Master List: Confirmed Notable Players Released and Available

[MrEpsYtown]

A lot of interesting names out there. I would think it would be smart of them to sign quick before free agency opens like Robert Woods did.  

 

 

[ChevyVanMiller]

Zeke about to hit the open market. RBs available continues to grow. I wonder if Motor will get an offer at this point?

No to Zeke.

[Bangarang]

He’s washed

[Nephilim17]

He signed a six-year, $90 million contract in 2019.

 

We won't see a back get that kind of money again for a long, long time.

[boyst]

he'd be a good pairing to CMC in San Fran

[Thrivefourfive]

He didn’t do his position any favors for being such a high profile player with a World of talent hit the wall so hard after year three. Not good for RBs that deserve more $$

 

Edit: he had more good years than I thought

Would rather get Jamal Williams.

No interest here.

Would rather see Cook given a shot, for the money.

True.  But, to Zeke's defense the Cowboys ran him very, very hard.

[loyal2dagame]

Nope.  Damaged goods

He should. From us. Something like 8/3. I think that he won't get much more than that.

[BuffaloBaumer]

I can honestly think of nothing worse. That guy just makes me sick looking at him. No more eating for that ego...

[TwistofFate]

No thanks

Zeke played it perfectly. He was being used and abused and wanted to get paid before the "wall" issue crept up. RBs, get discarded, for the most part after being used up. Zeke was proactive in this regard. He played Jerry Jones brilliantly. Good for him.

Edit: the fact that he got "I'm the smartest GM" Jerry to pay him, makes it even better in my view. Jerry should have consulted his old "buddy" Jimmy Johnson on this. Jimmy would have laughed at Jerry for even thinking of paying Zeke.

Good call, Zeke did make sure he got paid for the pounding he was taking.

I should hope so.  One must be presentable for these meetings with potential teams. 
 

[BearNorth]

Does make you wonder about the Giants franchise tagging Saquon at 10MM +, seems like a lot given his injury history and the shelf life of RB's.

Yes, he was the center piece of that offense. And he’s a very physical back. He should’ve been an all time great. His size and speed and cro magnon toughness was unique. My assumption is he wasn’t obsessed with staying in shape in the off season.
