To me a running back is more valuable than a tight end and we could have our pick at the bottom of the 1st.

Tight ends tend to take a while to develop.
Running backs are good to go right away.

Running backs are used on at least 1/3 of our plays.
Tight ends get 3 catches per game, but do block as well.

All this makes me lean towards running back in the 1st and tight end on day 2.
Add to this how attractive it is to get a 5th year option with an explosive back (making the salary cap work paying WR1,2 and QB1.

I much prefer a rookie running back to a veteran running back. Running backs fall off a cliff quick with injuries.
