people forget lets rehash, THEY OFFERED DMURRAY a new contract..NOT MUCH LESS PER YER THEN PHILLY but not enough years or guarantees for Murray and he CHOSE to walk..they didnt run him out of town..t was reasonable offer..https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/...plans-to-leave-country-amid-contract-holdout/
And here we go.....
This story seems really mealy-mouthed, but it's out there. My gut though is that it's true.
Zeke sees the writing on the wall. The Cowboys are about to run his wheels off this season, and he wants to get paid now before they "Demarco Murray" him out of here.
The Cowboys are probably fine with this for now because they barely have him do anything in camp anyway, and frankly, most of us thought he was going to get a game or two suspension.
Unless he agrees to something reasonable - like 4 years for $50 mm with $30 mm guaranteed - I think the Cowboys will stand pat. It's risky to pay big money to guys that are untrustworthy off the field, especially at the running back position.
ADD inflation and zeke a touch better blocker and pass catcher he deserves to get paid more then 12.5 he deserves something in between Bell and Gurley.., if you extend now its not big deal 4 years 55 mil 3years guaranteed, why is 2 extra yrs and pay him while he fully producing.
let him go next time he holds out or is up for renewal.. if he can play the way hes been playing for 4 years hes worth every penny..hes not injury prone and can help this team win NOW..3-4 years and then we can talk cuts and trades..hes in his DANG PRIME and last year adding he catching to his running and blocking has shown hes even worth more then yrs prior given he is utilized like a work horse for all 4 downs .. insane to say hes not worth it..Gurleys Hurt, Bell got 13 something and Zeke is on par with both of them..
