Rich Eisen: It's interesting, at four there's two names being thrown about publicly; you and Joey Bosa. If I put you on the table to pound the table for Joey Bosa, what would you say for him to be drafted high in this draft?

Ezekiel Elliott: He's a workhorse. It's crazy. I've never seen anyone go out and play as hard as he does. It's kind of painful to see him play and see how much effort he puts up. Sometimes he works so hard it just looks like he's in agony. But I mean, I've never seen anyone bust him going one-on-one. It's rare to see people who can double team him. The only time I've seen him contained is on triple teams. He's a guy that you have to game plan around. He's a guy that you have to know where he's at on the field the whole time. That's just a guy who you honestly don't want to see on an opposing defense.
 
Painful? Does he mean the guy has no fluidity?

I saw an interview wth Elliott. He seems like a likable guy.

As for Bosa, he's way underrated on the CowboyZone .
He will be outstanding.
 
I'm not really in the Bosa camp but what he said about double teams and triple teams is true. Bosa us a workhorse, I just think Zeke should be the pick. He helps the defense more than any player in this draft this year.
 
That's the response you give about a teammate and friend when asked by teams or the media. Well done Ezekiel Elliott.

If only Robert Nkemdiche (sp?) had learned this before pulling Tunsil under the bus with him at the Combine.
 
He's right about Bosa. The dude is a stud. I've seen plenty of Ohio St. games and when he's in he wrecks things and is the best defender on the field. He got screwed in his final game and got kicked out in the 1st quarter for what they called targeting when he nailed the QB.

If it's not Zeke, give me Bosa and Henry.
 
The only negatives about several of these guys are that they may be partiers and may have used weed. Normally it isn't an issue, but when you have two players facing drug suspensions of one kind or another, it makes teams very paranoid about taking them.

Bosa - suspended for drugs
Elliott - big time partier who Bosa had to get away from him
Tunsil - was partying with Nkemdiche when he fell out of the window
Spence - addiction issues with Molly
Hargreaves - rumors of SEC defensive back having failed drug test at Combine...fingers pointed at him

Then you have the once in a lifetime guy with the questionable knee.

It is a very complicated draft.

It's not all that complicated if Ramsey is there at 4.

Right now, these two guys are the ones I'm most interested in ... and I could live with Dallas taking either. Too bad they don't come as a package deal.
 
I think its Bosa we are most interested in,we obviously like Zeke but i think Bosa is our favorite OSU player.

Truthfully, he got himself ejected from the bowl game intentionally. He speared DeShone Kizer when he went to tackle him. Absolutely led with his head. He didn't even protest when he got tossed.

The reason? After seeing Jaylon Smith tear his knee up the series before, he wanted to get out of the game to avoid injury.
