FA Running Backs

[Shannon1]

Sure glad Jerry didn’t sign Saquon or Henry , FA running backs are washed up ! NOT you idiot they are leading every running back category! Another sign we don’t have a GM !

Josh Jacobs is having a pretty good year too.

And the Texans got joe Mixon for a 7th round pick.

In a year we needed a RB, 4 of the best in the league were available this past off season. Instead, we chose to bring Zeke back

The first few weeks I would have disagreed with you...and yelled "it wouldn't matter on this team".

But looks like we might be able to run block after all. It certainly would have mattered.

 

[chicago JK]

It sucks for Dallas always being too late on a trend. The not paying running backs was hot a few years ago. Fitting Dallas finally got there when teams starting spending at RB again. Always behind the curve.

I should note too...not all of them were expensive or pricey for a trade. Funny how we couldn't afford a late pick for Mixon but give away a fourth for a project WR.

Yes another awful move !

Have you been watching our running back, the kid has guts imagine if he had blocking. We don’t need a running back.

 

[Whirlwin]

Yeah, how do you think they would’ve done behind this offensive line LMAO

yeah that was dumb, I wanted Henry. However, the prevailing view last year in the NFL (and probably this board) was that overpaying for an RB was a mistake as any UDFA could come in and run for 1000.

I really feel badly for Zeke, he's Johnny Unitas, Willie Mays falling in the outfield, Gordie Howe at 52. He should have retired last year.

So the reason the Cowboys didn't sign Henry and Saquon is because we thought they were washed up?

The revising history and then there is that very tall tale.

Zeke just needs more carries …to get into a rhythm. Still don’t know why the line blocks different for him than they did for pollard, and now for dowdle.


At least we’re not paying zeke on two contracts.

 

[CowboysRule]

I really thought this year was just going to be a soft-reset. A wasted year. Let Dak play out the contract. Get some young guys some experience so they are better for next year. Eat the dead money from Dak next year, be horrible, then draft a rookie QB and start the journey over. And then we resigned Dak...and now I just have no idea what we are doing.

Well he probably listens to our fans or reads these posts in Cowboyzone. We shouldn't pay RBs because they come a dimensional a dozen.....so I've heard

And this year's crop of FAs is whew boy............... Aaron Jones might be best of the bunch.

 

[RonWashington]

Aaron Jones 800 yards 32 receptions with Minn. After seeing him wreck Dallas over the years I thought he would be a perfect target .

He cost the Vikings 7mill . Affordable .

 

[RonWashington]

I would offer a deal to FA Dowdle and couple him with a draft pick in 2025 who would be under a rookie deal .

We are just hanging around the rim, or so someone thought we would

Stop it. Dowdle is a decent #2 back but he's no star. He's just the best they've got.

 

[irishline]

Josh Jacobs is having a pretty good year too.

So is Aaron Jones.

Was a banner year to resign Zeke.

 

[Whirlwin]

He’d be a star on a different team , put a star on this team and they wouldn’t be any better
