Ezekiel Elliott Says He Wants to Be Drafted by Cowboys, Talks 40-Yard Dash Goal

The glitz and glamour that come with playing for the Dallas Cowboys are enough allure for any draft prospect, but for former Ohio State Buckeyes running back Ezekiel Elliott, landing with America’s Team would also come with the advantage of rushing behind the NFL’s best offensive line.

Elliott, who led the Buckeyes to the national title in 2014 and declared for this year's draft in November, was asked Friday which team he’d like to hear call his name in Chicago in April.

"The Dallas Cowboys [are my pick],” Elliott said on NFL Network, per Chase Goodbread of NFL.
