I don't know but I'm taking a week break from this place once it's announced

Plenty more drama after Zeke! Contracts for Dak and Cooper and upcoming yet to happen suspensions for any number of Cowboys!

Several guys around here set their phones on vibrate and are sitting on them waiting for the good news.

What a stupid contract. We're giving a RB essentially an 8 year extension. We will have him under contract til he's well into his 30's...32

Wow

Couple this with his off the field issues, and the Cowboys got bent over

Now as in what was being said when everyone woke up this morning.

Now as in Ive been working all day and just found this link. I didn't see it posted before. Sorry if its not up to the minute enough for you. Kind of challenging to scroll through all 42 pages of Zeke posts.

It’s all about guaranteed money to be honest

This is utterly depressing. I could live with a 4 year extension for the same structure money-wise.

6 years is some short bus type contract by Jerruh Jones himself
Like almost all contracts, Zeke won't see the end of this one. The Cowboys will be able to get out in 3 or 4 years. He's only 24 now. So barring injury, he should still be productive on 4 years.

not how that works...6 yrs give them wiggle room but up front ie front loaded bonus's and structured in guaranteed money can say 40-43 guaranteed then its essentially a 3yr deal after at maybe 14 per and he can be cut with little dead money left after 3-4 years so hes 30..big deal man.. stop worrying about jerrys money..they know what they are doing with the cap and that why its taken so long, its all the odd details to get him more money now while hes producing 3-4 years and then cut him if he declines..win win .

Best to wait and see how its structured before losing all hope. I doubt its as bad as it seems.
