Twitter: Ezekiel Elliot speaks on Tony Pollard

[xwalker]

I'd love to get B Robinson from Texas!

Are you ok drafting him in the 1st round?

 

[xwalker]

Jerry is bringing Zeke back next year and Stephen will low ball Pollard, who will sign with the Eagles.

Or not...

It's the group of fans who for some reason can't handle both on the roster. The players are fine.
My stance stays the same. We need both. I'd actually give Davis a couple plays.

My take is that Davis solidifies himself in the #3 back role by the end of this season. He's actually kind of a smaller version of Zeke and Pollard.. He's a powerful crafty runner who also catches the ball like a receiver. He can't be an every down back until he puts on 10 pounds of muscle because 205 pound backs don't last in this league unless they're change of pace types.. Which he really isn't. He's much more of a 3 down back to me. I really like his game though but you can see that he just needs to get a little bigger and stronger.. Training table should take care of that.

Even if both remain on the team next year, I'd like to see a RB drafted in rounds 2, 3 or 4.

we need a stud DT and CB

Should be a late pick...if Zeke is gone, yes

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Who asks him these ridiculous questions?

“Hey Zeke are you upset other players get the ball?”

 

[links18]

Or not...

 

[IceStar-D7]

Love Zek... Dallas needs to use a different blocking scheme for Zeke and you'd see bigger runs from him also.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Very mature response from Zeke. He's become a team leader.

So zeke is smarter than a few posters on here?

 

[J_Allen]

If Zeke will agree to restructure his contract and lower the cap hit a little bit then I would love to see him play 4 or 5 more years and retire as a Cowboy.

 

[Typhus]

If falls late in the first he'd be a good pick.

He would be and probably will be for some teams, just not sure I ever want to see that high of a draft pick used on a RB, especially in this draft which is deep at the position.
There will be some solid RBs available later in the draft, no need to burn the first pick on one.

If you're going to build your offense around the running back there is no point in ever taking a running back high.

That's the combo right there. Someone needs to carry the mail.

Sometime there is a steep hill to climb, that is Zeke's job, then other times there is a river that Tony can get around that mountain to find the way to the top. Someone found the compass.

Zeke worth is explained on the 2 yard line last week. Pollard Run in 1st down…no gain. 2nd down Pollard run…no gain…3rd down Zeke big head in the center of some LB cheat…Touchdown. We definitely need both

 

[CowboyRoy]

I hope we can restructure and keep both next year. They make a great duo

Lol….yah right. Zeke is gone.

 

[CowboyRoy]

We need them both.

We don’t need zeke and his 18 million dollar 3.9 ypc average.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Zeke took a while to grow up, but he’s become such a positive locker room guy and a true leader on the team. Very valuable on and off the field

Little too late. His value is laughable,

we definitely don’t. And not for 18 million.

Pollard repeatedly getting stuffed at the goal line is Exhibit A as to why Zeke is vital to the team.

I get it. We all get it, Roy. You don't like him for reasons outside of football that you've
chosen to believe over facts.

No In fact I don’t like him because he sucks at his job and he’s paid like he doesn’t. I’ve seen zeke get stuffed plenty of times.

any big, short yardage back can do that for us, for about 16 million less and do it better.

heck Dak can fall in from the 1.
