I bet he wins rookie of the year.

He'll be the betting favorite. Really, the Cowboys are his only hurdle. They only way he isn't ROY is if he just doesn't get enough playing time.

But being picked 4th overall should officially kill this RBBC stuff. Please. For the love of God. I've lost Carsus. I will lose any shred of sanity I have left if I have to watch Elliott split time with Lance Dunbar. This can not happen.

Ramsey was BPA. I would have been happy with Elliot had we traded back 4 or 5 spots and picked up an extra high pick and then picked Elliot. I guess we have to capitulate to our piss poor coaching situation that Jerry refuses to fix.

Well be behind in most games with our defence.

Defence isnt that bad. Id have liked to help it out there, but we'll see how the rest of the draft goes. Its not like they got a bad player

Someone explain to me the logic in upgrading a position that had a top 5 RB in the league last year who did not have a QB worth a damn to back defenders off the LOS or start the first four games.

They upgraded that position with the #4 pick? It's just not logical,.

Zeke wasn't my choice, but the offense will be incredible. We will see some long TD runs and he will have a great career behind our line.

Now we'd better go Defense, Defense, and more Defense next two days.

I agree this pick will have the biggest immediate impact. Even a top WR wouldn't have had near as much an impact with Dez the #1 and the Romo's undying commitment to Witten. Maybe not the best move for the future of the organization but definitely the biggest impact in 2016.

We had an offer to go to 6?

Should have taken it.

If Ramsey and Elliott were the only ones we were considering at that point, I disagree with you. Dallas was in position for an elite talent this year. Don't trade lower than the players you deem elite.

Of course, that could have included Tunsil, but I don't think he was a consideration.

Deion to Ramsey after he was selected: Are you happy right now?

Are you ******** me, Dieon?!?! Is that the best you could come up with?

This is the team that didn't start Collins immediately.

A lot of folks just dont seem to realize that this choice extends the career of Tony Romo. He will be in far less types of situations where he is in peril.

This pick plays to the Cowboys greatest strength. They now have a power running game like no other.

The last time the Cowboys draft a RB that high he took them to the Super Bowl his rookie year.

Or get a real HC/OC, but either way is cool:D;)

Leave it to Dallas to draft a running back the one time they have a top pick. Not even a generational talent. Glad we spent so many resources on a line

Remember this when we are winning games and going places. We drafted an IMPACT PLAYER. Thats what you draft in the top 5.
