I posted on this boad before the draft that it would not bother me f the cowboys drafted all defense.. and 4 of the first 5 picks have been on defense. so you people who are freaking out about RB need to chill. this team did not need to be spending top picks on a RB. they are doing the right thing. this team has got to fix the pass rush and this defense. i love this draft. McFadden will be the main RB. and we already have decent back ups.

The running game last year is why the Cowboys went 13-4

The Cowboys werent in position to select a difference making RB that could carry the load this year. Gurley and Gordon were gone and selecting Coleman would have been a slight reach and we would have to pass on Gregory....

My only complaint is why not draft Ajayi in the 4th round? He had high 2nd round talent and is better than Randle. I dont care that he has a degenerative knee. We dont need to resign him after 4 years. Miami got a steal.

Get use to it. MaFadden is going to be fine behind this OL. you wanted to waste a pick on RB, when this team needed all defense. i am glade the cowboys saw it my way.

This team didn't need 2 more linebackers. This team needs a RB who can be counted on to stay healthy. We will see how glad you are when we return to missing out on the playoffs because we abandon our running game because of consistency issues.

They could have easily traded up to the early part of round 3 for Coleman.

Ajayi doesn't look better than Randle to me, not by a long shot.

I loved this draft. No moving around. Just sitting back, sipping Johnny walker and letting their players fall right into their laps with 1st 4 picks.

And yes we didn't get the a rb but 2 defensive studs and a very good jack of all trades Oline man who's only gonna get better more than makeup for passing on the run DMC clones that was the 2nd tier rb's

McFadden will rush for 1100 this year, Randle for 400, the rest for 150. will be OK.

I will be glade no matter what that they did not draft a RB. this team needed defense. and they went out and drafred defense. they got help for the DL,Secondary and LB. they did what i posted they should do in this draft. they drafted for help on defense. all you RB folks need to get over it.

Super glad they did Not take a RB in the first 3 rounds. Was hoping they would stick with def in the 4th as well. After the 4th i woudnt have cared if they took a RB or did not draft 1 at all.

I don't think he is. He'll be the third down guy. Randle was drafted two years ago to replace Murray, and it's looking like he'll get his shot. With Dunbar getting more looks and Williams getting a chance to push for playing time.

Highly doubtful Randle gets the start unless McFadden is out which could be often.

Do not
sweat it. we are just fine at RB. if McFadden can stay healthy. he will be outstanding behind this OL. Randell,Dumbar and Williams are good enough back-ups. i am so glade Jerry did what i thought he should do by going defense at the top of this draft. and saying no to the get a RB people.DEFENSE! DENSE!
