No. 4 overall – Ezekiel Elliott to the Dallas Cowboys

What actually happened
This is exactly what happened anyhow. Zeke has been a mainstay of the offense in Dallas.
What Adam Rank Says
“The Cowboys selected Zeke here in real life. And I would say that it was a smart pick. Even though the “running backs don’t matter” crowd still hates it to this day. But Elliott has been good for the Cowboys. The guy did lead the league in rushing twice, rolling up 1,631 yards and 16 total touchdowns as a rookie. It hasn’t been Zeke’s fault. I would still make that call today. Like, do you think the Cowboys were a Jalen Ramsey away from winning a Super Bowl?”
