We can revisit this discussion in a couple years, but a promising, relatively-risky RB pick coming off an ACL tear seems like a luxury contending teams like the Chiefs/Eagles/Niners might pick.

Plug n' Play starter in the second round is total BS. Best shot at that is at OL. Scroll through the list of second round picks from 2023 and their number of starts for yourself.
