To quote the big tuna "it's a disposable position" and the "true test of a running back is durability."

People criticized parcells a few years back for not taking Stephen Jackson, trading back & getting J. Jones in the 2nd. I think they got barber the next year. Parcells knew that he could fill the position well without using his 1st round pick.
