What does recent news of Elliot do for McFadden?
Does Elliot drop in drafts and does McFadden rise?
Maybe Alfred Morris?
Sure nothing will happen with Elliot with story that came out but commissioner is sneaky

McFadden didn't do shite with his opportunity last year. As far as I'm concerned, Morris is the number 2 man.

Ezekiel Elliot will be starting Week 1. I don't see how a suspension can come from conflicting reports by witnesses and his girlfriend's text messages.

I think he is one of the safest picks this year

I forgot who said it, but Zeke's ceiling is already built into his ADP. I think that's poignant.

He's going on avg as the 5th RB off the board in redrafts. That's risky for a guy that hasn't played an NFL down.

I'm not saying he won't be successful - in fact, I think he will be. But with the draft stock you have to invest to get him, even a successful season by rookie standards won't be enough to justify the ADP.

for a second I forgot that this is a fantasy board.

in real life, Dallas is just a good RB away from contending for the Division and a playoff run.
I was about to post that the only place your comment makes sense is fantasy football.
IRL, the Dallas F'ing Cowboys will win the east because they have a good RB THIS YEAR.

Dallas needs Romo and Dez to stay healthy. The defense is very suspect. McFadden actually did okay last year, 1400+ yards from scrimmage, 4.6ypc, 40 recs at 8.2ypc.

Zeke has the potential to top that and add some TD production, even matching DMacs #'s from last year would be good for Zeke. And that's 12ppg PPR.

Dallas wasn't a RB away... they are a defense away.

With the defensive line out for 4ish games and Sean Lee's concussion-a-game pattern, yeah, I think Dallas is a good defense away from even getting into the playoffs.

I'm so torn on Elliott. On one hand, I'd love to have him but I am not drafting him in the 1st round like I keep seeing. Now if I can land Alfred Morris at the end of the draft, I'd do that.
