The Dallas Cowboys have found their new RB3 — and it’s Emari Demercado. After moving on from Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah and Israel Abanikanda, Dallas went outside the organization and claimed Demercado off waivers from Kansas City. On this episode of Locked On Cowboys Hit, host James Duncan breaks down why the Cowboys chose Demercado, what his NFL experience brings to the running back room, and whether Dallas actually got better at RB3. Demercado brings three years of NFL experience and 40 career games to Dallas, along with 819 career rushing yards and a 6.5 yards-per-carry average. Even more importantly, Demercado previously worked with Cowboys offensive coordinator Klayton Adams in Arizona, giving him familiarity with the offensive system. James breaks down why Dallas may have valued experience and immediate reliability over the potential of Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah, and what this move tells us about how the Cowboys view the running back room behind Javonte Williams and Malik Davis. With Javonte Williams expected to lead the group, Malik Davis emerging as RB2, Hunter Luepke providing fullback and special-teams versatility, and Demercado now entering the mix, is Dallas actually better at running back? And does this move mean the Cowboys weren't completely satisfied with their previous RB3 options? Cowboys Nation — would you rather have Jaydon Blue or Emari Demercado as RB3?
