I’d like to see them hold off on extending both. In fact I’d prefer they not extend Zeke at all. Dak should wait a year. There’s enough doubt surrounding him, even with the good things he’s done, that he should face a prove it year, like Garrett.
I almost certainly won’t get my wish on either front.
I guess I am in the minority.
To me, Zeke is beyond important.
Without him..we lose.
Now without DAK..?
We have no litmus paper test yet there..
Before they extend him into the stratosphere..
I would like to see how we play if he is injured or unavailable.
Could Rush or White win with Zeke and our defense?
I definitely think so.
And if they could..
hmmmmm.
We have played with DAK and no Zeke in 2017 and know what to expect from DAK.
We is not nearly as good.
But does Zeke carry the team if Rush or White has to start for real.?
And if they can..is DAK devalued?
I want to know this before we commit 15% of our cap to DAK and later wish we had not.
Call me curious.
But this team has not finished the work on this yet.
They could and should extend Zeke first and let DAK earn his new contract still.
Yes, they might save some money right now redoing DAK..
but they also could cough a big hair ball if we find this team might succeed without DAK tied to a mega-deal.
Just saying.
