RBs will definitely become available but we won't look. At least not until it becomes really obvious how bad our RB room is. That probably won't be until during the season.
Sounds familiar

2018, Week One
WRs: Allen Hurns, Deonte Thompson, Terrance Williams, Cole Beasley, Tavon Austin (aka Mr. Dozen Touches per Game, Mr. Web Back)

170 passing yards, 8 points scored vs Carolina

Traded for Amari Cooper weeks later

I think it will be like the year we traded for Cooper. It's going to become painfully obvious we fucked up and then maybe we overpay in a trade for a RB.
Amazing how jones has screwed up this position for so long. Going too far one way, then too far the other in the opposite direction.

Lets Murray go and thought any old RB could get the job done. What was the name of that scrub he thought could lead our backfield the next year? Choice?

So he figures out how dumb he was and then goes way too far the other way by spending the 5th pick in the draft on a RB then way overpaying for the position. Now he has gone in the total opposite direction again thinking any old scrub can run the ball.

You will probably wind up being correct as he over corrects next year and blows a first rounder on a RB.

Sad because had we secured a quality RB the Cowboys would have given themselves a chance to get past the 2nd round this year. Resigning Zeke all but doomed that.

They did everything right in the draft with the Oline.

The over/under for Zeke’s rushing yards Week One will be interesting.

I cant even watch to be honest. I watched those last 3 years as that clown stumbled into the middle of the Oline and fell down. Basically threw a party when he got cut. To see him back on the team and already being declared the starter is a nightmare I dont think I ever would have predicted.

All depends on carries. Just multiply the number of carries by about 3. I will go with 36 yards rushing over/under.

How many 5th round comp pics do we have? Use one on a RB from the 9ers, the Jets or the Dolphins. They have surplus doods, we have surplus 5th’s.

3 fifths plus our own from what I saw. Plus an extra sixth.

Sadly you can make a strong argument that he's currently the best RB on the Cowboys roster.

I'll put the O/U at 47.5.

And I'll take the under on that.

They're not interested because they'd have to pay him about 2 and a half mil for this year, and his 5th year option would have been over 6 million.

Only so much pie.
