The notion that Keenum or Fitzpatrick could win a SB with the Cowboys roster is laughable.

Keenum? I think I'd cry if he was our starter. Fitzpatrick on the other hand is an interesting specimen. Given the time in the pocket and players like Evans and Jackson to throw to, he's Fitzmagic. Put a little pressure on him or cover his main targets and his decision making is horrible. He turns into Fitztragic.

Flacco is the only one who has done it and if you go back and look at what he did during that SB run he was not a bus driver. The myth is the Ravens defense won that SB. That was true in 2000, but not in Flacco's win. The Ravens scored 124 points in their four 2012 playoff wins - that's 31 ppg. Flacco fired 11 TD passes and 0 INTs while averaging 285 ypg.

And with Dak .....well it's not Laughable sure is bud?

That is almost never a money decision. Any team would find a way to keep all three.
The only decision has always been the star player or more quality at other positions and depth. It is seldom star or star.

That said, I keep Dak and Cooper and replace Zeke.

Pay Amari.

Pay Dak $30 million for three years with a 3rd-year option.

Wait on Zeke and hire an investigator to find out how he's living off hours.

Mates, hardy workaday oafs and contractors, today I ask, for general discussion, about priorities.

Yes.

Amari seeks riches.
Dak seeks riches.
Zeke seeks riches.

If you of thee Cowboys Fan Realm have 2 purses, to which of the 3 superstars would you throw? Which gladiators of the unfrozen tundra would you pick?

I would like to know how you rate these players in terms of riches.

2 are in.

I agree--one is a great player but continues to be a fool
1 is out.

Amari, Dak or Zeke?

Mine is Amari, Dak, Zeke, in that order.

Be ruthless, be practical, be fair.

First to sign or first to make odd man out?
First to sign. What good is it keeping Amari Cooper if we don't have a quarterback that already knows the system. Elliot I never would have drafted him in the first place I would have taken Ramsey. But that's not the system this franchise is running. They want to play Smash Mouth they don't want to overexpose the young defense. Keep them on the field too long. If only we have real input.

I could live with a 3-year contract for Dak. But starting ASAP.
I want to begin counting down the days when we draft a long-ball thrower who rarely fumbles and does not want top money.

It’s the hard truth. I love Zeke’s talent, but RBs are always a fleeting commodity. They can be great for 3-5 years, then fall off a cliff. I understand why so many fans scream that Zeke must stay. But football wisdom says otherwise. (Cue the Zeke attack dogs, lol)
I agree about the RB position.
Zeke is awesome, but can we really bank on him still playing great at 30?
60 million dollar risk?
Considering how Murray (third round pick) won the rushing title with this line, and the Steelers were able to have success with James Conner (also third round pick) last year, I would rather take that route and draft a good, young & cheap RB.
