Zeke is back

According to one of my sources in the Cowboys front office, free agent RB Ezekiel Elliott is signing with the team as they finish the ground work on his new deal.

And he's hungry !!!

Sources was correct
THE DALLAS COWBOYS & EZEKIEL ELLIOTT HAVE AGREED TO A DEAL

Yea, he'll get you to the SB...

As bad as the OL is they could use the pass protection.

I'm totally fine with it as long as they don't break the bank. Zeke is still a quality role player. Not a premier running back at all, but he still has a place. Deal needs to be low money, short term and no guarantees. Load him up on incentives if you want, but make him earn them.

According to my source they want him here as a mentor for Brooks and certain 3rd down situations.

maybe as an Uber driver

Well, he hasn’t made the Final Cut yet.

Yeah?

Zeke is a lot of things. I don’t believe mentor is one of those things.

He had a couple of good games with the Pats. Pats offense struggled last year so there is that. If the salary hit is low, Zeke is not a bad option as a guy that gets in 10-15 plays a game.

I’ll bet we have at least 8 or so guys on here that could play 10-15 snaps a game and do as well (maybe better) than Zeke. lconn knows football. If I was Jerry I’d contact him…have him hold some TFF tryouts, evaluate talent and submit a few finalists.

With patriot as their GM they'll never lose another game.

I don't have any worries about the running back position. If true, I think Zeke and Dak have a little more magic left in them. I like them as a pair. Dowdle can do everything Pollard could, and Deuce will probably surprise a lot of us this year. Add Zeke in and a few of the other guys and they'll be fine. Plug holes elsewhere in my opinion or take a flyer on a late round guy.

If he makes the team it should get them a better draft pick in 2025.

I got nothing. 2022.Zeke on the Cowboys sucked pretty badly. I have a hard time visualizing another campaign with Zeke being even that good.

Nothing essential of him having signed has broken yet. Imminent is the word the sports heads are using and not posted yet on the Cowboyzone site.

Waste of a roster spot

Nothing positive will come out of this for Dallas. He is toast. He had a few good years. The average NFL RB doesn’t get many.

I guess the coaches do not have a clue, maybe some of you football guys can give them a call and let them know how stupid they are, maybe give them a few pointers.

I say it was a good move, even if it is just for what he brings to the locker room.

Upgrades the locker room immediately...and production may surprise everyone

I am not a football coach just weekend warrior but he wasn’t producing that much before he left and most thought the other guy who just left was better back then. I can't imagine that there wasn’t a young stud off the draft, better then and old used back, unless they needed the draft spot for another position and they don't see running backs as that valuable anymore.

This is shaping up to be an awesome year, just amazing. I can't wait......

I wish they had grabbed a back as well, I imagine they tried hard but just could not get a trade suitor, there are still some good backs left, they need to get a fourth round pick and grab one. Zeke ( if he makes the team ) will be the short yardage guy, they guy with all the experience, the leader, I think he can bring something but we will see, if he cannot then see ya later.

I assume you renewed your season tickets for the year

I'll be plopped in front of TV eating popcorn and watching the dreams crumble

1 of the worst football decisions ever
& Jerruh has made a lot of them
This is dumb

Loosing the Stuper Bowl...so easy a caveman could do it.

He is not signed as of this morning.

Teams study film and make note of tendencies.
Zeke drove me crazy as he would take the handoff and run along the line of scrimmage losing about 3 or 4 yards trying to square up waiting for a hole to open. By then, the defense was already in the backfield and if he was lucky he only gained about a yard passed the original line of scrimmage.
I noticed in his game as a Patriot he hit the hole immediately and picked up positive yardage.......More than likely coaching, but if he runs like he did there, he could help in the red zone, and blocking to protect Dak would be a plus.

I actually think it's a fine signing if the following 2 conditions are met. 1. He is relatively cheap 2. 1 year deal. He is at that point where he has to play hard to get his next meal.

Could be why he hasn't signed yet.
Needs to be low cost, and with some incentives in order for him to by a burger.
