Running Backs
Running backs constitute the most vital position on your
fantasy football team.
You must pay special attention to your draft picks for
the RB position because there is a chasm between the effectiveness of
the top rushers and the average or lower running backs.
Average quarterbacks who play on poor teams can benefit from
moving down the field against prevent defenses, but running backs don't
have this luxury.

You normally should draft a running back in the first round and
definitely as one of your first 2 picks. Heed these tips when
you select a RB for your fantasy football team.
- A RB who carries the ball in regular and goal-line
situations will score more points.
- A RB on a team with a strong defense will carry the ball in
the 4th Qtr to wear down the defense and to run out the clock.
- A RB who is the featured back garners more attempts than a
RB who shares rushing duties.
- A RB who is also a good pass receiver will gain receiving
yards in addition to rushing yards.
- A RB with a skillful offensive line has more chances to
break a long run.
