Trade Ezekiel Elliott If He Wants Too Much (think Hershel Walker Type Trade)

[panchucko]

Your words “RBs can be found all the time.” if it’s so easy why would anyone trade a bunch of picks for our RB.

Elliott is a great RB,but RBs can be found all the time. Hype Elliott up and then make another Blockbuster Type Trade like Hershel Walker if possible. Trade Elliott to some dump like Baltimore or some abyss like Buffalo...Don't sweat it and trade for draft picks. Almost certain we could get atleast 2 1st round picks and possible other picks for him....The Hershel Walker trade got us a Super Bowl Dynasty team...If anything like that can be had GO FOR IT!!!

Old man, ain't no Herschel Walker deals happening ever again. Get over it

The RB position is just not coveted like it was in the Hershel days. Not even close. Zeke could probably garner some draft capital but no way 2 #1's or anything. Maybe a decent player and a #2 and then the team would have to negotiate a contract. It's a long shot. Zeke will be back, it just might not be until the 2nd/3rd pre-season game.

Teams are desperate, GMs and Coaches will want to save their jobs and willing to spend now and pay for it later.

One of our advantages is that our GM can afford to play the long game because he knows the Owner isn't going to fire him.

That's why Jaylon is with the Cowboys.

Genius Jerry.

GM's and coaches want to keep their jobs, not lose them by trading the farm on a bad investment.

The team, and you, look better *today* when you mortgage the future. That's what GMs and coaches do in a win now league.

For that matter, that's what happens across corporate America. Mortgage the future to save your bacon now, or at least long enough for you to get while the getting is good.

Pan YOU NAILED IT! you see that phrase all the time on here about Zeke, "let him go we will and can find his replacement with ease". Good luck with the search.

If it's me, I'm trading him for 5 first round picks. One each from all of the 5 worst teams this year. That way, I get all first of the first picks in the draft next year. And then I'm trading each one of those picks for 2 more first round picks each. In three years I'll have the whole first round.

Is this how make believe works?

 

[GMO415]

If Dallas got two 1st then I'd consider it

 

[KingintheNorth]

Dear Lord baby Jesus, lyin' there in your ghost manger, just lookin' at your Baby Einstein developmental videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors. I would like to ask you that I don't have to be subjected to dumb threads like this anymore. Amen.

so are you the only one that knows RBs can be found all the time and the other 31 teams haven't figured it out and we can pull a fast one.....hmmm, those idiot NFL guys in all those front offices...they should just come here to learn how to build a team

This statement si true. But great running backs are not found all the time.

Exactly. That's pre-salary cap fantasy at this point.

I have to wonder, however, if the Cowboys brought in Morris and Ajayi to add to the backs already in camp, might they trade Zeke? As much as I love my fellow Buckeye, this is 2019 and Zeke has brought a lot of drama. For the right price, I'd move on and go with those guys.

It makes me sad to say that. I thought Zeke could be our next Emmitt, but the biggest difference between them seems to be maturity. Emmitt had it, Zeke is still looking for it.

Sorry, I don't see it that way. And no GM would either.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

That type of trade will only happen to draft a QB

lol. Dak's the starter.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Can we trade him for the #4 overall pick in 2016?

 

[Altestic]

There will never be a Hershel Walker type trade in the NFL ever again.

Only for a star QB. but no other position.

 

[EST_1986]

lol. Dak's the starter.

No I meant a Walker type trade. Teams only so that for the chance to draft top prospect QBs.

 

[Cowfan75]

I wonder, if he had been suspended for one or two games the most recent incident, if that would have caused him to re-evaluate his worth to the team.

Not with free agency being what it is.

We can get a 2021 first round pick for Zeke. Then go all in for Trevor Lawrence.
