Pollard isn't washed up. I'm sure Zeke's carries his first year or two with the cowboys is equal to/or greater than Pollard's career in the NFL :jbhmm:

You said the offensive line was washed. :jbhmm:

But Pollard is still able to be productive behind that same washed offensive line. :jbhmm:

Zeke got ran into the ground. He also partied/smoked/drank a lot, shortening his career. When Emmitt hit a wall around 1997....he started taking better care of himself and churned out 1200/1300 yards for several more years.

Zeke never avoided hits and didn't take care of himself year round.

But drafting him was the right choice back then given that line.

Don't forget his diet with that "chef" clogging up his arteries.

The fact that you can be ran into the ground at 27 is a reason picking him as a running back over an elite CB is dumb …Ramsey still going strong with incredible market value

Yes, but the difference is that Zeke himself is also washed with the line not being as pristine as it once was. Pollard being more capable currently can mask those offensive line faults :jbhmm:
