Signed by Cowboys Cowboys agree to extension with Zeke

[Alexander]

90 million is way too much.

It is just cap porn. These contracts are rarely what they seem.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I'll tell you how many. Enough to screw a fantasy football owner that has both Zeke and Pollard, that's how many!

Pollard may still be a viable flex in deeper 12 team ppr leagues

Another Dak-debacle .........one of many so far.....

Another desperate & ignorant comment.........one of many so far.......

 

[Alexander]

Even though there's still a lot of bickering about this which there would have been regardless of the amount, I, for one am glad it's finally over and done with and we can now focus on the season opener this Sunday..

Go cowboys

Amen. On to the Giants.

Says who....if he still is running at a top 5 level he will be here until the end.

Not at that price with the work load they put on him

 

[mcmvp]

The fact is both probably got some of what they wanted and that's the way it should be. People make too much over who won and who lost. In the end the Cowboys won because Zeke is back.

Zeke won. There is no other way to say it. A RB that had two years remaining on his contract, before franchise tag years kick in, just reset the RB market with $50 mil guaranteed.

The Cowboys did not want to do this particular deal. Any attempt to say otherwise is just fans rationalizing this deal into something it isn’t.

Now...if Zeke does turn out to have exceptional durability over the next 5-6 seasons, and produces the way he has...then the pill becomes a heck of a lot easier to swallow. That’s a long way off. Trust me...Jerry isn’t liking the size of the pill at the moment...despite what he will say later today.

I’m looking outside my Austin window to see if it’s snowing.

so Austin is where Hell is.

 

[sean10mm]

Zeke's contract is 50% longer than Gurley's and only adds $5m in guaranteed money compared to Gurley's deal.

so Austin is where Hell is.

Its close.

90 million is way too much.

In 2 years you wont say that

 

[staubach24]

So all this haggling for 6 years and 90 million. Whats’ so hilariously wrong with that is that he had to scratch and claw to get that while his QB REJECTED 30 million a year. Y’know no one is happier about this deal than Dak. He gets to run one of the best offenses in football while Zeke and his healthy offensive line can hide his inadequacies for another year.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

6 years tells me Zeke made some concessions. Not many players want to be on contract for 8 seasons.

He can just hold out again.

 

[Starforever]

That punk better watch his back. He's enraged a lot of Cowboys fans that are just done with him now.

Waaah

 

[Risen Star]

I wish I could hug you guys right now.

 

[JoeKing]

Look at this snowflake yall, check him out

Waaah

LOL.......LOL......

What's funny about warning Zeke, some fans are unhappy with him. Do you not think he deserves a fair warning?

 

[Silver N Blue]

Not at that price with the work load they put on him

I disagree Zeke is a thoroughbred. Today is a happy day. I must move along and continue to celebrate.

 

[HanD]

i hope it came with a haircut and shave clause.....

Very good chance of that happening at some point if he's still highly productive. He'll be looking to cash in one final time before he's 30.
