It won't be McFadden unless he is injured.

Morris is not a good blocker or receiver.

Oddly, if Zeke misses a game Morris could go from #4 to #1 at RB because his style fits better as a lead RB than backup.

Agreed.

Darren McFadden can also help as a kick returner in a pinch.

Alfred Morris is a better alternative as the lead back if Ezekiel Elliott were to miss time for any reason, but Run DMC is best suited to be #2 with Zeke playing.

I have figured all along OBJ would play but if his ankle was still sore yesterday, he isn't playing. You risk losing him for another 4-6 weeks. It would be foolish to play him before he gets 100% healthy.

Particularly in a contract year, although it doesn't really matter - I think he's done enough in his young career to justify whatever a team is going to pay him.

I think he plays, as a decoy. They'll give him certain routes to run, just to get cb coverage on him to free up other guys.

If he does, set him up with an easy catch and then gang tackle him... with Oscan going low of course.

Right. A team is going to put a player on the field as a decoy. It will be immediately obvious that's he can't contribute but, hey, let's try some highschool nonsense instead of using the spot for someone to have meaningful snaps
Happens all the time. Most recently with Julio Jones.
