Sadly, there's probably only one team dumb enough to be willing to do both...and he's already on their roster.

The Cowboys have one of the most talented rosters in the league. And in hindsight the Cooper deal was spot on. No idea why you would call them dumb in terms of player acquisition.
You can criticize coaching, etc. if you want, but their personnel department has been pretty solid in the past 5 years or so

No practice today, I read a report in the Athletic that discussed camp through 8 practices. Their writer claims Xavier Woods at FS has been the top performer in camp thus far. Hopefully Iloka can nail down the SS spot with Heath and Wilson backup and special teams performers.
Maliek Collins in his contract year is also reportedly in beast mode.

Really hard to see how this team, who has hit at such a high % in recent drafts, took Taco #1 a couple years ago. He's pretty much showing all the same stuff he did in college... sure he shows up every once in a while, but he acts like he's stuck in mud half the time. It was evident in his college film, no idea what our scouts saw.
Not hearing good things from camp. Not terrible things, but he's pretty much confirmed his 1st round bust status. Right now he's just a guy that will occupy one of the blockers.

Agree on Taco. Dorance Armstrong is taking all of his reps. Would we be able to get a decent running back for him now?
Absolutely drives me crazy when fans say "well TJ doesn't play the same position so they took Taco and thats why the pick made sense".Quote:
It's always hard when TJ Watt was sitting there when they called Taco's name. I don't care if he wasn't a great scheme fit, everybody knew he was gonna be a player!

TJ was going to be a player regardless. Its in his make up and he's wired to be a baller. They would have found him a spot to star in. Unbelievable they passed on him and no that is not hindsight. Anyone is welcome to look up posting history for draft night to see where some of us stood with that pick.

I've heard the same. The Cowboys have been huge Woods fans since day 1... he's had to develop, but he's coming on. Haven't heard anything on Iloka... I'm personally anticipating Heath still being the starter. I just hope Bones makes enough splash plays early to get his chance. He's going to have his unfortunate moments as a young player, but the guy is a play-maker. And this defense needs a guy that can take the ball away.
Collins will no doubt give us everything this year, but he always shows up in camp. His problem is he's always got something nagging at him once the season starts... always less than 100%.

The Ticket guys brought up a great point about this during a training camp roundtable this week. The list of teams who would sign Zeke to the deal he wants is only 3-4 long to begin with. Now factor in that you'd have to sign him to a big deal AND give up assets to acquire him, and that list gets even smaller.
Sadly, there's probably only one team dumb enough to be willing to do both...and he's already on their roster.

If Zeke could take care of business he wouldn't be worried about contract money. If he could just be a normal citizen he'd be making sooooo much endorsement money it would be sickening.
But no he's untamable. Probably brain damaged and CTE and everything else.
