At the end of the day, the only real answer is they shouldn't have spent a top 5 pick on a RB in the first place. Compared against what a nice mid-round pick like Murray gave us when we gave him a great line and a run-oriented offense to play in, he didn't add nearly enough to justify the massive leap in investment from 3rd round pick to 4th overall pick to justify the expense.
It really isn't that hard to admit this.
It doesn't much matter how good Zeke was in a vacuum. In today's NFL, it's just bad business.
If we spend our 17th pick in the 1st round on a placekicker this year and he's routinely one of the best 2 or 3 kickers in the game, no amount of praising him and drooling over his production will change the fact that it's stupidity to spend that high a pick on that position. And that's even after we just had a 2019 season where we lost multiple games thanks to the kicking. Whereas, when we drafted Zeke, we had a RB who had just finished 4th in the league in rushing in 2015.
