News: It's Zeke

[tyke1doe]

Could have traded back and still had him. IMO! Not severely disappointed. I think he is a good player but Why not get an extra pick? Jax and Balt way too smart to take RB here.

We could have?

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

When was the last time a top 5 RB was a good pick? I'm worried about longevity. RBs these days are a dime a dozen and with the wear and tear they don't last long.

Obviously Zeke is an incredible talent, but taking ANY RB at 4 just isn't smart. I hope I'm wrong, but Ramsey should've been the pick.

Don't live in the past. Waste of time.

CBS SPORTS Pete Prisco (doing draft analysis), gave us a D. lol.

Ezekiel Elliott | RB, Ohio State
Height: 6-0 Weight: 225
Good player. Too high. Other needs. Bad pick. He´s a back.

Who cares.

 

[tyke1doe]

To everyone I argued with about picking Zeke with the 4th overall pick, I apologize. You were right. Am I forgiven?

It's all good. Nobody knew for sure, even we who believed the Cowboys would take Zeke.

As the top RB prospect in each of the last two years, and the fact that we couldn't get Gurley last year (at all) but somehow, luckily ended up with Elliott this year, I'd like to 'hear' folks' thoughts on a comparison between the two. Naturally, Gurley has one season under his belt and it was impressive one while EE has yet to play a down in the NFL... but do people think we got the better of the two or not or just different type of runners.

?


(is it okay to make a Zeke thread now?)

Elliott is better in blitz pickup no question. Seems his vision is better too

 

[Craig]

Gurley is an NFL running back. Elliott is a 4th round draft pick. Lets revis this in november at the earliest.

 

[tyke1doe]

I think we just drafted Rookie Of the Year.

Just watch.

I plan to draft him No. 1 or No. 2 in my fantasy league.

Two part answer:

No - because Gurley is the better runner of the two.
Yes - Because Zeke is the better overall running back when you consider all of his other qualities and he has the potential to actually log better production than Gurley because of the team he is on and the teams he will face in this division by comparison to who the Rams face in the NFCW.

Well i could say its a mistake, but instead id say thats what his value is...the point in tge draft where you can still get quality backs.

Good thing nobody else thinks that.

Only a moron would think that Zeke has 4th round value.

 

[Teague31]

No one else at this spot would have helped the whole teams like Zeke will

 

[fishspill]

Sells the most jerseys. That's all management cares about in Romo's last 2 years.

 

[JoeKing]

tbh I prefer picking Leonard Fournette next year.

Helps jerrys bottom line. Zeke Jerseys will fly of the shelf..

 

[Spectre]

I HIGHLY doubt we'd be in position to take Fournette next year... unless we go 0-16.

 

[SDCowboy]

I don't really follow this guy that closely. Is he as amazing as the excitement seems to suggest?

 

[big dog cowboy]

Eric Dickerson's single season rushing record is officially on the clock!

Zeke won't get enough carries for that.
