Me too I am ready for some smash mouth offensive football. I am excited about Luepke in an Allstot tipe role. And the way Dallas drafted, it looks like they may have that very thing in mind.Dallas may fool everyone and become a balanced offense, we know we can throw the ball.
He should get a lot of snaps in the preseason.
Hunter Luepke- 6-1, 238 lbs
It's about time to see what Luepke can do. If you're gonna pay him and give him a spot on the roster, then give him a chance to show what he can do.
At 5-03"? Dude is a joke.
Elliott is making $3 million. Dowdle is making $1.2 million. Follow the money. Zeke is your lead back. Dallas isn't paying Elliott a couple million more than Rico to just be the short-yardage and goal-line back.
Vaughn has the best chance of being a change-up to Elliott, but it's hard to figure out his role. Is he good enough in pass protection to be the third-down option? Not based on last year. I think Vaughn has to seize the backup back from Dowdle, and I don't know if he'll get that chance. Right now, he's got to beat out Freeman for the third back role, and that may depend a lot on special teams.
we saw him play behind the b and c team line when teams were keyed in on the run. i don’t have a ton of faith in him, but he is talented and the line is vastly improved. i think there’s going to be some wrinkles in the playbook for him and hunter
i do t think that’s enough money to follow.
I think you always have to follow the money. We're paying Dowdle to be a backup. What we're paying Elliott is what this front office thinks a starting RB is worth.
You’re wrong.
Luepke stated after last season MM asked him to get up toward 250
I'm dead serious. He only got a handful of carries in a poor blocking scheme and horrible play calling when he was in there. He was given no chance to succeed. NONE. There was no scheme for him like Big Mike said there would be. They put him in obvious run plays and consistently got hit at the LOS. It was ridiculous the situation they put him in. It was extremely disappointing the lack of plan the Cowboys had for him. It's the HC's job to put players in a position to be their best and he screwed the pooch with Deuce.
Yeah, he can be the type of fullback McCarthy has had before and that would be good for both our running and passing game. Depending on Schoonmaker's development, I really wouldn't mind seeing us use a fullback set more than a two-tight end set, especially if we're going to try to establish a power running game up the middle.
23 carries for 40 yards, 1.7 ypc in 2023. Got a few chances and did basically nothing with them. Even for a rookie, that's pretty bad....
