Tony Romo

Like Tony Romo and Dez Bryant, Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray took part in his first preseason game Saturday night at AT&T Stadium.

Murray played the first two series, getting the ball on nine of Dallas’ first 14 plays.

The fourth-year back carried eight times for 34 yards and turned a short screen pass into a 21-yard gain. Murray also failed to secure a Romo handoff on the game’s opening series and the fumble was returned for Baltimore’s first score.

Fantasy Impact: 

Murray said he's ready to carry the ball however many times they give it to him, but that's the big question - will the Cowboys run more this year. With an aging Tony Romo coming off back surgery, one would think that would be the case but we've heard reports that everyone in the Dallas organization loves to throw the ball, so a lot remains to be seen. Murray is a low-end first round pick to high-end second round pick in just about any format.

Tony Romo returns to action

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo went 4-for-5 for 80 yards but a fumbled exchange in the backfield led to Baltimore's first touchdown.

During the game, Romo spoke to CBS11's Steve Dennis about his play, the first live game action he has had since facing the Redskins in 2013 and since back surgery.

"When you play long enough, you're always excited to play when the season starts and that was exciting," Romo said. "As far as just the progressions and the reads and going through my mechanics, that's kind of the same. So it was good to go out here and do what we did."

Fantasy Impact: 

Romo did throw a TD to WR Dez Bryant. Head coach Jason Garrett was quoted as saying he thought Romo looked a lot like his old self. It's a good first step for Romo who ranks 14th on our list of QBs. If he can somehow survive this season, he could be a great QB2 value later in drafts.

Dallas WR Dez Bryant has developed into one of the NFL’s top receivers. Over the last three seasons, he had 34 touchdown catches.

But Bryant wants to be a complete receiver and knows how important it is for him to also excel at blocking. Bryant has no problems with getting physical with his blocking. He said it’s “very important” to him.

“That’s one of my focus points coming into this training camp, getting there, blocking, finding that guy on the backside,” Bryant said. “Playing with [running back] DeMarco [Murray], the ball is supposed to be going left and he’ll end up coming back right. So you got to be aware. I think I’ve took a step forward, not only me, but the rest of the guys have took a step forward by taking a different approach with our blocking.”

Wide receivers coach Derek Dooley has had the Cowboys receivers working on the blocking sleds during training camp. Bryant said he’s done some of that before, “but not as much.”

Last year, WR Dez Bryant became the first Cowboys wide receiver with back-to-back 90-catch seasons. He also earned his first Pro Bowl spot.

Over the past two years he has 25 touchdowns.

In training camp he has been just as good if not better. Bryant can do things athletically that only a few receivers in the NFL can do with his size, speed and athleticism. He can run through and by corners. He can jump over and around them. He gives Romo the ability to throw a bad pass and turn it into a long completion.

He still has to fine-tune his route-running, but he is taking the role of leader in the receivers' room seriously now that he is the most experienced Cowboy.

Fantasy Impact: 

These are all reasons why Dez Bryant is getting drafted as one of the top receivers on draft day. Getting him as a low first rounder seems to be the trend so far this summer.
