If Felix Jones is gone, how do you feel about a second, much bigger back, in the later rounds? Someone like Alfred Morris?

Rainer Sabin: I don't think getting a bigger back is necessarily the answer. Marion Barber didn't exactly excel in Jason Garrett's offense. And Murray, when healthy, is physical. The Cowboys just need to commit more to the running game with the personnel that they have.


Are the Cowboys high on any of the defensive linemen that they recently signed to their practice squad?

Rainer Sabin: They're practice squad guys. I think expectations should be tempered with any player assigned to the practice squad.


Do you see them trading away Felix Jones before or during the draft?

Rainer Sabin: No, because Jones is a free agent.
