There is no question Elliott is a very good RB but is his talent going to waste and should Dallas draft another RB to rotate with him?
Watching all the playoff games I see teams constantly rotating the RBs to keep them fresh so they always have that burst in their legs and run hard EVERY play. An awful lot of these RBs are catching passes and having big gains. Dallas needs to find a way to get zeke the ball in space and stop using him as a constant battering ram in the middle. They also need to find another RB to rotate with Zeke.
Garrett needs to look film of all these teams in the playoffs and get some ideas on how to be creative with their RBs. Dak is not a QB thats gonna pick apart a secondary so the short passing game is going to be very important to his confidence. All he should be perfecting over the summer is short passes to the RBs so that he can hit them in stride. It appears when teams took away Beasley Dak would struggle. Thats where having Zeke work the middle would free up Beasley because Zeke would draw a LB in coverage which is a mismatch zeke should win and then Beasley wont be doubled. This short passing game needs to be honed and get the ball in the play makers hands. If Garrett can get this short game humming then Dak can take his shots down field!
