Per Fisher, Zeke signing is eminent

[sacase]

Only question is, who's getting cut in the RB room? Especially if and when we draft a RB.

Deuce to PS. He's terrible and the real waste of a roster spot.

I’m not sure why this is that difficult. Backup RB who can come in on 3rd downs and protect the QB with the best of em for a season while you’re rookie RB is learning how!

Exactly. Zeke as a backup is not a bad thing. Also would be a huge help to the rookie starter I hope they get with one of their three picks tonight.

Deuce looked baaaaaad

Because he's a waste of a roster spot. Zeke on 3rd down gives the defense one less player to worry about

You tell that to the blitzing LB that gets trucked!

Deuce looked baaaaaad

He's my pet cat, and I still think they misused him. That said, your not wrong.

 

[StarLord]

So like.. a one day retirement signing?

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Deuce looked baaaaaad

Deuce only got mop-up carries behind the backup line when the other team knew all Dallas wanted to do was run to kill the clock.

Not apologizing for Deuce but we can't take much from his 2023 stats, good or bad.

Until he shows different, your right

Dak's bff is back. Jones' doing all they can to entice Dak to stay.

Maybe Dak told them he would take $12 less on his new contract if they re-signed his bud.

I can see it now…some one will screw it up….

With the second pick in the 2024 nfl draft, the Dallas Cowboys, select. Zeke Elliot…
In the meantime, by the time they correct this, the team selecting after us, takes the RB Dalles intended to draft.

Would be better then drafting him top 5 like they did last time.

What's the vet minimum this year like $900K?

 

[gimmesix]

He's my pet cat, and I still think they misused him. That said, your not wrong.

He did look pretty good in the preseason. Got to prove he's worth more than that. Thing is, it's not like he's in some great RB room even if we sign Zeke. I'm not going to be sitting here saying, Oh, there's no way we can keep Vaughn because we have Dowdle, Freeman and Elliott. The bar isn't that high. Of course, that doesn't mean Vaughn can reach it. (Yes, that was a short joke.)

I want Deuces dad to cut him. He brought him in , then he takes him out. Its only right lol

Mine as well take advantage of his strengths and run him with Turpin and get creative

Deuce is a waste of a roster spot.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Deuce is not terrible, nor a roster spot waste. We simply need a better Oline. Cowboys could use Deuce much better with a better Oline.

 

[Cowboy4ever]

Not a bad thing. Zeke is not scaring anyone running the ball but can be effective between the tackles. Also is the best pass protecting RB out there. A rookie will likely not be good at protection the first year and do you really want Dowdle in that role.

None are worth keeping over Zeke and a draft pick. So it doesn’t matter who gets cut.

 

[Ranching]

I'm a Zeke fan. They overdrafted and they overpaid, but he's a fun, dependable player. His pass pro is elite and he helps on short yardage.

If you are hoping for explosive plays or trick plays at Center, you will probably be disappointed.

As long as he can block....he will be an asset. He can also mentor Brooks, if we get him

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Remember you can put veterans on the practice squad now, so the Cowboys can keep Zeke and/or Royce Freeman around in that capacity.

 

[sunalsorises]

Good signing. He learned a lot in New England that can help Dallas. He now knows how to deflate a football in the bathroom and set up spy cameras. There's a good chance he knows how to extend the communication from the sideline to the QB past the cutoff point as well.
