Sticking to your guns will only leave you with middle talent across the board.
The RB-RB strategy actually involves trying to get a top-tier RB and a good 2nd-tier RB. It's harder to find 2 quality RBs than 2 quality WRs, so you should grab 2 good RBs if they are available.

You're right, though. You shouldn't reach for a guy like Ahman Green or Julius Jones just to get 2 RBs.
