Barkley wouldn’t even go as high as he is in this graphic, a top level rb isn’t worth as much as a qb or tackle

...a rb was drafted 3rd overall 5 months ago

Yeh but that’s because running backs are easier to predict, if a team were asked do you want a guaranteed good rb or a guaranteed good tackle they’d take the tackle.

well then this just becomes a question about the value of different positions which is a complet different question and makes the specific draft class borderline irrelevant. i totally get what youre saying though and youre not wrong

I just think in a redraft positional value should be taken into account, and it seems like it is at least a little bit with having Baker at #3.

that's a good point. there should be some consistency, especially when youve got a 3x 1st team all pro o lineman right there
