To help you prepare for your salary cap leagues, we've hit on a few aspects of running back strategies already.

Starting RB Allocations
Should You Target Elite RBs?
Should You Target Committee RBs?

Today, we'll close the position with a trio of spending-specific questions. You'll have a better idea of how much to spend on running backs, how to deplete your competition, and where to find value.

Note: All answers assume the following criteria:

• Start 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, 1 TE
• 4-point passing TDs
• $200 cap
• 12 teams

Running Back Spend

How much of your cap will you allocate for running backs? How much of that will go to your two starters?

Ben Cummins: I plan on allocating around 30% of my cap to the running back position and the majority of that going to my two starters.

Jason Wood: I'm flexible but ideally looking to allocate 35%-45% of my budget to the running back position, with 20%-25% earmarked for my starters.

Jeff Bell: I like to live around 25% on a hero running back and then play with another 15-25% on cheaper RB2 options.

Andrew Davenport: I'm spending far less on the position than most. I'm fine with 20% of my cap on my RB1 (I'd like it to be a bit lower, but ~$35-$40 is ideal), but then I don't want to spend more than another $25-$30 total on the rest of my running backs and about $15 of that is for my RB2.
