The positional value of running backs is up for debate again as pundits wonder where Bijan Robinson should be drafted, and if the Dallas Cowboys should take...
, the two highest-rated backs behind Robinson — the clear No. 1 — are Alabama’s Jahmyr Gibbs and Zach Evans, who finished at Mississippi after transferring from TCU.
Elliott’s production dropped off after he signed a $90 million, six-year extension in 2019, with the wear and tear from his early success often cited as the most plausible explanation. Gurley was out of the league before he was 27, and Elliott remains unsigned at the same age. Leonard Fournette, taken fourth overall the year after Elliott, was released by Tampa Bay in February. He’s 28.
The Giants got that career-best production on the fifth year of Barkley’s rookie contract, which is a team option. Now New York has to decide whether a long-term deal is the right play. “I don’t want to say it’s unfair,” said Robinson, who was sixth nationally with 1,580 yards rushing last season. “For me, it’s important to keep enjoying the moment because we might get to draft day and some surprise could happen.”
“We’ll find out a lot about what the running back position, how it’s viewed by NFL teams,” McShay said. “It’s hard to draft a guy that you have a late first, early second-round grade on, over a guy who’s a top-five prospect on just about every team’s board that I’ve talked to.”
