Official Take Ezekiel Elliott at 4 Bandwagon Thread

[al124]

Drafting Zeke is the quickest way to fix our defense - indirectly, of course. Seems to be a great kid too.



Hopefully one of the better pass rushers or DBs will be there at 34. The thing that'll be interesting is if Paxton Lynch is still there at that pick..

 

[Gaede]

Yes, I'm all in on Zeke at 4.

None of these defensive guys will impact our team like Zeke will, in 2016 or 2019.

You get a chance to draft a franchise player, albeit at RB, you take it. The playmaking quality he offers the team is far more valuable than a starting LDE or DB who doesn't turn the ball over.

Our Super hopes are way higher imo with Zeke than any defensive player we get imo

 

[kazzd58]

Love Elliott, but not at 4.
Can understand why some do, and I wouldn't whine if we did

Because some of of us actually want to win games and a talent like him at 4 is more than ok with me

Sickening

Can you name anyone on this entire forum that doesn't want to win games?
Other than the loitering Skins fan.

When the year starts and as long as we are actually competing for a playoff spot EVERY fan should be rooting for nothing but wins. With that said, I was firmly on team tank last season when it became apparent we were done and wanted to lose every game thereafter.

This is good. Love watching in depth videos about the prospects. You can get a good feel for what they're all about.

I see so much Emmitt in Zeke. From the body type, to the playing style, to the competitiveness.

 

[GroundZero1970]

I'm in the Zeke train

 

[QT]

I'm on the bandwagon, but prefer to trade down to 8 if Cleveland is willing so we can get and extra 2nd or 3rd. Read my sig on Ramsey.

 

[JoshAu99]

Im all in for Elliott if Ramsey is gone. I think trading down would be a mistake because Elliott will be gone in the top 10. McFadden and Morris cant be relied on to stay healthy, and Dallas will end up sign journeyman RBs off the street like it did in 2015. Drafting at No. 4 will allow Dallas to draft an impact player and I feel Elliott is an impact player. More so than a Bosa or a Buckner.

i know we all want to win but I look it form a Romo perspective i dont have a lot of confidence that our current running backs can take pressure off of Romo as much as Zeke will im thinking about Romo because Zeke can win us games you know those 40 yd runs McFadden was breakin off yea i think Zeke can actually score on those runs versus getting caught a lot and us having to settle for a field ijs i've seen enough of that

and we know when its all on Tony Romo any hit can be the last at this point so what I mean is we will win more games because "of Zeke" than we will because of a "defensive player insert" in this draft....

look at big picture and how it effects the game .. if we are controlling the clock other team cant afford mistakes because they might not see the ball for a while in turn in 4th qtr may not see the ball at all in 4 min drill at end of games

you can win a lot of games your not suppose to based on paper all because you controlled the game

Zeke can literally control a whole game I have talked about this for the longest on this forum that's my view and y im taking this position on Zeke I can see super bowl run with zeke with bosa or ramsey they can help no doubt but Zekes the best for us and the Oline is in its prime let this rb show just how good it is with an elite type rb

you always got a chance with a good run game` 90s all over again build lead in 1st half eat clock 2nd

 

[Shinaoi]

I get all the arguments against it, but deep inside my heart says yes!

I agree with what you're saying about Zeke helping Romo, etc.

My point all along is that other young backs in the draft can help too. And very good to great lineman (O and D) are way harder to find later than RBs. It's not close.
But yeah, I don't really think DMC puts fear in the hearts of defenses. But behind out line, Henry, K Dixon, or Booker all might (and of course, Zeke would).
If we take him, I won't complain. Just don't be shocked if one of those other backs ends up almost as good.

 

[td4mvp2k]

4 is to high for him rather take ramsey get henry in 2nd who will be as good

 

[StarBoyz83]

I'd like to get him but they're going to take bosa 100%.

Have a feeling zeke or treadwell will go to the giants.

How can you be 100% sure? You got a Delorean or something? Zeke is a special talent they can't pass on unless a trade offer is too rich or they feel Ramsey is the better talent
