I think Ryan Williams is the RB, perhaps with McFadden

[Tawney88]

We'll probably draft a rb. A good one, somwhere in the upper rounds even.
But realistically, rookies are rarely given such a siginificant workload in their initial pro season.
The player has to really be something/someone special to be featured heavily, and they have to be trusted with pass protection, a grasp of the playbook, chemistry, timing, etc. These things usually just don't work that way.

I see a Ryan Williams led backfield, with McFadden... or McFadden, with Williams (depending)... while a rook may serve in a complimentary role, perhaps increasing- depending on performance. But the aforementioned two getting the bulk of the carries in a hot hand approach- both being serviceable behind this great o-line.

Primary rb will be drafted. The backs on the roster are auxiliary backs at best. A rookie rb can come I and start without issue. Easiest position to transition to as a pro. You people are over thinking this.

He played last preseason and looked really good.

His college game footage was better than many of the RBs in the current draft that people are drooling over.

I agree. I think they wanted one year to get him strong and healthy again and let him learn the system. I think 2015 was the plan for him from the start unless Murray went down with a season ending injury.

I think McFadden will have every opprotunity to win the starting gig... unless we take someone in the 1st round. i also think Randle will be the one that doesnt make it in the end.

This draft will be about the defense....Mcfadden is going to be the starter....

thats scary.

there is a good chance any of these three don't make it out of camp (all for separate reasons): Williams, Randle. McFadden. This is one of deepest RB drafts I have seen in while. There is no sugar coating this. Dallas will need to nail the RB pick or Peterson gets cut and lowers his contract demands to play in Dallas. Those are your only two options for Cowboys to return to playoffs. I see McFadden as nothing more than your 3rd down back.

Until there's a explanation on why Ryan Williams was 3rd on the depth chart behind Randle and Dunbar I have to believe that won't change this year either. Maybe until after preseason.

If Dallas gets no RB in this draft or get AP, then Ryan Williams, McFadden and Randle will be RBBC. And that is not encouraging news. The running game is the lifeblood of the 2015 offense with this OL, and I don't believe they will leave it up to these 3 backs to win the SB. The two best ones in camp will be the backups.

That's why I keep saying, do not underestimate the interest Dallas has on AP. If it comes down to it, they will give Minnesota a 4th round pick and Minnesota will like it. And no, they will not pay AP $12 mil or even $10 mil. per. They will work it out somehow.
