Why is Jerry Jones being so disingenuous about Elliot's hold out?
The Cowboys made their own bed with this Ezekiel Elliot hold out situation. Market-setting contract negotiations come with the territory when you draft a running back No. 4 overall — and then proceed to build your entire team around that player.
Elliot's fifth-year player option will pay him less than $4M in cash this season, and if all he wants is more than the 4-year, $60M deal the Rams gave Todd Gurley, what's taking Jerry and the Cowboys so long?
A fresh Zeke would be great come playoff time — but the Cowboys definitely need their best player if they're getting there.
