Pollard pass protects like a 6th-grade girl. Zeke still does things that are unique to him. There is value, just not as a lead back.
You can draft a RB for pass protection that would be cheaper than what Zeke’s minimum would be and hey, they might actually offer something in the running game…. You know, the primary function of a RB!

I swear I only saw Mailk come in on the last play. Crazy, considering he's better. Another failure from the coaching staff not seeing that and risking winning to appease their baby.

You are making a big mistake blaming Zeke for ALL of it. If a guy like Parsons getting ready to cash it in.....why not zeke first?

Zeke gave his soul for this team. Yep...he was controversial at first. I actually believe he had/has some clinical disorder. Never went treated because of nepotism.

What other rushing champion did you see block like he did?

I know...yer sick of people saying "ZEKE" and "block"....in the same sentence. Doesn't change the facts.

Zeke gone and Pollard rehab. A suspect O-line, Dak, an unknown RB, terrible or new OC. Good times.
I didn’t blame him for anything. I just made the observation he looks done… has no burst and that the impression I got from his after game interview… that he had even come to that realization!

What use is he and why can't you fill this role with a young player for pennies on the dollar?
Replacing him is fine if you replace him with a good RB, but just any RB regardless of talent is not acceptable. Zeke is definitely no longer the back he used to be, but we still can't replace him with just anything that has 2 legs. If you can't replace him with a good back, then cut the contract accordingly till you can.

..I knew it. Zeke is Dallas homer. If he stays in shape off season. He could have productive year.

If he could play a Ritchie Anderson FB role, I'd say OK. But he can't even do that.

So, a prediction. Pollard comes back on a team friendly deal because of the leg and Zeke gives them cap relief on a pay cut.

No changes at RB next year.
Pollard will get tagged still OR the deal will not be as team friendly as you think

A fractured fibula is a 8-10 week heal and only one month rehab
It will barely affect his market

Jerry traded Emmitt Smith after everything he did for the franchise. But something tells me he will find a way to keep Zeke around for another year.

Question I have on TP. Will he be productive again, after injury?

Why wouldn't he? Its a country club. Camp cupcake. He makes 16M a year to dive into the line for 3 yards and pass block.
