Summary

Will Tony Pollard finally become a true 1b to Ezekiel Elliott's 1a, or will his role as a high-value complementary piece be the ceiling? Either way, Pollard is an integral part of the reigning No. 1-ranked offense, and his dynamism helps offset Elliott's declining per-play effectiveness. Pollard topped 1,000 yards from scrimmage last year thanks to career-best touches (169), yards per rush (5.5), and yards per catch (8.6). We've yet to see how the coaches would use Pollard in Elliott's absence, but if both are healthy, the fourth-year tailback should be in line for a larger piece of the pie.
