I want Zeke!

[Ranching]

I know a little football and I think Zeke can still serve a purpose. With a good contract and a new direction, he can really help.
At this stage, I see him as a great short yard, tough runner...which we don't have....I also see him as an HBack type player...he's a good blocker...part time fullback and he can actually line up on the flex TE position....he had great hands.....I'd love this role for him.....my bud @CowboyRoy is gonna kill me, but that's my take.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

I'm on board too. He's smart enough to realize he's not going to be a featured back anymore and having him back as a role player (at the right cost) makes a lot of sense.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

He's available.

Go get him.

I think Zeke is the best option right now.
There are no other RB's out there, unless they trade for Henry. But then his contract is not conducive to do so.

Zeke can come in and be productive if the utilize him better. They can have a package of plays, even if he just is in for pass protection, or FB role, as well get his shares of touches.
If they keep the FB they just brought in as well. Need a yard or 2 or 3 for a 1st down, now you have options. Who gets the ball, run or pass. Dak is protected, or they have the blocking to get those yards. Heck that would be a great time to hand off to Deuce, OL opens a hole, gets some FB blocks, and he is gone.

Time to move on, in my opinion.

Pollard doesn't need Zeke hover over him...

That's cool!! I like it!

If it lowers his 6 mill cap hit AND it doesnt keep TP and Deuce from touches I would be ok with it.... he should not be carring the ball 10 times though, TP and Deuce just have much more explosiveness that they can take it to the house from anywhere on the field.

Vet minimum and I'm game....

Pathetic.

 

[Rayman70]

jeesh

 

[BleedSilverandBlue]

I hate to say it, but bring him back if it can be done on a deal hovering around $3-5 mil a year. It would fill a pretty major hole in the roster right now and this team will need another veteran running back going into the year. Probably makes more sense to re-sign him than some other random vet floating around out there.

Zeke can be effective with 5-10 carries a game when he is deployed in a situational role. Short yardage, pass protection, goal line, etc.

 

[Bobhaze]

No thanks. There’s a reason 31 other teams have passed on Zeke so far. We Need to move on.

Pollard calls Zeke his mentor....if it's a good locker room, there's no issue....most issues come from the outside, from people that don't get the brotherhood dynamic....Pollard isn't a Stud, I don't think he would be against it.

folks need to understand hes done. His legs are dead and backs like him are a dime a dozen. If we sign him, who we cutting in the rb room?

 

[Sydla]

LOL.

Nah.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Sign me up. Cowboys Roy said he’d leave this site and fanbase if we get him. Sign him for that alone.

 

[Cowboy_svt]

i think injury hampered him cause early in the season he wasnt bad at all.
My only issue is id rather save the roster spot for someone else

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

LOL.

Nah. We gotta learn to cut the cord on these guys.

I agree. I just thought they’d address short yardage in the draft and they didn’t.

It’s the story every season though. Gets hurt and slows down.

TY. Logic wins.
