I am not even sure if you knew you were getting the rookie version of AP you would take him 4th overall. Well maybe you would but its probably not something that will get you in the playoffs that first year.
As good as a running back may be they are no longer able to carry a NFL team.

Grantland did a good article on the value of draft value by position.
How can you tell which NFL draft picks are truly valuable? - Grantland
I'm an old school, run first, defensive kind of guy, but I do think picking 4th for a RB is too high.
