Bell's combine height and weight was 6' 1", 230 lbs.

Dennis Johnson will be a steal wherever he goes.

I agree, he's one of my favorites.

I would draft Bell in the fourth and take DJ as a UDFA.

Example...Albert Morris was a workhorse who ran a 4.65 and did wonders for the Skins as a one cut physical runner. (6th round)
I agree. Using several backs doesn't allow the RB to really get into the flow of the game and many RBs needs that. Since this has become a passing game, I don't buy into the notion that the one RB can't handle a full load.

If Bell is there inthe 3rd round you take him... Hell I wouldn't be mad at Jerry if he took Bell inthe 2nd round.

Dallas finished almost dead last in rushing last year inthe NFL.. Cowboys need a solid running game in order to excel in this league.

You get a solid running game by addressing the offensive line. I would rather they spend their 2nd and 3rd rounders on linemen.
