Another running back on a team that has not won anything of significance and does not recognize the RB position has been devalued in today's NFL
They'll probably pay him. Honestly Zeke is the only thing the Cowboys have. I'm not sold on Prescott.
Like all other teams that give their starting RB good money, the farthest they'll ever get is one and done in the playoffs. Look at the careers of Adrian Peterson, Larry Johnson, etc. Peterson got to an NFCCG once but that was more because they had Brett Favre that year.
Jerry Jones will have to spend a lot, since Prescott wants a contract at 34-35 million a year like Wilson and Roethlisberger, Cooper who has one year left at his contract will probably want to be one of 5 the most paid WR in the NFL, and the Cowboys will have no choice but to keep him, since you can not give a first round pick for a player you only keep for a year and a half and of course Zeke will want a higher contract than Gurley....The Cowboys will hope that Zeke is not going to be crazy in his contract requests like Bell otherwise it'll be a big nightmare for the Cowboys.
I'd let Prescott walk if he wants that much. He's an above average QB but that's elite QB money. Though you can count on Jerry Jones doing something stupid so he'll get his money
Colin Cowherd is right ... The value of Zeke is at its highest right now, so that would be the best time for Dallas to trade him .... Often the RBs are worse when they have about 2000 carries in their career or something like that
In hindsight, yes it's easy to say now, especially with the drama that the steelers had because of him in the last 2 seasons, but they would have been very smart if the steelers would trade Bell after his best season of his career in 2016 .... I don't know if they would have had a big offert because of his contracts request that probably few team would have been ready to offered to Bell, but the steelers should have tried to trade him to see if the offer would have been good.
Running Backs are a dime a dozen.
At least Skip Bayless has not lost his confidence!
