Practice Squad Cowboys sign Dalvin Cook

[jrumann59]

meh, would have preferred if he was going to sign late to sign him post week 1

 

[Creeper]

Another Rocky Colavito signing.

 

[jrumann59]

didn't he only have like 25 yards that gamer

 

[Bullflop]

A towel boy?

Ouch -- I wouldn't say that to his face, although, here, it might easily go unnoticed! . . .

 

[jrumann59]

I remember his old beat up car he was still driving. Very humble guy. I always liked him.Wasn't that Alfred Morris

Wonder if Eddie George has any tread left on the tires

Pretty sad when this is a marquee signing for us

Our two marquee signings were a couple of declining RBs. However, in late August you’re not going to do much better than Dalvin Cook.

Mods mods did I really get this first, oh my gosh the CROWNING achievement of my 40 years of life!!!! I make @Risen Star look like a stepchild!! lol jk

Oh, for sure, you crying crew are right...Halas shouldn't have sold his morales down stream and the Dallas Cowboys should never have sold a team in the NFL to Murchison. It wasn't even the 'old money.' They should have been like the KC team and had to just gamble with the AFC.

Just ask the internet...

 

[Offsides]

The biggest question mark is if both Zeke and Cook can fit in the Salvation Army Kettle on Thanksgiving Day

Fit or Get?

Not without offering some team a premium for some backup. And we don't do premium, just unleaded.

I keep hearing from the YouTube community that Dowdle and Deuce are better than Cooks and Elliot. I guess we will find out.

I personally think last year was a fluke combo of not being 100% and playing for a garbage team. He was a 4.4 ypc guy in 22. I think this has a good chance at being a big pickup

 

[KJJ]

Dalvin Cook has really fallen off the past couple of years being relegated to the practice squad. I guess it will come down to how well Deuce performs as to when we might see Cook. Deuce is going to have to make some plays in the running game this season.

Joke all you want, but they are our, thunder and lightning! Tell me you aren't rooting for them?

"Blunder and Frightening" ... autocorrect

 

[Whyjerry]

Why is Zeke here? Anyone?

 

[gimmesix]

I just don’t get it unless they are cutting zeke

I think we're frankensteining their corpses together. "It's alive!"

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

We like our guys. Jerry always hangs on to people that should have been flushed years ago.

 

[gimmesix]

I wouldn't mind if this was a Cook for Zeke swap out.

I think they are just looking for a combination that works out of all the backs we've got. Both Elliott and Cook could be cooked and Dowdle and Vaughn have only seen limited carries and might not can handle or be worth more than that.

I don't think there's any reason to cut any of them yet. Give it a few games and let it sort itself out. That may ultimately be that we have no back worth starting, but that's what many of us were expecting anyway with this cheap plan the Joneses are using for the position.

So, it's Dak to Ceedee to the 5 then punch it in with either Zeke or Cooks.
We know what Zeke can do on Pass pro. With Cooks being a big back, I assume he can do the same.
Just strange to have 2 older backs who do the same thing and are not gonna run away from anybody.
Will be interesting how long he stays on the practice squad, may be longer than he realizes.
