The collection of running backs in training camp right now suggests the Cowboys are hoping for a sort of “Devastator effect,” like you would see from Transformers cartoons of the 1980s. Let’s review; they brought back a guy they were more than willing to let walk away a couple of years ago in Elliott, who averaged only 3.5 yards per attempt last year in New England as he continued to decline. Dowdle is going into his fifth season in the NFL and has only 96 carries in his entire career.

The last time the Cowboys failed to have a running back break the 700-yard threshold was 2012 when DeMarco Murray led the way with 663 yards. That team finished a mediocre 8–8.
