April 29, 201610 yr Not sure how the salaries shake out but if they can keep Elliot, Morris and McFadden they sure can trot a fresh top talented RB out there every play to operate behind that line. Romo has to be loving life.
April 29, 201610 yr Author If you're drafting a RB that high, he better be the next Barry Sanders or Jim Brown. Elliott is outstanding, but Sanders and Brown he ain't. UH, no one is Barry or Jim and no one will probably be like them.
April 29, 201610 yr Only way I see this pick making sense for the Cowboys is if they use Elliot to dominate possession time and protect their defense by playing keep-away.

He's going to be fine in that system and put up good numbers, but nothing special. They will probably run him into the ground for 3-4 years and let him go.

April 30, 201610 yr And the Dolphins get an A for drafting a guy smoking pot on video. Get over it they all smoke pot!
May 2, 201610 yr I think its a good solid pick. Do they have other needs, yes, but so do a lot of other teams. IMO they get a bad grade because its just the Cowboys. Ezekiel Elliott is the 3rd RB drafted in the top 20 by the @Dallascowboys. The other 2 are HOF'ers.#NerdNotes Dorsett and Emmit are the 2. They got a bad grade cause they are the cowboys? What? That is funny. The Cowboys are the media darlings of the nfl even though they have sucked since the 90s. If they got a bad grade it's because they may have deserved it. I guess cowboy fans are like my fellow UK fans and think everyone is out to get them. The love they get from the media is crazy for how bad they been for years.
August 26, 201610 yr Still on the road to draft bust status... Jerry Jones of Dallas Cowboys -- Ezekiel Elliott's pot store visit 'not good'
August 26, 201610 yr I'm sure one of those "random" drug test alerts will be waiting in his locker in the next day or two.
August 26, 201610 yr Author A grade D Looked like a D Dang good pick last night If you visit a pot store that dont mean you have to buy it. I go to Best Buy and look at TVs and dont buy one.
