What could we get for Zeke?

There may be a few teams that would, like phil , all they need is a good run game to make another run.
That is what hurt them last year.
Dont have a clue what they would give for feed me, but I figure at least a 2nd.

The Colts would be perfect for that scenario if Mack didnt pan out.

The Chiefs could go roughshod with Zeke instead of D Williams.

The Dolphins could really use Zeke to help their young QB.

The Bills may need a legit RB as well.

Would the Pats give us Sony and a pick? Brady and Zeke would be a sight to see.

GB, maybe Aaron Jones and a pick, to make a last run with Rodgers..doubtful

Hawks like Carson but Zeke and RS is nice.

Texans are also interesting,but they just got Duke.

The Skins and Snyder are crazy enough to pull the trigger and give us AP back.

Tampa has no one at RB and lots of money. They also have trouble selling out so Zeke could $$$

Not sure I have anymore remote possibilities. Fact is there are only a couple of these that may seriously consider sending us an offer. I highly doubt we move him this year.

No question what so ever that would could get a first and a 3rd minimum.
No chance, 2nd at best. He wants t be paid the highest RB, has off the field issues, already has 3 years under his belt, a deep RB class next year and how many teams even draft RB’s in the first? Not many for a good reason.

Maybe, maybe if there was a win now team, all they needed was a top RB, had the cap space to sign him and didn’t mind dealing with his shenanigans then I suppose it could happen but I bet they would want a third or something in return.

Darn good effort there, 100% doable or not. All solid possibilities.

At least a #1 probably a little more. If he was traded the team trading would have him a minimum 2 years because his 5th year option is picked up. I could see a serious contender taking the gamble for 2 seasons if they thought Zeke would put them over the top
They would not have him for two years because he is going to holdout for a new contract...

Its complete nonsense. All there has to be is a few teams that want him. And there are plenty of teams out there with huge cap space that are in desperate need of a top 3 RB. They would be lining up to trade for him and sign him. And lets not forget that leveon Bell did NOT get crazy money. His holdout actually didn't work out for him.

The top RB contract is Gurley at 14.375M per.

Bell got 13.125M per.

It takes more than finding other teams that want him. If he doesn't agree to play at his salary those other teams are not going to want to inherit our headache. And even if there was another team willing to pay him a salary that he could agree to, they still have to compensate the Cowboys for the right to do so. That could be a kings ransom and is not so easy to speculate it could be done.

Only takes one or two. 1st and 3rd and I dont think it would be difficult. Now your probably not getting a top 10 pick for him.

Disneyland, because you're living in a fairytale if you think we're trading him.

You are gonna always find a trade "disparate" partner who think they are one piece short of achieving their goals.

Hope Joneses are working on it

:cool:

Do we have any precedents at RB trades to go off of?

I guess the Cowboys could give the Vikings a call. With their defense, Cousins, and WRs, I think they're just an elite RB away.

Would you say the same if he was on another team?
I think someone would pick him up in a second just based on talent alone. The guy makes a lot of plays and changes the dimension of the offense. I think a 1st and a 2nd the following year. What team would not want a top 3 running back? At least a first. Be just like the Cooper trade.

Do the Vikings need a running back? Cause that's worked out pretty well for us in the past...

At least a #1 and probably more. What do you think the fair market value would be for Zeke?
i'd say at least a dozen useless trade threads - number to grow the longer he holds out.

is any team going to give up a #1 and pay 15mill a year or more for zeke. lets say there was no Zeke and we wanted one and a RB available and we needed one. would you pay a first for example to Bell and 15 Mill? given we would still have to pay cooper, Dak. or would you say, I am going to go the draft route?
