PFT: Ezekiel Elliott has privately said that he’s planning a training-camp*holdout

[Cowboysrock55]

We are caving. Like we did with Lawrence.

At least we got a friendly deal with Jaylon Smith.

Probably although we will have to see the final numbers. If it's less than Gurley it wouldn't necessarily be caving. The 45 mil guaranteed he got would be what I'm worried about.

Supposedly there is a charity event Elliott is booked for and that is why he is flying back from Cabo.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

False alarm I guess.

Depends on the details... IMO, Zeke deserves to be #1.

To be honest, at this point, Zeke is better than both Gurley and Bell. Kinda makes his case simpler.

Zeke retweeted:

Yeah, just kind of establishes the fact he wants to get paid off the scale that Goof Son has set up.

Zeke retweeted:

That doesn't usually happen with 2 years left on your contract either. But I guess Gurley did.

OK, so how do I post

You don't.

Only Saquon is better than Zeke at this point, and both are absolute beasts.

A guy like Pollard will take yards and production from Zeke, but IMO that’s only going to make Zeke more effective.

Running game is going to be sick this year.

I really don’t want him back with the team at all. He’s made himself very clear. At least Dak is professional enough to show up for work while he’s trying to get a deal done.

Trade him. You don’t need a top back to win a title.

You do if you have the QB that we have.

If the premise of the offense is on balance, controlling the clock and then cramming the ball down teams throats when we have a lead, having a great back is definitely an asset. He's arguably the best player on the team and makes the entire team better when he is on the field. And he is still only 24.
