Ezekiel Elliott had 240 yards on 29 touches
Michael Roberts Jersey , the most scrimmage yards he has had in a single game in his three-year career. It ranked as the seventh-most in team history.“I’m beat
up,” Elliott said. “I was already sore in the first quarter. I knew what type of
game it was going to be. I knew how to grind through it. Rod [Smith] did a great
job giving me spells when I needed [him] to.”Elliott had 25 carries for 152
yards and caught four passes for 88 yards and a touchdown. His 29 touches tied
for the sixth-most in his career.“We were using him every way we could use him,
and he was being effective,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said. “We tried to do it
last week and had a couple of plays we?? like to have back, but this week he was
making the plays. That catch over his shoulder when it all counted should be one
we all remember, and I?? glad I got to see it. But I??e never seen him play any
better than he played today.”Elliott
Taylor Decker Jersey , isolated on Jarrad Davis with 1:23 left, made an over-the-shoulder catch of a Dak Prescott pass for 34 yards to the Detroit 25.
It set up the game-winning field goal on the final play.“Zeke?? a great football
player,” coach Jason Garrett said. “We try to get him the ball in a lot of
different ways. We??e tried to do that since he?? been with our team. Typically
it?? by running it. But one of the big parts of the evaluation coming out was
how productive of a receiver we felt he could be. When you give him
opportunities, he typically takes advantage of them. In those particular cases,
we just like the matchup of man-to-man coverages or we like how they??e playing
it based off an action we see them using, and the execution around him was
really good and he can typically take advantage of those plays.” A look at some

Best players remaining for the Lions on Day 2Jeff Blake-USA TODAY SportsThis
year’s draft blew up in all of our faces immediately when the Oakland Raiders
made their first selection and proved that no one really knows anything. Clelin
Ferrell went way higher than anyone expected. Montez Sweat fell all the way to
the 24th overall pick, and a lot of good players are still available heading
into Day 2 of the draft for the Detroit Lions to consider. Let’s take a look at
some of the players still available as the Lions wait for their turn.Wide
Receiver1. D.K. Metcalf2. Deebo Samuel3. Hakeem Butler4. A.J. Brown5. Terry
McLaurinMetcalf falling this far is a bit interesting. It’s not surprising that
he dropped a bit, but no one really expected him to still be here on Day 2.
Still, this is good news for the Lions if they’re looking to add even more
offensive weapons for Stafford. Metcalf is the type of receiver that Stafford
loves and would be a nice fit here.Deebo Samuel, one of my favorite fits for the
Lions, is also out there and would be great value with the 43rd overall pick.
Him and A.J. Brown would be great slot options for the Lions
Graham Glasgow Jersey , and if they’re looking for speed, then maybe McLaurin, Parris Campbell or Andy Isabella could be an option for them as
well.Cornerback1. Amani Oruwariye2. Greedy Williams3. Byron Murphy4. Justin
Layne5. David LongThere are a lot of great options here even outside of the
top-five listed above. Only one corner (Deandre Baker) was drafted on the first
night and it took all the way up until the 30th overall pick to finally get
there. Guys like Oruwariye, Williams, Layne, Long and even Rock Ya-Sin would be
nice fits for Patricia’s heavy man-coverage scheme. Murphy might not be a
perfect fit
Jake Rudock Jersey , but fits what Quinn is looking for in a defensive playmaker.Offensive Line1. Jawaan Taylor2. Dalton Risner3. Greg Little4. Erik
McCoy5. Cody FordSome surprises here as even Tytus Howard from Alabama State
went in the first round over Jawaan Taylor or Dalton Risner. Taylor has always
been a bit of a project but is extremely tenacious and would be a nice addition
for the Lions if he somehow makes it all the way to their second-round pick. The
Lions could luck their way into one of the top O-linemen after skipping over the
position in the first round.Edge rusher1. Anthony Nelson2. Chase Winovich3.
Christian Miller4. Zach Allen5. Oshane XiminesThough the Lions were unfortunate
enough to see the likes of Josh Allen go directly ahead of them, there are still
some talented edge rushers available. Nelson is a down DE candidate with great
athleticism and impressive bend for his size. Winovich is a little smaller, but
is a great technician and tested extremely well at the combine.Zach Allen isn’t
quite the athlete as the aforementioned prospects, but fits well with what
Patricia is looking for and is dominant with his hands and at the point of
attack. I could see at least one or two of these guys available when the Lions
are on the clock in the second round, and they could really hit a home run with
one of these players.Safety1. Chauncey Gardner-Johnson2. Nasir Adderley3. Taylor
Rapp4. Juan Thornhill5. Deionte ThompsonSafety may not be the top need for the
Lions, but there are a ton of talented players left that would make for great
value at the top of the second round or in the third if any of them slip even
further. Gardner-Johnson is a very versatile player that can line up in man
coverage if you’d like him to
Danny Amendola Jersey , or he can play deep and use his instincts to create turnovers and make plays. Adderley has great range as a deep safety, while Rapp
is likely to stay closer to the line of scrimmage.Thornhill is a hot name after
testing elite at the combine, and although Thompson is a victim of others
testing well and jumping him on most big boards, he’s still a very good prospect
that will warrant consideration early in Day 2.Best of the restDT Trysten HillDT
