News: It's Zeke

[Redball Express]

In a league where offense is protected,in a team with an aging QB,a stud WR,a dominant OL,it was mandatory to select a 3 down back.
No other player would have had the immediate impact Zeke will have in Dallas.None.

I think we just drafted Rookie Of the Year.

Just watch.

Yup played some DE his first year at Ohio State

I like the player, but we need help on defense, we didn't need another rb.

I think we just drafted Rookie Of the Year.

Just watch.

Yeah behind this line, I'll buy that.

Great player. Terrible pick. He would've been there at 9-10. Could've traded down, gotten another pick or two and still picked him.

Classic Jerry

Love it. 1500 yards coming up. And our defense just got better. They will be on the field much less

We got our guy. Do you know there were good enough offers to give up EE for? Was there an offer at all??? ummmm

Here's why I say this…

I think we can all agree that we are not really a 4-12 team. Romo has a few years left and we are still in win now mode. I think Ramsey was the highest guy on our board, but he wasn't our biggest immediate need. If we were in rebuild mode, Ramsey would have been the no-brainer.

What we needed is exactly who we drafted. We need to create that same trio we had in the early 90s, and the same tree we got a glimpse of two years ago. He makes everybody's job easy, including Romo.

This guy has a nose for touchdowns, and is a short yardage machine. Teams can no longer double Dez, and he's going to open up so many lanes for Romo.

I wanted Ramsey just slightly more, but I'm definitely not disappointed with Zeke!

 

[Eddie]

Where's the PICture ???

 

[JoeKing]

I'm still disappointed. Zeke is going to have to win me over.

 

[Sydla]

Again do people not realize that the 90s triplets also had an elite defense paired with it?

 

[logan]

Bottom line, no one in this draft puts Tony Romo closer to the Super Bowl than Zeke Elliot..

 

[endersdragon]

If he can keep Romo healthy, this team will be near the top of the league this year.

 

[lqmac1]

Where's the PICture ???

Lol I just noticed.

 

[Zekeats]

I'm still disappointed. Zeke is going to have to win me over.

Don't worry. He will.

Speculation is fun. They wanted him, they got him. No need to gamble and take chances.

 

[Nightman]

I'm lovin it......

 

[knightrider94]

Irvin and Smith must be proud right now! They pushed for this pick.

Not disappointed, not thrilled. It's a B pick.

 

[Craig]

Hopefully they continue the trend they started and fill other important needs tomorrow. Like guard and kicker. Always room to improve.

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.
