“Here's the news Dallas has wanted: Talks between the Cowboys and RB Ezekiel Elliott are intensifying, with both sides aiming to wrap up a new deal this weekend, league sources tell ESPN.”
@keyes53ljh that’s awesome. who’d you get in the first?
@joshkindler Hopkins
Im out, notifications are off done with this chat
Cmc will have a small regression but he is still a top 4.
@keyes53ljh your team looking nice lol
Bye Moby we may or may not miss youuu
Dark mode has made sleeper so much better
as a zeke and pollard owner, a small part of me was hoping zeke would be traded. but this is good too.
But Pollard is not Zeke...
I own both and I'm not delusional enough to think Pollard could do what Zeke does
yes but then i get an extra RB2 in pollard plus whatever zeke does on his new team
but again, this isn’t too bad lol
He was my first round 1.5 pick. Sweating like hell last week's
@moby1kanob lol you cannot change what the coaches actually said and replace it with what you thought it meant just to fit your narrative... he was on the field nearly every play but he didn’t touch the ball every down. Do you not understand how he could be removed from the field so he would get more rest and not be out there taking unnecessary work? But he could still very well get the same amount of touches.
I just don't think you can get the return on trading a guy like Zeke. You'd be selling him at a discount bc no one is calling for him
no i mean the cowboys traded him in real life
@ktetrault I agree that cmc could just be on the field less and it's easy to say he's not gonna get the same work until he's on the field and makes big plays every time he touches the ball and the coaches are helpless but to play him to succeed
There is not an rb on the team that is even a quarter of what cmc is
@joshkindler I mean real life too. There isn't a huge market for rbs rn and they couldn't get what Zeke is actually worth in a trade
@wakeupjacob true. but as a giants fan i’m not too worried abt the cowboys getting a good deal lol. just my fantasy team. you’re right tho, the chances of it happening were very slim
I hope Daniel Jones takes over man. Eli is cemented in history but I think shurmer needs to get Daniel Jones in and start the next phase. Big Daniel Jones truther here
@wakeupjacob completely agree. no reason to try to win now (in fact, it’s better if we don’t), might as well give jones as much in game experience as possible and have eli tutor and mentor him along the way
I just think at this stage Daniel Jones can do anything Eli can and he can also extend plays with his legs. Figure out what you need to do once you get the new guy in. I took him in my dynasty rookie draft
@wakeupjacob 100%. he’s looked real good in the preseason too. excited abt his future
