Jerry: Hopkins unlikely, Zeke possible

[DandyDon52]

I already knew this lol.
If elliot will sign a cheap deal, whatever jones boys think is ok to them they will bring him back.

Only dreamers would think jerry would even try to get hopkins.

Like trying to quit drugs with your parents being enablers.

So you are blaming your parents for your addiction? But hey, at least MountainCowgirl knows what you mean.

It’s times like these when I get really annoyed at the cowboys’ unwillingness to take risks. I think the team is pretty damn close to legitimately competing for a superbowl and an acquisition like Hopkins could be the move that puts them over the edge. The defense is rock solid and has even been improved upon from last season. It is a difference maker. The offense has most of the pieces but could really use another pass catcher and some shoring up of the oline. I realize that making a move for Hopkins could impact your future but at some point you have to make that call, like all franchises do at some point unless they have Mahomes. This should be that moment but the Cowboys are going to stand pat and their chances of improving on last season will be lower for it.

How is Hopkins going to put them over the top? Another expensive receiving weapon isnt what they need. A better Oline is what they need. A better running game is what they need. Blocking and running. Hopkins does NOTHING to solve that problem.

Dak Prescott can be our short yardage RB.

 

[diamonddelts]

Dak Prescott can be our short yardage RB.

His running with flippers on will definitely help him in that endeavor.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Dunna know what is worse, Jerald thinking Sequel can help the team or giving the unwanted Sequel false hope.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Dak Prescott can be our short yardage RB.

Zeke could be our center.

Man crush on some JAG RB but no love for a coach who helped build your dynasty.

I swear if it wasnt for Jimmy's massive contribution to building the Cowboys dynasty, Jerry would argurably be one of the worst owners ever

An in escapable, never ending man crush. And no love for Jimmy is because he's looked like a complete buffoon for nearly 30 years. No doubt that the dynasty bought him the illusion that he actually did something besides hire the HC at the time.

Zeke is certainly worth bringing back for a price that fits the role. Currently the backs we have to replace him are downgrades.

I don't know if I agree that they are downgrades. If you mean that we currently don't know whether they are downgrades, I can agree to that. Elliott's game is in decline, so it's possible that they are upgrades to him. The fact that we don't know that is why I think we should re-sign him if the cost is reasonable. It's better to sign a player now and find out that you don't need him than to find out you need a player to late to sign him.

There won’t be near as much hating on Zeke if he’s brought back on a cheap one year deal. The players that receive the most hate by the fans on this board are the ones that are getting paid big money. Players look a lot better to Cowboys fans when they’re playing for cheap.

Don't know. He's already in the hate zone. Some fans can't stop once they start.

They will only sign Zeke if they think they need him after a few weeks of training camp and they have an injury. No need to be upset either way. They only bring him in if needed.

They’re downgrades until proven otherwise. Zeke put up just under 900 yards last season and 12 TDs in 15 games. He may be in decline, but I still believe he’s better than the players we have to replace him, plus he’s still an excellent blocker. We should re-sign him because we don’t know exactly what we have behind him. We can’t be settling for FG’s all season, because we can’t punch it in the endzone from 5 yards out. Picking up one or two yards in a very critical situation could be the difference between winning and losing a game. We can’t afford to miscalculate with the RBs we have, and assume they can get it done. We’ve miscalculated at RB before and it cost us, which is why we ended up drafting Zeke. We can put it on Dak all season to pick up short yardage situations with runs and throws.

That was a nice way of saying we want you gone.

But I see you are still dreaming of your hero dominating carries at 3.8 ypc

I see you are still trying to throw on sly insults. But they are really stupid.

 

[Beaker42]

Jerry, for the love of Gawd ......... PLEASE SELL THE TEAM.

 

[StarMan2112]

Why in the world would Jerry bring Zeke back? Anyone not legally blind can see he’s not good anymore. Hasn’t he already fleeced you out of enough money Jerry?

 

[Ranching]

Jerry has a hard time letting go of the past.

Dez and Romo don't agree

 

[zrinkill]

Please make it happen ....... the meltdown of some of the most annoying posters on this board will be the most entertaining thing in the off-season.

 

[Pass2Run]

I told you so... lol
