- Jerry Jones - "To totally count on that would give you visions of 8-8, because the last two years, we've had games that we didn't have Murray, and we didn't run the ball as well," Jones said, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Sunday. "We didn't have as good an offense within it. So if we have somebody that could possibly step up there and give you the respite that you need when you don't have Murray, that's a big deal for us."

Agreeing with Jerrah? This Can't Be Happening!
What's weird is that I am agreeing with what Jerry is saying. Could it
be it is because he is repeating what Jason Garret is telling him????
Either way I certainly agree with his comment below and the drafting of
John Randle. I think Randle will be better than where he was drafted.
The Big 12 gets no respect anymore in college football which is
ridiculous. If you are the leading rusher in the Big 12, that's a big
deal. And he didn't have injury problems like DeMarco throughout his
pro AND College careers.
Cowboys Draft 2013 Review
Good analysis by ESPN NFC East Blog
http://espn.go.com/blog/nfceast/post/_/id/50889/in-defense-of-offense-the-cowboys-draft
This is that guy that does the NFC East blog after Matt Mosely quit. He hates the cowboys, because he's from NY, but even he likes the Cowboys' draft. I do too. It seemed like there was a plan in place and they stuck to it, instead of willy nilly picking random guys. I Like the blogger's point that the Cowboys put up big yardage numbers but then stalled in the redzone. And I know from watching the games it was because with all his greatness, Witten disappears in the red zone; we couldn't run the ball; Miles Austin is always hurt.
So that left only Dez Bryant, so teams always double teamed him and Romo would try to force it into him. But now they have another TE who is a good big body (6'7"), they have Terrance Williams to take heat off Dez, and they added a center with a nasty streak. So when you are down on the goal line, and you always run up the middle on goal line situations, they have someone better to give a push in the middle for the RBs. And they added a big strong RB (instead of a "change of pace" back) since DeMarco is always hurt. John Randle can pound it up the middle on the goal line instead of Felix falling down two yards behind the line of scrimmage when the first defender looks at him. It looks to me they know this is a scoring league, and they added a bunch of dudes to try and score more points when in the redzone.
