when is the next year to draft rb

[sloth8u]

ive seen some discussion suggesting that the draft is rb heavy with early picks this year. that would suggest that we should be loading up now. this discussion pertains to both start up and rookie drafts......

any extra measures taken to ensure that you lock up rb in rookie drafts? i personally have made some moves to move up from my late 1sts. even if only a few spots. i realize its all about "value" right now...but is anyone else moving up to ensure you get a rb?

the same serves true for startups. there are a ton of rb's being valued very highly right now. i personally have not did a start up, but based on adp....the numbers are up.

i only bring up this year because it leads me to believe that there must be some truth to this "last chance rb" talk. for all you devy players out there....and anyone who diggs that deep....when can we expect to see plenty of rb talent in the draft?

Don't know. 2020 supposedly, but there are a few next year that could pop. David Montgomery certainly isn't a home run hitter, but he's got some serious vision and tackle breaking ability, as well as shiftiness in the hole. You get the right one, it's next year.

Ive also heard 2020 in a few places.

Next years got love and Harris’s who were IMO as good or better than the tier two guys this year, love was my 1.2 until he opted to return

Always subject to change, but as of now next year (2019 draft) is looking loaded with WRs, with the top RBs being guys that dropped out of this class and weren't quite at the top of the class if they had come out this year.

2020 has a ton of RBs featured very highly in a lot of Devy rankings and multiple guys that project as potential 1st round picks in the NFL draft.

It is too late unfortunately. According to this list of upcoming apocalyptic events, the next one is scheduled for June 2019 - so if you're looking to draft a RB - you're too late.

Someone really dislikes Gurley, Gordon and David Johnson (not to mention Ajayi, Duke & T. Coleman).

I was going to chime in on the same thought, surely it's a WR/RB yr with those hits.

2015, he clearly states year of the RB. Cooper was the only WR in the first round to be any good, Parker Kevin White etc were busts.

How so?

[ArrylT]

& the symbol means AND

So when you use the word AND you are grouping things together, not separating them.

So that reads as RB AND WR Busts (as in both are Busts).

2015 - Year of the RB & WR busts
