No, especially considering that a 1st round running back is going to see far more snaps than a linebacker in a 5-2.
For example, the Patriots had a 1st round RB when they won the Super Bowl against the Rams in Sony Michel. The Rams had a 1st round running back in Gurley in the 2018 Super Bowl and on and on and on.
Just because some teams might be able to find a running back later in the draft doesn't mean that those teams are going to win a Super Bowl.
There's not a chance in hell that the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl this year with Darrel Williams, DeAndre Washington and Darwin Award Thompson.
