Cowboys Still Searching For Their Lead Running Back
2 mins agoThe Dallas Cowboys added running backs Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders in free agency this offseason, but neither can be counted on as RB1 material, and The Athletic's Saad Yousuf writes that the Cowboys are still searching for their lead back. It's somewhat by design, as this year's draft class is friendly and deep and is set up nicely for teams like the Cowboys that are looking for a quality young player at RB. Boise State's Ashton Jeanty is the consensus top back in this year's class, but there's no guarantee he'll still be on the board when Dallas picks at No. 12 overall later this month. Yousuf writes that even if Jeanty is available when they are on the clock, it doesn't sound like the Cowboys are drooling over the chance to take him. Dallas could instead go with other highly graded players at a position of need, and there's also a chance that they'd be looking to trade back if the right offer presents itself.
