Likelihood of trade/waiver wire addition of RB?

[Cumart21]

Go through camp and see what the guys on the roster can do, then reassess if necessary. I'd be more worried about the OL depth than the RB depth.

Ronald Jones will have a bigger role than most fans expect.

I suspect that may be true, but even though Jones is a physical runner for his size, he's still pretty small.

how do you know?? you believe everything you read they in fact never said they were interested,,

the story stated the lions brought the idea to the cowboys, nothing happened= WERE NOT INTRESTED, jeez , you are one easy to influence sm viewer. kudos to them for getting a bust for a 7th that may not even make their team NOTE Sarcasm LOL

Not going back and forth, NO MO TALK! Lions got him and that is all that needs to be said. We will see how he does.

I'm concerned about both, I don't even feel comfortable with our starting center who somehow got into the pro bowl.

I read these comments and still wonder... why are Cowboys fans the only ones who have a RB ranking system that starts with "Can he pass protect?" .... not "Can he find holes".."How is his vision".. "Does he make the first tackler miss?" or even "Can he go out on routes and catch the ball" NOPE we want to know can our RB Pass protect....jesus this ranks up there with "We need 5 all pro's at Oline with 5 Pro bowlers as backups" conditioned much by a GM who couldn't say anything else about the contract he gave an RB that was too much "Look at how he pass protects" (in my best JJ voice).

Then don't, apparently you don't understand the fact that you read things about the Dallas Cowboys daily that have no validation that it came from the Cowboys themselves....


it literally said the lions contacted the Cowboys, that's it ,never said the Cowboys contacted them back or even had a conversation... if you don't understand that and I don't know how to help you, you believe too much stuff on social media almost every player released or up for a trade or in the draft is somehow connected to the Dallas Cowboys....

if you haven't figured that out by now again you are a lost cause.

So, in my opinion the Cowboys were never interested and I could care less what happens with the guy... the whole we will see sounds like maybe you knew this kid in college and you've been following him a while because if not the dudes is a bust in the NFL at this point...

Man, PEACE AND ONE LOVE!

Love Tony Pollard and Deuce Vaughn as big play guys but it feels like the cowboys are light @ RB. Would like to see a punishing RB in the lineup...

To be fair, I think DV is headed to the practice squad.

He has a lot going against him. He's little and he cant block.

RB1 TP
RB2 RJones
RB3 ?

 

[DuncanIso]

According to the FO, it's zero.
1. Tagged pollard who should be healthy to start the season.
2. Malik showed a little something last year
3. Signed free agent vet
4. Drafted a late round RB who can catch. Also signed a full back after the draft.

Why would they sign anyone else right now before TC or pre season games? You have to at least wait till camp at this point.

RJones has more rushing TDs than Pollard.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Zeke did put up over 800 yards last season and 12 TDs.

Had the proper number of those carries gone to Pollard like they should have, he would have put up bigger numbers.

ZERO chance of that.

 

[KJJ]

He got the proper number of carries, he had a career high in carries, yards and TDs. The way we used him allowed him to have a Pro Bowl season. Some of you want him to carry most of the load and he’s not going to be as effective if that happens and he won’t stay healthy. He and Zeke provided a good one-two punch last season.

 

[charron]

RJones has more rushing TDs than Pollard.

Not an RJ fan. He's ok but his best days are behind him, not a good short yardage guy either. Rather use malik

 

[Texasfootball21]

Hopefully one of these guys can pickup the blitz. Zeke did things behind the scenes that kept plays alive.
