Someone that has hands and can make small/intermediate catches would be also nice, I liked what I saw out of Dalvin Cook but don't want to spend a 1st rounder on a RB.

I get what you are saying about RB in the first, but look at where the draft has talent.  OT?  Nope.  CB?  Not a stellar class.  DE?  Yes, but after the top 3, a drop off.  Don't need a QB.  WR?  Talented, but I like what we have in Core as our X receiver.  So, many of the position groups that are historically drafted at the top of round 1 aren't either talent rich or remote needs.  

Dallas took Zeke at #4 and never looked back.  Cook may not have Zeke's power, but he has speed and hands.  If we can't get one of the big 3 DEs, I am really warming up to the idea of a stud RB that fits this offense so well.
