That information typically comes from leaning on longtime sources during campus visits or digging back to high school, if needed.

"I've tried in the past. Honest, I've tried to trade back," Gettleman insisted with a laugh when asked about his track record. "But it's got to be value. I'm not getting fleeced. I refuse to do it. If someone wants to make a bad trade back, God bless them."Carolina Panthers

Before they arrived in Mobile, many scouts thought of Meinerz as a quality developmental prospect who finished plays with a coveted nasty streak.

It doesn't take much digging to find plenty of evidence against taking running backs in the first round. Of the NFL's top 20 rushers last season, only two -- Josh Jacobs (Raiders) and Clyde Edwards-Helaire (Chiefs) -- were drafted in the first round. Of the 17 running backs selected in the first round since 2010, only four have had an All-Pro season. Meanwhile, stars such as Derrick Henry (Titans), Alvin Kamara (Saints) and Aaron Jones (Packers) -- drafted in the second, third and fifth round, respectively -- are proof teams can find starting-caliber backs later in the draft.
