I think this was a good move for the cowboys. I think he may be better than some think.
I agree. Doesn't mean no RB between 3-5 rounds though.
Think there's some quality there to look at still beyond the 1st 2
Genuine good guy. Living here in the DC area, it's hard to root against him personally.
Hopefully he has a little gas left in the tank
Personally I think they would have skipped RB at #4 without Morris, but that's just me. Might mean no RB in the 2nd or even 3rd now.
cant see why this is a bad thing. People can say what they want about the O-Lines "struggles" but they produced a 1,000 yard back for a guy nobody thought could play football anymore.
say what you want, he is better than Randle was last year. We are slightly better at RB than last year already.
That's why I don't understand why fans aren't on board with this. Last year, we rolled through Randle, Michael, Turbin, etc., without finding a back that to pair with McFadden. Here's a still fairly young back at 27 who has only played four seasons in the league and has averaged more than 4 yards per carry in three of his four seasons.
Yes, last year he average 3.7, but McFadden had average 3.7 or less for three years when we reclaimed him.
I would rather get a player like this whom we know can start than rely on getting that player in the draft unless we planned to draft someone like Elliot. Now, maybe that's the problem. Maybe the ones who are hurt wanted Dallas to draft Elliot, even if the likelihood of that happening has never been high.
I'd consider Collins from Arkansas.

The Mayowa and Morris news came in within seconds of each other. That's a ton of talent to take in at one time.
I've got to go lay down.
That's a distinct possibility considering they now have Morris and McFadden in place. Maybe they use that 4th round comp pick on a utility back like Prosise?
I'll say one thing for him. He's confident in his abilities. You don't sign off on competing with Darren McFadden unless you have an intense, almost maniacal, belief in yourself.

Considering Jerry's affinity to Razorbacks I may have to agree with you. But shhhh don't tell anyone. I have a rep to uphold.
I can definitely see Dallas drafting a back in the fourth round or lower, especially with Dunbar's injury and the fact that he's on a one-year deal and McFadden is in the last year's of his. I think this signing drops us out of the running for a back in the first three rounds, though.
