Ask not what a free agent running back can do for you, but what you can do for them

Saying there’s no value in running backs was always nonsense, but because bad teams think a ground game is going to make their garbage quarterback and shoddy offensive line redeemable, the stereotype gets furthered. So this offseason when some NFC South team signs Derrick Henry or Josh Jacobs or Saq...

So much for Saquon Barkley being a 'Giant for life' [Update]

It’s official. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the New York Giants will not give running back Saquon Barkley the franchise tag. He will hit the open market for the first time since entering the league in 2018. ...

Will Ezekiel Elliott or Dalvin Cook have a bigger impact? | Agree to Disagree

Aaron Rodgers and the familiar NFL faces in new places

After silly season, and training camps around the country are well underway, most of the big moves of the NFL year have already taken place. Those who hoped for greener pastures found what they believe is an upgrade from their last situation, despite no proof to the contrary, yet. Some of the bigges...

Bill Belichick is up to his same old tricks, and they may not be good enough anymore

The Ezekiel Elliott signing was a solid move by Bill Belichick. Elliott may no longer be the athlete who cleared opposing defenders the way that he cleared high hurdles as a high school track and field star, but he is still a football player who can contribute to a winning team. Any extra depth is w...

10 NFL teams everyone thinks will be good this season, but won't be

Every team had a great offseason. All those gaping, even-the-blind-can-see problems your favorite team had no longer exist. Here’s where a path to greatness starts. Of course for most, that won’t be true. The heavy hitters didn’t go away and until your favorite players get hit in the mouth, all the ...

Would signing Dalvin Cook put the New York Jets over the top?

Free agent running back Dalvin Cook is still on the open market as we enter the month of August. When he was released in June by the Minnesota Vikings, rumors were floating all over the internet about where he could end up, and still, nothing has come to fruition. Now it’s been reported that he’s se...

Ezekiel Elliott could end up back in Big D

The Dallas Cowboys finally parted ways with Ezekiel Elliott at the beginning of the offseason, and he’s sitting on the open market available for any team in need of a veteran running back. Halfway through June, the free agent market dried up quickly on Elliott. There have been whispers about a poten...

Dalvin Cook cut a reminder that the NFL treats RBs like Amazon warehouse workers

Being a running back is a great way to get recruited. In high school, RBs frequently have the ball in their hands, and it doesn’t take much for their talent to be recognized. Little Johnny fakes out two linebackers, runs over a safety, and then glides into not only the end zone, but also a college s...

Micah Parsons is about as clueless as they come

The Dallas Cowboys might have another star player that lacks self-awareness in the same sense that Ezekiel Elliott did early in his career. Outspoken pass rusher Micah Parson has opened his mouth again (on Twitter) and posted a tweet exhibiting how clueless some athletes can be. Coming off the Desha...

Dallas Cowboys must sign Dalvin Cook if Minnesota releases him

The Dallas Cowboys have a glaring hole in their backfield, and the solution to filling it may have been discovered. News broke over the weekend that the Minnesota Vikings are set to release running back Dalvin Cook on June 1, making the four-time Pro Bowler a free agent. After cutting ties with form...

How every NFL team should draft, but won't because GMs are dumb

The NFL Draft is arguably the second-biggest event on the league calendar behind the Super Bowl. Every team participates and shapes its roster for the next season. And every franchise will go into the month of May thinking it has made the right moves to get closer to a championship. But of course, o...

A team should reach for Bijan Robinson in the NFL Draft

No position in the NFL has more turnover than running back. Most teams have switched to a by-committee approach rather than one superstar. And even the 49ers have suitable backups to Christian McCaffrey. With the NFL Draft two weeks away, former Texas standout Bijan Robinson will be the first tailba...

Free to a good home: Running back, heavily used. Fair condition

Former Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is still a man without a football home. There had been speculation about where Elliott could land, but he’s still searching for that spot. Elliott’s frustrations are reportedly mounting with each passing day of free agency. Similar to common sense, ...

Dallas tags Tony Pollard — so where does that leave Ezekiel Elliott?

In just a couple of years, Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard has gone from being a scrappy backup to the team’s most dangerous weapon out of the backfield. The 2019 fourth-round draft pick became Dallas’ primary rusher in most people’s eyes during the ‘22 campaign. The Cowboys would like to k...

The rest of the world is finally ready to admit that Dallas' Zeke Elliott is running on fumes

Bob Sturm of The Athletic explains in a recent piece that scouts are whispering that Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is done — without actually saying it. “He has very little left in his legs, and the word is out.” So, in other words, scouts are noticing what most of the football world h...

Hey, Jerry Jones, the Eagles' and Rams’ Super Bowl formulas are very different

Jerry Jones is so far into his own head that he’s paralyzed by fear (or the effects of old age). In one of Jones’ many rambling interviews where he talks Dallas football, the Cowboys owner said it’s “pretty impressive” that the L.A. Rams and Philadelphia Eagles have made the Super Bowl after going a...

Eli Manning is right, the Giants should sign Daniel Jones long term

There’s a clear ceiling on Daniel Jones as an NFL quarterback, and even though he hasn’t bumped his head against it quite yet, that day is rapidly approaching under new coach Brian Daboll. Now, the Giants have to make a decision on whether to give Jones a contract this offseason, and New York fan fa...
