Rico (Who was an undrafted FA) could and should have been the starter from day 1. If the Cowboys go into the season with Williams and Sanders as the 1-2 start and they are struggling and then decide to play the rookie RB's half way into the season it could be a failure like last season.
Almost 0%. Last time I checked, I think it was 26 of NFL starting RBs came from rounds 1-3.
What are you talking about? Who is even talking about Rico and who cares about one guy? What kind of point do you think that makes? Ryan Leaf was the number two pick in the draft and crashed and burned. You want to talk about what every single undrafted RB does in the NFL has done, then talk about Rico. Romo was undrafted too. That doesn’t mean I think some undrafted QB we bring into camp is going to be a starter. Every player we draft is a superstar each year.
Exceptions don't make points.
I don’t know if that is true or not but that is the point I’m making. I really like the pick and have high hopes for Blue but people need to tap the brakes. He wasn’t even the top guy on his college team. Let’s not write him off of course but let’s not put him in ink as a starter or even a guy getting 15 touches a game and specifically year one until we at least get to the preseason games
Not starting doesn't and being chosen in a later round doesn't always equal less talent to what's on the current roster. Rico proved that last year.
Shouldn't he play a down before Tony comparisons?Well, if Javonte Williams gets cut, hopefully Jerry gives Williams' #33 jersey to Jaydon Blue! That would definitely be more fitting since Blue's running style definitely resembles that of Tony Dorsett. It would also be a big/huge marketing move for Jerry.
Sell that historic #33 jersey for years to come, Jerry! $$$$$$$$$$
Javonte Williams is definitely not faster than Deuce Vaughn.
He’s slow.
