Ezekiel Elliott was the appetizer.

0:06.7

Dalvin Cook, the main course.

0:09.1

Yeah, going to the New York Jets on a one-year deal.

0:12.1

That could be worth more than $8 million.

0:15.1

And how about this Twitter poll?

0:17.1

Let's go right to the people.

0:18.2

I asked them, who are you drafting first,

0:19.9

Dalvin Cook or Breece Hall?

0:22.1

Heath Cummings, what do you think the answer was?

0:24.7

What do you think the people voted?

0:26.5

Well, I'm going to guess that Breast Hall got about 54% of the vote,

0:31.1

and Dalvin Cook, somewhere around 46%.

0:33.7

The way you're looking at smiling, it's like you're reading the poll. But what I'm seeing is that according to my computer, Dalvin Cook is ahead right now.

0:44.1

That was just a guess. I don't have Twitter open right now. Okay. Yeah, 51%, 51.4% for Dalvin Cook, 48.6% for Brees Hall. That's crazy. And that's 873 votes. It's not all that insignificant.

Brees Hall is 100% fully recovered from this ACL injury, that he will be the 1A. a. a. a. a.m.

1:22.0

John Jones in Nathaniel Hackett's system, and Dalvin Cook will fall into that A.J. Dillon

1:27.4

roll as the 1B

1:29.2

in the 10 to 12, 10 to 15 carries per game role. I had Hall at the 6th, 7 turn this morning is what I

1:37.0

said and I still feel pretty good about that. Okay. So he'll keep him there. And what about drafting

1:41.5

Dalvin Cook? Yeah, he moves up into single-digit round

1:46.2

consideration. I'm probably still going to have him in round 10. It was last year, his worst year
