These are the primary ones I can remember from memory so apologies if I forgot one you like
I’m going with Murray
Out of those guys, Elliott is probably the best overall package.
2.Zeke is clearly the best back the Cowboys have had since Emmitt. He’s had the most yards and TDs. He’s had three seasons of over 1300 rushing yards. Those who are picking DeMarco Murray are wrong. He had only one big season with the Cowboys.

I just realized Elliott only crossed over 100 yards rushing twice last year
Murray.
His commitment to his conditioning was Herschel Walker-esque and made for a very consistent battering ram game in and game out. He'd wear down the 2nd level of a defense so much that by the 4th qtr they didn't want to tackle him head on anymore. As much as Zeke was touted as having great hands, Murray didn't drop balls at all like Zeke did. He could block like a SOB, too.
Wait. What?
No mention of Hambrick?

Even when people are down on Zeke, he's usually playing well. He gets a pass from me for last year, because that line was atrocious at the end of the year, especially playoffs, and he was playing through an injury.
I think they give him the ball too much. But I figure this will be the year Pollard actually does get more carries.
Hard to have a conversation about Randle. He played for like 6 games. I never got to analyze how good he would have been as a run blocker. But for his short period of games, he had some really good runs.
Yeah, ruffian, but tha Cowboys FO is saying Zeke sprouted new legs and looks 5 years younger. MVP! MVP!
