This bears repeating: The Dallas Cowboys badly need a running back.

Tony Dorsett, Emmitt Smith, DeMarco Murray, Ezekiell Elliott, Tony Pollard, even Marion Barber - all of these were Pro Bowlers and strong performers during their time in Arlington.

But after Pollard's departure for the Tennessee Titans, they have quite a disastrous RB corps. Rico Dowdle? Malik Davis? Deuce Vaughn? Snoop Conner? None of them frankly is on their predecessor's level.

Hence, Dalvin Cook. The four-time Pro Bowler is coming off a lackluster stint with the New York Jets, who released him before the season even ended. He then moved on to the Baltimore Ravens and their underwhelming playoff run.

Still, he is an obvious upgrade over all those names. The Cowboys need him now.
