UCLA RB Paul Perkins had a workout and coming in for visit

[vicjagger]

He's 5'10 210

Sounds big enough to me.

 

[Sarge]

Is he smaller than Darren Sproles?

No one is smaller than Darren Sproles.

No one is smaller than Darren Sproles.

Yep. And despite his stature, he's proven to be effective playing a big man's game. That's kinda, sorta, why I used him as an example.

Effective as a role player.

I like him, but is there room for him and Dunbar on same active roster? Seem like similar skill sets

if hes better than Dunbar so be it I like Dunbar but if he can only play 5 games a year he's just taking up a roster spot and I like Dunbar a lot but

I haven't seen Dunbar make people miss in open field like this guy so I'd take a chance

 

[CATCH17]

4th and 5th round is going to be a sweet spot for some quality backs in this draft imo.

He's a situational player though. Sproles is not a starting TB. If you take Perkins, I would hope it's because they think he can be a starting TB.

I am sorry if I am asking a dumb question, but is there a resource that tracks who has been worked out and who has visited the Cowboys?

My favorite RB pick. Any place in Rd 4 and this won't feel like we missed out on Zeke. Like this pick.

I disagree. His blocking is suspect. He should be a pick ONLY if we don't pick a franchise quarterback. If he's in the game, he aint going to protect Romo.

Ezekiel Elliott, on the other hand, is a tremendous blocker and is a three-down back.

I know the running back position has been downgraded, but trust these guys protecting Romo at his peril.

His blocking isn't suspect. Where are you getting that from? Clearly not his tape. I'm assuming you were talking about Perkins.

Yes, I was talking about Perkins. Definitely not EE.
