Too many other needs. Like him 15-20, not where the Cowboys will draft.
Just a thought. We need talent, would a trade back and pick up extra picks to get Elliot a more better option? Or stay put and just grab best available talent
I would have no problem taking him no matter where we pick.
You wouldn't have a problem taking him if we're picking top 5? Dude.. He's good but come on..
Gotta be a guy there teams will want to trade up that high for. Bosa amd Tunsil will likely be gone, you take Goff if he is there no matter what IMO, and Ramsey, Stanley and Treadwell probably arent worth trading up from top 15 to top 5.
I could be wrong, but a worthwhile trade down might be tough unless you arent drafting Goff. And if Goff is there Im not awnsering the phone
ThisIf you look at last years class he's a tier below Gurley. With that said, he is easily at least a tier above Gordon and Yeldon. Probably two tiers. Gordon was over rated and over drafted. I would not feel comfortable with taking Elliott top 5. He is probably going to go somewhere in the 15-20 range.
I don't see a scenario where I want to pass on any of Bosa, Ramsey, Hargreaves, Goff or Lynch in a trade down scenario without being absolutely blown away either.
...Zeke Elliot is a game changer.
We gonna suck next year too.. Build trenches and draft Chubb or Fournette next year.
I agree, bell cow. IMO we either take Elliot or a QB with our first pick if it's as high as we think it will be. There really aren't any other good options. Sure Ramsey would be great but we HAVE to have a franchise RB and get back to how we played last year or a QB, possibly AND a QB, for the future. If we have a top 8 pick, RB or QB are the only choices IMO.

Man, if we end up with a top 5 pick I would be happy with any one of those 5 ! That would be a win win for Dallas. If both of the QBs are gone, that would leave a great talent at either CB or DE - which are top positions of need (If they decide not to bring back Hardy). And we would not have to force a QB if those 2 are gone. Could look at trading down if they could fleece some team for picks, but I would be content to take any one of those 3 and then look to a second tier QB in the high second round.
After today, where do we stand draft position wise. 2nd or 3rd ? Behind Tennessee ?
