lol feminists still up in arms about Winston? At this point Winston may be the GOAT troll. Like Sherman, even if you dislike him, he offends and pisses off so many annoying types of people that you cant help but root for him

On second thought, I think Telvin Coleman is a better fit in Dallas. Coleman is a one-cut speedster with some size. He isn't afraid of contact and hits his top speed quickly. While Coleman lacks some patience and vision, Coleman's power, suddenness and speed is reminiscent of Darren McFadden. With the Cowboys' line opening up holes with regularity, Coleman vision and patience will have time to develop in tune with the rest of his skillset. His speed, cutting and power should translate well.
STRENGTHS
Decisive north-south runner. Outstanding three-step burst into second level. Fearless between the tackles. Has dangerous jump-cut to instantly change gaps and ruin the plans of linebackers. Stays square to the line and is always in ready position to hit turbo. Fluid and flexible lower body with elite one-cut ability and natural change-of-direction talent without gearing down. Power in legs to slice through arm tackles and uses free hand as quality stiff-arm. Violent run finisher. Will duck shoulder and throw heavy forearm into tackler to prove a point. Not a content runner -- keeps feet moving after contact and won't give in. Capable hands out of backfield and willing to square up and engage pass rushers on pass plays. Hits top speed so quickly that safeties and linebackers repeatedly take poor angles, leading to long touchdowns. Half of his 28 career rushing touchdowns were of 43-plus yards, including eight of 64-plus yards.
WEAKNESSES
Treats every carry like a sprint. Must improve run tempo and patience on stretch plays. Has to learn when to keep run play-side and improve patience so he allows back-side cutback lanes to develop. Can improve out of backfield. Wasn't always in position to scan defense on screen passes, resulting in lost yardage. Pad level often a little high into contact.
NFL COMPARISON
Darren McFadden
BOTTOM LINE
His violent running style is a joy to watch, but might have to be tempered to extend his career. He is a "race car in the red" on just about every snap and refuses to give in, which leads to many big runs. Zone, gap, power ... it doesn't really matter because Coleman can fit all schemes. Has the burst and top-end speed to be a game-changing running back for a team looking for a workhorse.

Coleman pretty much put the fear of god into Ohio State, in Columbus, on a broken toe
Between him, Melvin Gordon, David Cobb, Ameer Abdullah, Zeke Elliott the big 10 was loaded w/ sick RBs
jameis' charisma dominating this interview.

Coleman is a little stiff in the hips, like McFadden, but the Cowboys' dominant offensive line should offset some of what Coleman lacks in that area. Coleman should hit the hole, cut once and run.
