Craig reviews three different draft expert rankings for running backs and finds a consensus on the top prospects: Ashton Jeanty and Omarion Hampton. He argues that unless one of those two is available at pick 29, the Commanders shouldn’t use their first-round selection on a running back. While Craig acknowledges Washington’s need to draft a back at some point—given that they have no RBs under contract for 2026—he believes the depth of this class makes it unnecessary to reach in Round 1.
