GM Zeke was very adamant in expressing his frustration with the run defense despite having a stellar pass defense. Richardson will go a long way in shoring this up. This was a weakness that looks to turn into a definitive strength in the future. With three DE's drafted high in the last 2 drafts, we should hope.
Round 2 - RB Eddie Lacy - Dallas' offensive struggles last season was no secret. The lack of offensive skill players ultimately resulted in an 8-8 season. Eddie Lacy provides a huge boost to a much maligned running game as they will look to him as their main man between the tackles.
Round 3 - RB Montee Ball - How can you pass a talent like Montee available this late? Certainly not when you have little depth at running back. Ball will receive plenty of work behind Lacy in this offense, be sure of that.
Round 4 - ILB Nico Johnson - Nico Johnson provides some depth to a very strong Linebacker core. He has the physical abilities to be a very solid player given time.
Round 5 - WR Stedman Bailey - Bailey set all sorts of records for the Mountaineers. He joins a team lacking any Star Wide Receivers, so will be given plenty of opportunity.
Round 6 - TE Levine Toilolo - Again, a team needing players all across the offense. Toilolo comes from good bloodlines in that he is the nephew of man-mountain and bull-riding legend Dan Saleaumua. If he has half the god-spirit of Dan, he will be a great pickup in Round 6.
Round 7 - C Eric Kush - Watch the dude's film. He's gonna be a player. Excited to get a potential future starter in the 7th.
The offense has a long way to go, but this draft went a long way to strengthen it.

Who'd you have at RB last season? You should be stocked up now.
