Who would you rather have, Zeke or Jamal Adams?

[CowboyRoy]

If you could only have one or the other, which would you pick for the team?

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Not Adams, a SS who doesn't get ints.

 

[big dog cowboy]

That's a tough one!

I'll go with....Zeke. The Cowboys need a ball hawking FS and that isn't Adams.

Zeke adds a bunch more to this teams success than the safety. If he is used right and not wasted between the tackles like with the last regime he'll be beastly.

You're right in that safeties aren't one of the bigger keys to success, only issue is that RB is the least valuable position and worth half a safety.

Zeke

I would rather have Adams, I don't think much of Zeke. I feel like Zeke has lost his edge 100%. He has gotten paid, he does the bare minimum and uses the regular season to get into shape.

Well Emmitt was valuable back in the day.

 

[cowboyec]

ZEKE.
THE BEAST

 

[starfan1]

Zeke isn’t my favorite for sure but given the choice here zeke by a mile

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Sure. But you know what they say about using 25 year old references as your basis? Don't.

 

[The Dallas1575]

Zeke

I know. History. Who needs it.

 

[conner01]

Me personally
Neither
But that ship has sailed
Zeke is here and Adams is not coming
I like Zeke but if I was gonna extend Zeke I would have done it sooner and had an earlier out
Adams isn’t worth the picks and money he would cost

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

I know. History. Who needs it.

Maybe it's going over your head? Idk.

Using a reference from a non-salary CAP era, with a player much better than the subject player, in an era when rules didn't heavily favor passing just seems really silly.

History is good, you not using when/how to use it is bad.

Jamal is arguably the top safety in the NFL. He would be the leader of our defense for the next 5 years minimum.

I take Jamal 10 out of 10 times. Zeke can be replaced by Pollard and another good RB that can be addressed with a 2nd or 3rd round pick.

Zeke isn't Emmitt. Not by a long shot.

 

[Rayman70]

HOW BOUT BOTH? lol

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Dumb as a door knob way of judging a strong safety.

He ran for 1,300 yards and 12 TDS last year.
