Sounds good to me.
I just think Henry or Dixon or Perkins could have done that.
And you wouldn't have had to use #4 to do it.
Perkins & Dixon wouldn't start on our team. Im thinking Elliott is a Probowler in 2 years.
There is some probable truth to that. The fact that Elliot is a stud blocker makes him a day 1 starter. Most rookies split time until they understand the blocking component, so most likely these guys would have been our best running threat, but McFadden would still be the starter.
And I agree with Orlando... it's not fair to put too high expectations on rookies, even when drafted #4. But with the line we have if Zeke isn't in the pro bowl in a short few years he will be considered a very big disappointment. But I don't think we'll have to worry... everybody knows who he is (high draft pick and plays for Dallas), so all he really has to do is break 1,000 yards and he'll make it this year. Shouldn't be hard for Zeke if healthy.
