Sorry, but if DMac is really a franchise back; an Emmitt Smith, or Walter Payton, or Barry Sanders, or Adrian Peterson, or Eric Dickerson, or LT, etc. --- you spend the picks while you have them, and you keep the power back in Barber as well, IMO.
Some of you might not remember Dorsett and Newhouse. Newhouse was a powerful horse in the backfield, where Dorsett was a scat back. You can drive defenses crazy when you can go to either, throw to a all-pro TE, and throw to a WR that is in the top 5.
Some 2nd round back that could replace Barber for a few plays a game -- fine. A franchise back that could run with Barber --- new aspect for defensive coordinators to have to plan for -- much better.
Roger S -- Romo
Tony D -- DMac
Newhouse -- Barber
Cosbie/PPearson/JSmith -- Witten
D Pearson/THill -- TO/ ???
These guys were in the playoffs deep every year, and won a SB or two in the process.
Just Keeping the Dream alive.
This team needs franchise players to push a good players back, not backups that need to work hard to get up to second string.
Jerry hires talent evaluators, and I don't know how they evaluate DMac -- but IF they evaluate him as a franchise back, Dallas needs to go get him, IMO.
