Matt Waldman's RSP Cast discusses his tiers for the 2022 NFL Draft Running Back prospects — a class with a lot of high-ceiling backs — and covers what matters in is scouting of the position. 

Reminder: If you haven't already, please check out John Hodgins' GoFundMe story. He and his wife tried to recover on their own from a violent crime that cost them their retirement home and have been living day-to-day for too long. Even sharing their GoFundMe can be helpful, so please visit, read his story, and donate. I have.

This week's Pod:

* Why the state of the NFL running back and this class generates an odd situation.

* Why this class could be as good as as the Barkley-Chubb or McCaffrey-Fournette classes but has a trap-door floor.

* Defining and explaining the details of vision, mobility, acceleration vs. speed, and contact balance.

* Notable positives and flaws from Tier I.

* The difficult evals, boom-bust athletes, and sneaky technicians from a large Tier II.

* The fit-based backs of Tier III: A natural, a bulldozer with sweet feet, and a do-it-all back who just might not do any of it well enough.

* Two Tier III options might be late bloomers.

* Players I didn't like as much as the billing I've seen on them.

* Players who have something to their games that might help them surprise as contributors or quality reserves.
