Throwing a lot of money at RB's is crazy....you really can find 3 stars who in the right offense can serve the same purpose. But part of the game now is winning these battles so you win others later.
Its like the NFL...unless a truly generational talent comes along if you draft a back in the first round you wasted a pick
Ehhh...Not so much in college. RB are still more impactful in cfb. Now can you still find a good 3-star of course. But it's not like the NFL where their importance has decreased overall.
