Former Dallas Cowboys are looking forward to seeing what first-round draft pick Ezekiel Elliott can do in the NFL.

Herschel Walker was the latest to weigh in on the Cowboys' newest running back.

"Elliott is a beast," Walker told KDBC-TV in El Paso.

Elliott will get a chance to show off what he can do this fall behind arguably the best offensive line in the league.

"The Cowboys have a system that gives the running back the ball and give him the opportunity to do something good for him," Walker said. "It's gonna be good for he and them to get that versatility a bit. I think he can do everything and it helps to have each of those other guys do a little bit of each of that."
