Twitter: This sounds encouraging

Zeke will be signed. Stephen's on it. This comes under the heading of common sense.

I'm so pissed I could spit nails. Tom Landry era if a player disrespected the franchise of the coach no other franchise a coach would take that player. No it's not all right for the franchise to screw up either. But I just don't know what happened to those days of integrity can you sign a freaking contract live up to it. Give me a bunch of Bill Bates football players and a great coach and I'll win a championship. Screw these prima donnas. Can't believe all these people that want those high-priced leftover free agents. They want the name they don't want the championship

I'll tell you what happened to the times you long for Archie Bunker ....... Your generation failed.


NOW GET OFF MY LAWN!!

It’s rare for a hold out to actually last into the season, so I didn’t see reason to worry now.

At the risk of sounding like a Zeke-hater (I am not), I can't help feel a bit hollow thinking the Cowboys appear to have capitulated so quickly.

I guess we wait on the contract details

The point stands. Maybe someone should right a thesis about why every idiot decides to create threads about whatever some moron with a Twitter posts.

Maybe so it doesn’t get buried in another thread? Most guys like me hit this once in a bit just to keep tabs. I don’t have time to read every thread from start to stop. Don’t like the thread? Don’t read it.

Interesting. Especially because there is no Benedicts in Frisco

I’m actually surprised Dallas would give him anything.

He’s got 2 years left on his deal.

Another Zeke thread. How original.

Feel free to skip over them. Simple.

North Plano. Very close.

Ty Rock! Needed to hear this.

 

[Jipper]

if he doesn't report by August 6th then he doesn't accrue a year towards FA....so exactly what leverage does he have?

They started this new contract chatter in an interview, they are hollow and terrible negotiators.

11 days and he dealing with the Joneses.

Better then most of the other crappy ones. With the usuals as yourself crapping on everything.
Don’t like it don’t read it.

Don’t read them ... who peed in your cereal

Maybe someone needs to write a thesis about people such as yourself as to why needs to crap on everything about threads and the teams they claim to be a fan of. Then throw in the childish name calling to.

Why do so many get all excited about some "report" that states this or that and NEVER quotes ANYONE connected with what they're reporting on. For all we know their source could be a janitor who was working and thought he hear this or that while cleaning just outside the door of an office. When someone directly associated with something states something then I believe it, but not when I read or hear some unknown source.

Jane Slater reported this on NFLN. And she said is a reliable source.
The report came from a place a few minutes from The Star in Frisco, TX, and said it looked like Zeke just finished a workout.

 

[DuncanIso]

Zeke should honor his original contract since he has 2 years left. Would understand him demanding a new contract a year from now, but not now.

That would not be very smart for Zeke.

He's only GTD 3.8 million for 2019. No more bonus $$$.

The 5th year option can still be revoked by Dallas if Zeke gets injured.

Basically, he'd be taking a big chance to play on the old contract.

not happening.

Did you read his start a thesis thread or are you familiar with him in anyway? Dude's the biggest hypocrite and whiner on this board. I just enjoy giving it back from time to time.

Seems a bit like the pot calling the kettle black since you are the one whining here, and apparently doing so because of some other beef you had with him in some other thread besides this one.
