August 28, 201610 yr 6.9 YPC decent debut against the #1 run defense last year. While I agree, I never put too much stock in any pre-season performance. I'm not a fan of the guy yet, but I hope he makes me one this year!

October 9, 20169 yr I rescind everything I said about Elliott. He has been the man so far this season. I think it boosted his career that I picked him in fantasy football so I'm taking full credit.

To be fair many runningback would look great behind that line. However what he does fits perfectly in this system.
October 9, 20169 yr I'm actually becoming a big fan...but don't tell @John Anthony You gotta do something to make up for your call lol. Gonna go down in infamy.
October 9, 20169 yr And to think some on here said I should be fired, when I picked Zeke in the BGP Draft. :popcorn:
October 9, 20169 yr You gotta do something to make up for your call lol. Gonna go down in infamy. I drafted him and Carlos Hyde in fantasy football (two teams!). You have any idea how hard it was to do that? :lo2l:

You have any idea how hard it was to do that? :lo2l: Hyde was good and has been a solid NFL back but watching Zeke run in person for 2 years, live in the shoe, felt like you were watching a LaDainian Tomlinson like talent. Hyde is not on Elliott's level.
November 14, 20169 yr Author I have really enjoyed going back and re-reading some of these doubting comments. Yo all know just as much about drafting a guy as the experts who gave this a D.
December 20, 20169 yr Author I can remember when the pick was supposed to be so bad because they passed on Jalen Ramsey, CB from Fla St. He was 5th pick for Jacksonville and has 1 INT Im thinking Elliot has done more for the Cowboys than Ramsey for the Jags.

Zeke has probably done more, but that is in large part because of the amazing offensive line in front of him. He's a stud though and was definitely worth the high pick. As for the number of interceptions that Ramsey has, I don't think they throw is way all that often. @GrizzlyAdams could probably spout off some stats, but I think Ramsey has been a solid member of their improved defense.

By next year Ramsey will be a top 5 corner. Yesterday he was PFF number 2 player in the league. He has defended every single number 1 WR the Jags have played against and done it very well. Rookie CB has gone against Randall Cobb, Steve Smith Sr, TY Hilton, Amari Cooper, Nuk x2. I could keep going but I wont. Jaguars are awful but have a top 5 pass defense and he is the main reason. Kid will be a star in this league. It's not a perfect video but you will see him make a tackle at the 6 second mark that I have seen very very corners ever make, preventing Hopkins from reaching the first down. Link
December 20, 20169 yr Wow, I think I'll spend the rest of the day revisiting old threads where I was right in hindsight. :jump:
