We've seen running backs be pushed down draft boards in recent seasons, but is that a mistake? On Part One of our RB Preview, we take a broad look at the position with our general thoughts and philosophies. We also talk about the great Christian McCaffrey (4:15) and if his age and workload are concerning, plus how many RBs should be drafted in the first round (7:45) ... What is our overall RB strategy this season (14:45)? Is RB actually safer than WR when we talk about the Top 12 in average draft position (23:25)? And how do we feel about RB/RB this season (28:15)? ... How our strategies change in different formats (35:35) plus sleepers (40:40) breakouts (44:15) and busts (48:15). We talk about Ty Chandler, Rico Dowdle, Bijan Robinson, Aaron Jones, Saquon Barkley and more. Then we take a look at our pick-by-pick series (55:15) and look at how we drafted RBs at different spots in the draft ... Email us at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com

Sam LaPorta has emerged as hopefully an elite option, but does Travis Kelce have another great season in him? Will the mid-round picks at tight end pay off? That could mean big seasons for Trey McBride, Kyle Pitts or Evan Engram. We'll give you our thoughts and our strategies (11:30) for TE in 2024 ... Which TE do we draft the most (20:30)? How early should LaPorta or Kelce be drafted? How important is it to have a Top 8 TE (23:30)? We discuss if the position is actually deep this year or you should try to get an established guy. We also talk about how our strategies change in different formats (26:55) ... Sleepers (28:05), breakouts (30:30) and busts (42:00)! We like Pat Freiermuth as a sleeper.
