Finding Roles for the Cowboys Defensive Rookies

The Dallas Cowboys spent 5 of their 7 draft picks in the 2016 NFL Draft on improving Rod Marinelli’s defense. After grabbing Ezekiel Elliott at fourth overall, this defensive trend certainly makes sense, as the team will try to emulate the 12-4 season of 2 years ago where the defense often found themselves on the field in favorable situations. For a defense that showed some really good signs in the bleak 2015 season, this unit should be excited at the new additions joining the mix. The key will be finding roles for these rookies alongside the veterans. Let’s attempt to do that for all 5 players:

2016 To Be A True Test for Scott Linehan

The 2016 Dallas Cowboys are on a mission to re-create their winning ways of 2014. Led by their offensive line that season, DeMarco Murray led the league with 1,845 rushing yards. Murray’s dominance made things easy for Offensive Coordinator Scott Linehan, as he called his number to carry the football about 24 times a game on average (24.5). When Murray wasn’t churning out yards on the ground, a healthy Tony Romo and Dez Bryant feasted on defenses through the air as a result of Murray’s production.

What Ezekiel Elliott Means to Dez Bryant, Cowboys Passing Game

The year was 2014. The Dallas Cowboys offensive line was absolutely dominating on the field every Sunday, as DeMarco Murray was the benefactor of their stellar blocking. Murray shaped the Cowboys’ identity, pounding out yards on the ground that kept the offensive moving down the field while keeping the Dallas defense on the sideline. Also on the same offense, WR Dez Bryant was having a breakout year – in his contract year – thanks to opposing defenses becoming so preoccupied with Murray. Romo and Bryant added another lethal option to a Cowboys offense that led them to a 12 win regular season.

Ezekiel Elliott Dominates Preliminary Madden Rookie Ratings

Ezekiel Elliott is the shiny new toy for the Dallas Cowboys,  and their prized possession following a 4-12 season that led to Elliott’s selection with the fourth overall pick. You can read all about our excitement for Elliott right here (seriously, follow that link to be thrown into a world where Ezekiel Elliott dominates with the Cowboys and everything is right). However, this article is here to talk about a certain virtual version of Zeke Elliott. EA Sports has begun ranking this rookie draft class through Madden NFL’s Ultimate Team. Without even factoring in the run blocking grades (or any other grades) for the Cowboys offensive line, it already appears that Elliott will do more than make Giants, Eagles, and Redskins fans throw a remote on Sundays.

Former Cowboys RB Tashard Choice Joins Coaching Staff

The Dallas Cowboys have added former running back Tashard Choice to their coaching staff. Choice, who was with the team from 2008-2011, will work under current running backs coach Gary Brown as the assistant. While Choice did not have a ton of success in Dallas following his selection in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL draft, he picked a good time to rejoin the team in his new capacity. The Cowboys current running back depth chart is as good as it gets from around the league, with Ezekiel Elliott now joining the likes of Darren McFadden and Alfred Morris. Zeke Elliott is expected to do great things in Dallas as soon as he steps onto the field.
