The Ezekiel Elliott holdout got us thinking. It’s more widespread than him. The NFL continues to devalue running backs in the modern era. Here’s a look at why with a bit of history mixed in.
The moral of the story? Teams have found out that they can get production from cheaper and younger running backs while having a tremendous amount of success on the field. That lessens the need to either draft a running back high or spend top dollar on a veteran at this position.If NFL teams weren’t hard-capped like Major League Baseball or the National Basketball Association, running back pay likely wouldn’t be an issue. Unfortunately, teams must find the best way to allocate their limited cap.
Though, this could very well be short lived. Rumors out of Western New York suggest that the Bills areand his $9.05 million cap hit while giving more touches to Singletary, who is slated to count a mere $754,000 against the cap in 2019. The majority of the 10 other playoff teams from a season ago have added even more fuel to the idea that running backs are being devalued in today’s NFL.
