It’s an obvious fit, but if enough people continue to talk about it — maybe it will happen. The Dallas Cowboys have a need at the running back position.
Todd Gurley simply needs one team to believe in his surgically repaired knee. ESPN NFL Draft guru — Mel Kiper believes the former Georgia All American would be a great fit in Dallas.
“Dallas is going to have one of the best run-blocking lines in the NFL next season, if not the best,” Kiper wrote. “The Cowboys don’t need a dancer, they need a player who will get downhill fast and turn a crease into a big run because he’s so hard to get to the ground when he hits the second level. Gurley can do that. Dallas added Darren McFadden, but they won’t be done at this position.”
The Cowboys badly need help on the defensive side of the ball, and a lot of mock drafts have them selecting a defender. Dallas has shown some restraint in reason years with personnel decisions, but Todd Gurley would be the best available player at pick 27 and the smartest.
