STILL been productive in the league for the long term. If you draft and lock down a QB who can be productive it’s much more likely that they’ll give you that decent production for a long tome than if you draft a RB who ends up being productive.

And yes, that’s also my point re: a QB’s success being more closely tied to the team around him. Remember my post was in response to whether there could be a tactical advantage to spend long term contract money on RBs than QBs. If you find a productive starting QB, that position is locked down for you for a good while and you can build around it. You can’t say the same with a RB - by the time you start building and get some other players, that tread is worn down.
