His contract hasn't started yet. When it does he has 50 million guaranteed. Paying any RB that kind of money is ridiculous.
How can you say it hasn't hindered anything or wont? That's just naïve. RB position is where you save money, not blow it. Football 101. And especially not on a guy like Zeke.
Do you honestly think Dak can do anything without Zeke?
People seem to forget how bad Dak looked without Zeke in 2017..
Opposing teams have openly came out and said that their number one priority when facing the Cowboys is stoping Zeke..
Not Dak, Zeke.
See how many games Dak has "won" when Zeke doesn't rush for more than 100 yards in a game.
If teams focus on Zeke, by default, the passing lanes will open up.
Do some of you guys even understand basic football concepts?
You might say that any RB can have success with our O line but what makes Zeke worth his money is that he's a complete back..
Pollard may be a little bit faster, but run him all game and by the third quarter he'll be worn out.
There's a reason why guys like Marion Barber and Pollard can't be Bell Cows like Zeke.
Not to mention, Zeke can run routes, catch the ball and he's a good blocker also..
You'll need three diffrent RBs just to replace Zeke and what he does and even then, deffences will know exactly what to expect from them just like when Lance Dumbar was in the game.
Zeke is literally a nightmare for defenses and here you are pooping on him SMH
All the while, propping up other mediocre players that live off of Zeke's coat tails..
Crazy stuff.
