But this is just not true. People like to point to a handful of middle/late round picks and a couple of UDFA and act like good RBs are a dime a dozen. The fact is that those handful of decent RBs are out of dozens of RBs drafted in the middle late rounds and iundreds signed as UDFA. The odds are against being able to consistently find NFL quality RBs without using a first or second round pick every other year or so. For every success story you can point to I can find two failures.
