DID NOT SEE THAT MOVE COMING!

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Well, another one bites the dust.

The IR list is filling up.

if I'm the Cowboys I only go with two running backs on the roster too try to save some spots on the defense for the final 53

 

[jazzcat22]

Well, does this mean Hard Knocks star Hardy and his glasses made the team?

 

[Teague31]

No worries. We’ve got Ralston

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Well, that complicates things. 2 RBs and a FB or pick up a cut RB. Or go get Peterson or Bell?

Well, they did use Ralston on 2 runs for a 1st down last game. So maybe they will use him more.

This is where I liked Olanilua at FB, he has some juice to him and can be used as a RB in this situation. But his is on IR now.

Cancel the opening game.

 

[cowboyblue22]

thats a surprise

Here's the leaked depth chart for week 1.

1. Ralston
2. Zeke
3. Pollard


We good.

What in the actual hell?

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

I like this kid. He runs hard.

I've been unimpressed with him this preseason honestly. Was more impressed with him last year. Kinda the opposite of Rush.

Seems crazy to me when I see how easy it is to draft or just grab even UDFA RBs, and this team acts as though it has to develop and discover a RB3.
Patriots just traded Sony Michel to the Rams for some draft picks..
Rhamondre cost them a 4th, but when you can turn your roster and find valuable weapons in the 4th round, it makes underachievers expendable, especially when you get draft picks back in trade.
Bill got him a backfield of RBs, he doesnt waste much time trying to find an RB3, he just understands that its the easiest positional advantage, because there are so many, plentiful.
We would be doing back flips if the Cowboys had drafted Rhamondre,, this forum would be dumping on Zeke faster than the price on bad crypto coins.

It’s a stash for sure. They want an extra DL or CB/S on the roster but there’s no way Dowdle gets to the PS.

 

[cowboyec]

when did he get hurt?
didnt see any indication in the texans game.

He went on IR. He is done for the year.
