Flock Fantasy on Travis Etienne

Part of five-RB strategy in first five picks; historically poor approach.

Travis Etienne was part of a team's strategy to draft five running backs in their first five picks (Genty, James Cook, ETN, Jacobs, Jerry Price). The source notes that historically, teams that draft five running backs with their first five picks in underdog drafts have performed poorly; with only three running back slots available in a starting lineup, this commits two of the first five picks to the bench every week minimum. However, the source also identifies Etienne as a value pick at pick 410 in reddraft leagues, part of a running back depth strategy where elite backs can be scooped at discount prices later in the draft.
