5 most overrated fantasy RBs

We're in the heat of draft season and that means the staff here at Pro Football Focus is busy churning out content to get you ready to dominate on draft day. When it comes to the running back position, it's important you nail down the early rounds because the position gets dicey very quick.

Last year, J.J. Zachariason of NumberFire looked into bust rates at the position and found that it grew exponentially after the top 24 RBs were drafted. In short, the position becomes a total crap shoot. What follows are five running backs currently being drafted among the top 30 that you should avoid at their current ADP.
