“The #Cowboys & RB Ezekiel Elliott agree on a 6-year, $90M extension that makes him the highest-paid RB in the NFL, sources tell me and @SlaterNFL. Roughly half guaranteed. In all, it's $103M over 8 years—the 1st Cowboy to eclipse $100M in total value, the richest RB contract.”

Just because fantasy values RBs higher than gold doesn’t mean the real world NFL does, 6 year contract on a running back is legit stupid. After 3 with his same usage he’s gonna be useless and the boys will be left holding the bag <@buschcamocans>

Zeke is a pretty decent player I think he could split carries with pollard if he looks good in practice
