Just based on the numbers, running back was not a position at which the New York Giants needed to add a player in this year's draft. They rotated four running backs last year. All four are still on the roster. And they recently signed former Bucs running back Bobby Rainey.
But the Giants went ahead anyway and picked Paul Perkins in the fifth round. And if you follow the Giants, you know the draft picks make the team. They're obviously not likely to keep six running backs (or even five), so it's fair to wonder whose spot Perkins ends up taking.
