UDFA Running backs left?

Watch Luepke’s highlights. I don’t think he’s a traditional lead blocking FB. He’s your short yardage/bruiser.

That's why i m not excited about his signing ...

This sucks. Going into the draft I was so pumped about how deep this RB class was. Never expected to come out of the draft with none of them.

Luepke is like a bowling ball..

Tatonka nickname.......souix for Buffalo, Bison.

Its missing something to me.

Upon furtherI'm leaning toward

It's missing proof. Outside of Pollard, we don't know what we've got, and even Pollard is a bit of a question mark coming off injury.

And I'm puzzled about the Malik Davis luv some CZers have expressed.
6 games, 38 carries tor 161 yds.
6 receptions for 63 yards were in two blowouts v. Vikings and Bears + a workman-like walkover the Titans.

That’s exactly why I am excited about this signing.


The cowboys don’t really use a lead blocked except the rare occasion.

The type of FB McCarthy likes is one that can get the ball on handoffs occasionally or short yardage and can catch passes out of the backfield.

That’s Leupke

Malik Davis showed a lot of promise but our stupid OC wouldn’t play him….

He's slow.

Like 4.6 / 40 slow.

The FO Will realize during the season that they didn’t properly address the RB room. Then over compensate the following year.. This is the way…

I did. We did the same thing in 2015 when we signed Darren McFadden to replace DeMarco Murray. Except that year, I don't think we drafted one at all, although my memory could be wrong about that.

 

[StarLord]

I want Zeke!

Why? Serious question

 

[tyke1doe]

I can get pretty fast going down hill but have terrible balance and change of direction.

Hire this man!

 

[offlimits]

They just seem to make huge obvious blunders that ruin seasons.

Really? This was a solid draft that filled two critical holes. My gosh, they finally signed a massive kid that can plug the middle against the opponent running game. We have been screaming for a kid like this for several years now. A TE that has size and can catch and block at the line of scrimmage. I just laugh at you kids that think the NFL is played on your laptop.

Not satisfied - comfortable with Pollard \ Dowdle \ Davis \ Jones II \ Vaughn heading into the OTAs next month?

I think that’s who we will ride with
I don’t think they add another vet not named Zeke and I hope someone signs him quickly
