Twitter: Plan with Zeke according to Mike Fisher

[john van brocklin]

I'm assuming it would be a move that would free up space for this season and next but still allow the team to move on from him after next season.

Hopefully, but with crazy uncle Jerry
One never knows!!!

Just replace "Dez" with "Zeke".

 

[jazzcat22]

Having Jalen Ramsey right now would help us more than having Zeke.

I know hindsight is 20/20, but I disagreed with the then, too.

It was the right pick then and the right pick now.

 

[KeepinTime]

I think the plan is to throw him screen passes for zero yards.

Or loss of yards.

This is all common sense stuff.
Guys that have large GTD salaries will see them flip. Where Dallas can add voidable or not likely to be seen years to draw down cap hits now.

In a time where caps will rise like crazy this smart business.
Zeke's deal, like Dak's will look a lot more team friendly in 2 years than it does now.

 

[Captain-Crash]

maybe we need to pay Zeke more? if he's like dak, more money makes him want to win more.

 

[Sarge]

Zeke haters will get their wish in 2-3 seasons.

by then, Zekes body will be worn down from all the hits.

The “worn down” signs are already starting to show

..I have to say, Zeke has to be one of the fastest declines I've seen from a RB in years. I know the makeshift OL didn't help. But Pollard, showed more burst and speed with same OL. Zeke is barely 25 yrs old.

Weird or what?

2021 will tell us a lot about Zeke.

Was 2020 a result of him being banged up and the injury-ravaged line? Because if not the Cowboys need to find a way to get out of this deal. Running backs normally don't last that long. Unless you're Emmitt, Frank Gore, LaDainian Tomlinson, or Adrian Peterson; backs typically have short shelf lives and we've already seen the best out of Elliott.

He was below average last year even when he had room to run. I hope and assume he’ll at least be average with an improved O line and maybe even slightly above average with a top 5-10 O line.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t change the fact that most RB’s with a top 5-10 O line will be slightly above average and yet there’s only one team paying the most money ever to a RB to be elite, not slightly above average and we haven’t seen “elite” zeke since 2016. Jerrah is stuck in his glory years of the early 90’s.

Things ignorant fans say...

Ya think ya slick but ya ain’t!

I'm that oil that peeps want, but once it's on them personally...
Regrets abound.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

We might extend him!!! What?!? Just when I thought Jerry couldn't be any worse of a GM he does something like this, and completely redeems himself.

Zeke hate...you didn't even read it. "team friendly" you casually left out. What the f...

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Ya think ya slick but ya ain’t!

Hello pot calling kettle black!

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Means nothing. Just like everything we hear about players all offseason and training camp

So why do we have to single out zeke? Gotta have an outlet for some zeke hate.

 

[Captain-Crash]

He's not making enough. Pay him more and he will win more games, it's so simple even a quarterback can do it.

It's not about zeke. It's about any time this is said about any player

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

You're right, I read that wrong...I'm really tired right now lol

No you just hate zeke. It';s okay! We just have to say what it is.
