Oxnard Position Group Analysis: Running Backs | Shan & RJ

We're counting down the days to our annual trip to Oxnard with a deep dive into every position group the Cowboys will field in camp. Today we look at their running back room, one that has the least invested in it across the entire NFL. Will the Cowboys' cheap approach lead to any dividends on the field this season?

It's like 2015 all over again when the front office signed Darren McFadden

[@dontthinktohard3991]

So they’ll finally have a competent 1000 yard rusher McFadden ran for almost 5 yards a carry that’s almost prime zeke stuff

[@MrMinionMoney]

McFadden was good that year. I was definitely surprised

[@Frank-pc2rs]

McFadden had a solid season with us that year.

[@therealdarrell282]

@@Frank-pc2rsMcFadden was the only reason you watched the Cowboys that season. He exceeded his contract that Jerry gave him.

[@patrickburk5668]

You said that as if McFadden wasn’t the most productive player on the offense that year

[@nubby2790]

What position group is better: 2018 WR group or 2024 RB group? Both committee strategy.

[@NobeBryant]

So we spent 8.9 mil on backup RB'S . When we could've paid Henry or Barkley 8 mil to start and let Duece Vaughn and an undrafted guy back him up smh

[@JayvsEverybody]

Not our money 😂

[@NobeBryant]

@@JayvsEverybody You know what I mean cuz

@NobeBryant do you realize how damning it would look if they signed Henry? Imagine them winning games because Henry has rushing TDs that literally would be the difference in them winning? That would hurt the narrative that Dak is a MVP quarterback. They can’t have a RB being better at being a RB than Dak is at being a quarterback. That would be a disaster!

[@NobeBryant]

I hear brother smh

[@patrickburk5668]

Derrick Henry is 30+ years old

[@tjtiger2183]

I understand trading for a running back seems the more likely to happen, but I have a hard time thinking they would do a trade when they have shown not to invest in this team this year. They aren’t trying to win this year GMAB, no trade you’ll see.

[@meltonprelow2651]

If we had a great offensive mind we could get away with it but we have McCarthy

[@markfrederick4919]

When was Witten done/washed??? I have the feeling yall wish him and Sean Lee where still in the team. 😂

[@kevinvalencia5120]

I think they cowboys see next years RB class and see there probably 2 or 3 first round RB.

[@BRANDGANGSUPERSTARS]

You have Jalen milroe
Jaxson dart and Quinn ewers one of them gone fall to us let dak walk

[@timmypratt6843]

Peates stats suck in terms of total tards, ypc and receiving stats
