When Zekes cap hit is lower he will be cut, calm down and just wait
It doesn’t take away from the fact that we wasted a 4th overall pick on a RB, and in todays game I would say that about any RB. The Giants GM is archaic is about to get fired, and what will fo down as one of his biggest blunders is using the 2nd overall pick on a RB. Granted, we were in a much better situation to pick a RB then they were but it was still dumb as hell. THEN they decide to not only cave to him when he has two years left on his contract but then meet his demands as paying him as the highest RB in the league.
Of course then his supporters like to try and justify what we paid him because he won 2 rushing titles only because he had the most carries both time he did it along with a top 5 O line almost every year. He falls well short in every individual RB category such as yards from scrimmage, broken tackles, etc.
I’m not saying he’s a bad RB but he’s been a large beneficiary of a great O line and does little on his own to creat plays. Sure, every now and then he makes a big play but he’s inconsistent and doesn’t show up in a lot of big games. I would expect more from a guy that pulled a diva move like he did and I’m quite sure he expects more of himself but he’s too busy flying back and forth to Cabo trying to prove a point instead of showing up to pre season with his team and letting his agent do the negotiations.
On top of all that, you make as many excuses for him as you want, but have we had a bigger constant distraction on this team for this long? This is the first year we finally haven’t heard about him ding anything stupid and please don’t give him the victim card or minimize what he’s done.
