Since 2003, the Cowboys have added a running back from the draft consistently, every 2-3 years. The Cowboys will continue that trend in 2015 when they draft a running back.
Here’s a brief refresher of running backs the Cowboys have drafted since 2003:
2004: Julius Jones, Round 2 (#43)
2005: Marion Barber III, Round 4 (#109)
2008: Felix Jones, Round 1 (#22)
2008: Tashard Choice, Round 4 (#123)
2011: DeMarco Murray, Round 3 (#71)
2013: Joseph Randle, Round 5 (#151)
The consensus for 2015 says the running back class is deep, and while this is true, it is not that deep in regards to the Cowboys type of back they covet for starter potential.
