NFL Best Ball Strategy: Running Back Targets, Fades, and Late-Round Values

Next up in RotoWire's Best Ball Strategy series is the running back position as John McKechnie and Mario Puig dig into the entire group of RBs being drafted. The guys tackle the tough first-round decision between Breece Hall and Bijan Robinson, and identify their favorite picks from the Josh Jacobs/Derrick Henry/Travis Etienne/Isiah Pacheco tier and the Zamir White/D'Andre Swift/Steelers backfield tier. Rounding it out, the guys discuss which players to target from unsettled backfields like the ones in Carolina, Cincinnati and Washington.
