This past year many would agree that the draft was heavy with talent at running back. (when compared to other positions) We have what we homers would like to think a full stable of capable running backs. Some would argue that it is a top 5 or 10 group of backs, but top 15 would be a safe estimation. (For Now) It seems to me that running back is turning into a position that most teams have taken care of. There were a number of backs out there that were proven, yet few teams took interest in i.e. Shaun Alexander and Travis Henry.
My question is, will we see a refinement in the position and how it is used in NFL formations? Will more than one running back on the field at once become more common? Will the position become more versatile? If so, how? The Tight End position is seeing some evolution, is Running Back next?
Correction: when I say running back, I am referring to halfback. Can someone explain the difference, if any, between halfback and the H-back term used sometimes to describe Witten and other tight ends on occasion?
