You clearly didn't watch the recent Sport Science segment on him. They compared his lateral agility to that of LeSean McCoy. At 6 foot 220 plus pounds that is amazing.

I gotta say, I like Zeke, but I felt the same watching tape on him. So many of his runs were off play action/option, it's really hard to get a feel for his actual ability.

You do have to take in consideration that with the Cowboys offensive line and their system, he will have a whole lot more opportunity, I believe, to show off his abilities.

He is 20 years old and has less mileage than the backs others are suggesting later.

That said, the Lawrence thing has likely blown this out of the water and McShay is a day late. Dallas will almost certainly take a DL at 4.

Another thing with Zeke is he has the body type and playing style conducive to a long career. Guys like Gurley and Henry, freaks that they are, just don't last as long

I had thought there was a chance if on one QB went before us at 4 and we passed that we would have had a small shot at Lynch falling to us at 34 or late in the first in a trade up. With 2 qbs going 1 and two...it is not happening and I would bet Lynch goes top 15.

It goes through the mouth all the same, the only difference is whether your mouth is open. Seems redundant

It's a figure of speech. It's supposed to give a different connotation (being in disgust of something and throwing up a little) than vomit projectile. People often swallow if they throw up "in their mouth" whereas you can't do that if you are puking outside.

Anyway, go Gowboys!

If SD picks Ramsey, that means Tunsil falls to our lap. Valley Ranch is sure to get some calls for that pick. If we do trade, I don't want to trade outside the top 10.

He's got Ramsey going to San Diego and he's got Bosa going to Jacksonville.

Jax could very well get Norman as well. I'm in the camp which thinks Bosa will be a lot better than solid, so Jax could be building something.

If SD takes Ramsey, either we get the best player in the draft, or we get some nice trade offers. Elite LTs have some value in this league.
