Signed by Cowboys Jaydon Blue signs 4-year deal

Nobody hated on Pollard or Dowdle, if that's your example. Our FO took the criticism there, not Tony or Rico. The only RB in recent memory who endured the wrath of the fan base was Zeke bc he held out to get his deal early and then proceeded to suck.

TonyP and Rico didn't get paid mega $$$ by us.

They played out.

Murray left for mega $$$

Zeke was smart. Got paid.

Yeah, you can thank Emmitt Smith for that last I checked a lot of these rules in the NFL became from our players good bad or different, but he held out before his rookie year then he held out again... That and I believe Sam Bradford might have been the last player to get some kind of Super Record deal like an insane overpriced contract that made the NFL look and say you know what the veterans deserve more that money..

ESmith. Elite players playing on Rookie deals.

Pay them.

Emmitt didn't take heat from fans. Jerry is the one who got blamed for Emmitt and rightly so. Emmitt didn't hold out. His contract expired and Jerry was trying to take a stand against player salaries.

Aren't all non 1st round drafted rookie deals for 4 years?

Emmitt's contract had a year left. He had 4 year rookie deal and held out after his 3rd year.

He was asking for QB money but did not get it
He still took a very lucrative and frontloaded 4 year deal.

 

[DFWJC]

Yes, and we get him for 4 freaking years.

And if he sucks, he can be cut.

The point is that fanbase was not anti-emmit.

It’s not about money but language in the contract

I hope it's span

And when we use him up, and he wants a 2nd contract, fans can hate on him.

8)

By then he'll want 129 million, and Jerry will pay him that

 

[Coogiguy03]

And if he sucks, he can be cut.

we don't always like to cut players

 

[blueblood70]

Yes, and we get him for 4 freaking years.

So most players are around four years unless they're so bad they can't stick around a rookie contract I mean we waited around on Rico for how many years he had finally had one good year this guys better than Rico if I'm wrong come find a receipt but I could promise you this is Tony Pollard 2.0 at worse he's getting a surprise some people he ain't gonna be a lead weight like Malik Davis how long was he around I just curious as why this triggers you that actually a player that probably should have went in the 3rd round if we didn't have a deep running back draft we got in the 5th round blazing speed it's gonna be a difference maker if the coaching staff doesn't screw it up you know like Mike McCarthy not understanding how to utilize Turpin or Vaughn if they don't screw this up this is gonna be a very good complimentary player and yes he can run the same plays Tony Pollard ran..Book IT

I'm putting it in three-inch headlines"

"Jaydon Blue will be a very good complementary running back for this team for at least 4 years if the coaches do not screw it up..."
