Vision and Burst, take him in the 2nd. Lets see a DT in the 1st.
Is this sarcastic?

If you talking 4th rounder ok, but this guy has no outstanding traits. Very average vision. But yr right about the Murray comparison. He'll take what line gives him, has some power and can pass block. Murray was slow through the line too and ran upright but at least offered straight line speed. Yeldin runs 4.6 and looks it.
One out of how many overhyped RBs?
I like Duke. You can't argue with RBs coming out of Miami. He's got quickness, speed and sneaky strong. He also holds the yardage record is Miami. I see a young Charles but more polished coming out of college.
I love that he squeezes through small holes then explodes out the other side.
Given such a strong class of RBs. I'm very much in favor of picking one early and another late. Draft is a numbers game. More picks equals more opportunities for a hit.
He ran a 4.52 at his pro-day.
Yeah, I kind of like that idea too. Coming away with Duke and Langford, for example, would be awesome. Problem is numbers add up. Williams, Randle, McFadden...getting a little excessive with two more picks
I'm not convinced that Duke or Langord is better then anything we already have.
Generally everyone adds a second/half a second for prodays
so that's on par
4.52s
add a half second you get 5.02s
add a second you get 5.52s
If I have Ingram or Lacey on my team Im looking for an upgrade. Personally I think McFadden is an upgrade to both those guys.

I think Yeldon is the best one-cut back in the draft. He, more than any of the others, has the ability to plant and go without losing speed. It's honestly unreal how good he is off one cut runs. Reminds me more of Arian Foster than Demarco Murray.
That said, his injury history makes me weary of drafting him.

IMO But if we are going rb by committee then he should have no problems handling 15-20 touches per game.
Again just my opinion.
His 2013 game footage was really good. The question on him are why did he have a down year in 2014 and is he injury prone in terms of nagging type injuries (hamstring, groin, etc.). Also Alabama RBs have tended to be overrated.
Gurley is a every down back so is Gordon and Yeldon. I think you need a 215 plus pounder to Beast Mode for Dallas. We need an every down finisher with vision, already have the speed.
