Was it a mistake for the Dallas Cowboys to cut Ezekiel Elliott and draft Deuce Vaughn?

Me and my Dad talk over whether The Dallas Cowboys should've cut Zeke and drafted Deuce Vaughn instead. Thanks for watching Cowboys Kid, don't forget to subscribe!

I propose a different benchmark. Zeke’s rookie year, RBs accounted for 18 rushing TDs. Zeke 15, Alfred Morris 2, Lance Dunbar 1. If Pollard and the other RBs combine for 18 rushing TDs, that’s success. Can’t ask the rookie to match Zeke’s year one numbers when Pollard is the clear lead back.

I really liked zeke! Too bad he was so expensive. Forced them to gamble on someone new

Elliott's effort stopped being serious the day he signed his Cabo Contract. Zeke never averaged 100yds/game again... Zeke looked at his contract like a Union Worker "How little do I have to do to fulfill this contract?" .. Serious drop off in production. During the playoffs of Zeke's last year he averaged 2 yds/carry. Glad Zeke is gone.. People wanted him to be the new/Emmitt and they are 2 different people.

I guess only time will tell. Zeke had a great first year, but people get beat up…and older…and just not as good as the young guys.

Yeah

Emmitt spent 13 years in the League .. Zeke dropped off after 3. Harder hitting and more run focused in the 90's as well. Stop making excuses for Zeke.
