Another Ohio State running back is headed to the Dallas Cowboys.
He had to wait until the seventh round, but the Cowboys selected Mike Weber with the No. 218 overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft on Saturday.
Weber will join Ezekiel Elliott, who the Cowboys selected with the No. 4 overall pick in 2016, and continues a long tradition of Buckeye ballcarriers taking their game to the NFL.

Weber wasn't drafted nearly as high as Elliott or Eddie George or some of Ohio State's other more prominent running backs who have gone on to play at the next level, so the expectations won't be the same, but he projects as a solid second or third running back on the Cowboys' depth chart.
