What are your thoughts on this young man? Looked like a young Zeke running the ball, legs didn't stop moving seems tough! Shifty runner, not sure about pass pro, and what else he may not get great at or not.


Wishing him the best, he may get a spot on this roster next season, give your thoughts!

He seemed to have good vision on the inside runs, and shiftiness like you said. I do like that he ran with power even though he doesn't have real great size for that.

Pollard is the lightening and Malik is thunder , fast - powerful, combo.

( No shade , thats bad joke )

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I don't know how many people spell lightning wrong, but based on what I've seen, I'd say it's pretty striking.

Nope.

Just draft Kenny McIntosh RB from Georgia in the 4th. 6'0" 210lbs.

He had a punch but not as much as Elliot. We need under the center runs. Quick whams or pitch or toss plays. Need to be up tempo and hit quick passes. Please don’t come out asking Dak to look for long developing pass plays.

Looked good in preseason.
Nice wiggle, feet and shiftyness to his game.

But not afraid of contact either for a not so large RB. Fast enough but not a burner. More quick than fast.

Again, he looked legit against pre season comp.
Time to see if those same skills show up against starters.

I like him so I hope so.

nah, i think he is built like Emmitt and runs more like Emmitt. .. sidesteps tacklers and hard to get a good straight hit on him. Opposite of Zeke who just bulls into you and not as elusive. But i think Malik has great talent, just needs to stay healthy is the problem. I think it is good for Dallas to find out what they have in him now and if he fits into the future.

I think he won't get many carries and I just hope he doesn't make any dumb rookie mistakes.

There is a good chance he is already better than Pollard at picking up the blitz.

This is the first I’m hearing he’s actually going to play Sunday . That’s great news . He was easily the the most talented toughest runner used in Pre season by Dallas . If he doesn’t chip in with at least 50 yards maybe a goal line TD I would be surprised .

Was high on him making the Squad and here’s a thought break the glass in the emergency clamoring for a WR and activate Brandon Smith as well , easily the best WR in pre season for Dallas .
