Likelihood of trade/waiver wire addition of RB?

[darthseinfeld]

According to the FO, it's zero.
1. Tagged pollard who should be healthy to start the season.
2. Malik showed a little something last year
3. Signed free agent vet
4. Drafted a late round RB who can catch. Also signed a full back after the draft.

Why would they sign anyone else right now before TC or pre season games? You have to at least wait till camp at this point.

They refused to use Davis in the playoff game when Pollard got hurt and Zeke struggled. I don't think they are very high on him

Do we need another RB ? ... or are folks really wanting more of a " familiar name " RB ?

Not gonna happen here. Got stand pat

when a team like the Niners doesn’t have to pay a quarterback ridiculous money, they can afford to sign a Christian McCafree .

Ronald Jones is what we wind up with……is it enough? Who knows

the pie only divides into so many pieces

Yep, i think people here are more enamored with getting a big name RB like Henry, or even want Zeke back.. Good lord, please no.. that's like going back to your ex because you got scared and fear the unknown. The backs currently here are fine, let's be more concerned with the OL. if they suck, it don't matter who we have back there. Rather get a vet OT than a vet RB.

We can always resign Zeke.

I thought he looked terrible last year at center. Rather just stick with Biadasz.

We can always resign Zeke.

And I actually think that's what we're going to do eventually.

I was joking when I said that, but I think that's exactly what's going to happen.

I was joking, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Jerry negotiate with Zeke for a 1 year deal.

 

[Bowdown27]

I see the fullback playing the kuhn role with McCarthy. I think they possibly could add rb but I feel it’s going to stick to what they have.

Dalvin cook could have been an option but I feel price and his accusations will hinder him signing.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Love Tony Pollard and Deuce Vaughn as big play guys but it feels like the cowboys are light @ RB. Would like to see a punishing RB in the lineup...

depends if they feel that someone is better than Davis and Jones.

My God, if Jerry brings Zeke back he truly is a moron. That’s definitely no surprise!

 

[CowboyRoy]

The lineup doesn't fit the "power running game" they supposedly are striving for either. Surely anybody that shows up on the waiver wire will just be a spare along the lines of Ronald Jones so I'm struggling to see a real plan here unless Zeke is the insurance policy,,, and he's starting to become a spare himself!

Ronald Jones is better than Zeke. Sadly.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Just like we did at WR last year….smh

Yep, Jerry always seems to have some brain fart at one position or another that ruins our chances to go far.

My God, if Jerry brings Zeke back he truly is a moron. That’s definitely no surprise!

On a vet min deal? It would not be moronic based on what I see on their depth chart. He's better than anything we have not named Pollard. I wouldn't advise it but it's not "moronic".

I wish they'd cut RJ and roll with the young guys plus pollard. But no other moves really needed at this time.

 

[CowboyRoy]

As much as I did not like like how they approached the RB group or lack of it this off-season. But can't disagree with this. ^^^^
As I said it myself a few times over the summer, they will ride with who they have through TC.

Just as they will with the OL.

Dont even try to BS me and tell me that you wanted Zeke gone. Just caught you agreeing when another poster said we should resign zeke.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Week 1 RB roster:

RB Tony Pollard
RB Deuce Vaughn
FB Hunter Luepke













RB Ezekiel Elliott

Just wait and see...

Then they should have released him. Coaches are way too scared to use a new guy. What was he gonna do underperform Zeke's 2 yards a carry? If they make the 53 use em. Weak scared little coaches.

Should have taken a back in the 3rd or 4th round and we would be all set. Unless Vaughn can carry the ball 100 times this year and do a great job of it.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Zeke sucks. My god you have to be one of the worst football minded posters on here. EVERYTHING you say is soo far whacked out wrong, its not even close.

Are you going to post the imaginary "We hate Tyler Biadiz" posts you claimed exist or are you going to just keep ignoring it? You can throw insults at me and deflect all you want. You won't get the energy you seek from me until you post it. Thanks.

lol it’s monumentally stupid having him cut into the younger guys carries. What’s funny is you don’t even have to watch a down of football and you’re already handing him his job back and people can’t see the problem. The reputation is better than the actual play. Jerry’s true superstar back to eat again.
