Jerry on Zeke (after the draft): “No, no, not at all. That ship hasn’t sailed yet. We haven’t made a decision."

I thought that way BEFORE the draft.
I've seen nothing since to change my mind.
He would take up a valuable roster spot and is the definition of progress stopper.

That’s the thing….Zeke for 4 or 5 games early on the season? Might be the best back we have. I guess it depends on what Ronald Jones has.

If you sign him and three backs are better than him, you cut him. Progress is only stopped if there are better players on the roster and they keep him anyway.

You added Jones and now pocket Pollard in the draft. That's enough.

Exactly as long as it is on a prove it type deal I would be fine. If he cannot prove it he is gone.

so your sitting here saying that Zeke is better than Pollard. Just want to get it straight. Are you man enough to say it?

Straw man. I don't see anyone wanting to hand Zeke a $10m deal or guaranteed money.

Zeke's numbers were pretty good early in the season and he and Pollard made a decent combo although Pollard surpassed him as a player. It was only late in the year when Elliott was battling injury that his play really went down. I think he could play well enough for us early in the year before the injuries that happen to an aging player or the wall hits.
Through the first seven games (before missing the next two), he had 109 carries for 441 yards (4.04 per carry) as the lead back. He also started his TD streak and had 12 for the season. His numbers weren't great, but they were decent at that point.

I didn’t say that at all and you know it.
