I don't see Gordon as fit for this offense. This is a run between tackles division. I like Coleman but he is 2nd-3rd round talent that Dallas probably has to use their #27 to get him. So if your going to over-slot a RB then Dallas should just go for the only sure thing in this draft and make run at Gurley. Anyway we look at it...Dallas has to get impact RB who can get you 2 yards on 3rd and 2 on road in philly in december and also be able to pick up blitzes effectively. If Dallas gets too cute here I think they are in for big surprise as to how much they miss Murray.
Gurley is FAR from a sure thing. Coming off an injury, doesn't have the stamina to be a workload RB. Gordon ran behind a line very similar to the one we have now.
What would I do in this draft? If Gordon is there at 27, you take him. If not? Wait until the end of the second and see what RB out of the top 6 is left. I'm confident that Yeldon will be there and I'm perfectly fine grabbing him, a great RB with elite vision and burst in the open field. He'll slide due to "fumbling issues" most likely.
