Wonder what he would cost. Seems his style would compliment AK well. Obviously, I'd only be interested if he's cheap.

He's not good, fat, and we don't need another nose bull ring

That was always such a stupid contract. When will teams learn?

I say that after we just pushed a lot of AK money down the line

Do you have to mention it in every post?

We get it. You watch the cap.

Perhaps.

He has scored 22 rushing TDs the last 2 seasons, so he can still get tough yards. Those tough yards seem to be where we've struggled

He'll probably resign with the cowboys for a lesser deal. He knows his days as a elite runner are over, but he will probably want to remain a cowboy and chase a title with them. Besides, Dak is his boy anyways.

Maybe it was a stupid contract, but Zeke got paid and that's a star players main objective. To get paid while they still have it, Zeke was performing really well in his initial years with the cowboys, and just wanted to get set for the rest of his life and he managed to do that. So, good for him, as a star player you realize you only have so long to get paid before your star power starts to fade, and then your chance at big money is gone. So, I can't knock any of these guys for wanting that, Kamara won't get paid like he did with the Saints anymore, he's fading already, but he accomplished it and that's all that matters.

I said why do teams keep making these stupid mistakes.

I understand why Zeke agreed to this deal. He got overpaid by an incredible amount.

I get that your looking at it from the teams perspective, but as a former athlete myself, I'm looking at it from the players perspective, and the goal is to get paid while you still have it and can command it. These teams will be fine, they'll figure out the cap like they do every year, but as a player you only have 1 shot.

No, more like PFF got a SFP subscription


It would be in their best interest. Dude knows everything about everything. The other day he rattled off the chiefs EXACT cap situation for the two years before mahomes got there. He knew it off the top of his head because he’s just good like that.

We should be humbled to be in his presence and appreciative that he doesn’t charge us to read his posts

I really like charbonnet. I'm just scared of rookie rb protection for our new high dollar investment in carr

What is this boards deal with “should we’ing” with aging running backs with a ton of mileage? It’s a young man’s position and you can get young guys with fresh legs for much leas than what you’d have to pay these vets that are a year away or so from falling off a cliff.

He's 27, and I'm talking like 3-4 million a year. I wanted him for 2 reasons: he can move the sticks/score in short yardage, and he can block. Our offense will be carr and the WRs more than a rb
