Interesting.......I think it's a great contract for both Cowboys and Zeke, but trust me, Barley's going to blow both these contracts through the roof.

When it comes to new-money average, Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott beat Rams running back Todd Gurley by $625,000 per year — $15 million to $14.375 million. But there are more factors to the Elliott vs. Gurley contract than new-money average.
So let’s compare the two contracts, under various metrics.
Signing bonus: Gurley got a whopping $21 million. Elliott’s is only $7.5 million.
Fist-year salary: Gurley received $950,000, fully guaranteed at signing. Elliott gets $752,000, fully guaranteed at signing.
Second-year compensation: Gurley received $5 million, guaranteed for injury at signing and fully guaranteed on the third day of the second league year. Elliott has $19.8 million, fully guaranteed at signing.
