I don't think Dallas needs multiple high quality backs, that is a big overstatement. You could have lesser backs and succeed with the OL. If Randle is as bad as he sometimes is portrayed on the board, then that is a great example that the OL is the big driver in the run game. He put up good numbers behind them.The "oversupply" of RBs is kind of exaggerated. Yeah the 2008 draft had some great 2nd rounders, a fine 3rd rounder, and notable 1st round busts, but that kind of depth is rare as shit.
A fully healthy DeMarco Murray couldn't repeat what he did for Dallas last year. It's unsustainable. You need multiple high quality players to replace that kind of performance, and that performance was critical to Dallas going 12-4.
Dallas needs multiple high-quality backs... and they have none.
They have most of the pieces of a defense that got them to 12-4, but they have no running backs. At all.
Dallas' window with Romo is in the process of slamming shut.
In one year with the 27th pick in each round, where are you going to find the biggest impact to get Dallas back into the playoffs and over the hump?
As far as impact players picking 27th...yeah, you most definitely can. If you look around the 27th pick in each round this last draft you can see there were plenty of impact players taken. We just have to be smart.
