    Yeah I would be surprised if anyone trades for that. I want him on the Jets, but not at that price. I’d rather pay him a lot in offseason possibly than trade two important pieces. Granted he probably wouldn’t sign with us anyways, but who knows!

    Asking price isn’t always close to the negotiated price tho. Hell, I’d think about sending Bell away for a third rounder straight up. Just to wipe your hands clean of this

    Gonna double down on the Eagles trading for King Earl. They can keep the conditional pick. Earl straight up for the Eagles 2nd. Do it.

    You can actually. Team receiving the player has to sign off on him joining the team when he obviously wouldnt pass the physical. They even made it so you can trade players from the IR this year

    nevermind lol

    Insane how the Seahawk careers of Earl Thomas, Kam Chancellor, and Richard Sherman all came to an end due to injury in Arizona.

    Zeke has 426 rushing yards which is the most in the league (Gurley is 2nd with 338 yards) and he's averaging 5.84 yards per carry.

    It's crazy how good he is even when it's clear our passing has been below average so far this year.

    I still think he's the best in the league.

    It's without a doubt at least arguable that he's the best.

    Nobody is unquestionably better than him.

    If you look at running back stats since he was drafted, he is:

    1st in rushing yards
    1st in rushing touchdowns
    1st in rushing yards per game
    6th in yards per carry (worth mentioning there are a few players who only have around 150 attempts over that time frame, which can skew things)

    And all of that is done in only 28 games started when the other usual suspects in the top five RBs in the league are between 30-35 games played over that same time frame. And this doesn't include the stats from his insane game today.

    I can understand people being homers and picking the guy on their own team, but to say that there's no way he's in the conversation for 1st or 2nd is just plain ignorant.

    when he can do all that and catch 70 to 80 passes, then we will have that conversation

    he isn't better than Bell and he isn't better than Gurley, I'm sorry.

    I’d actually say Bell is the best in the league but I’m a bit biased. Personally I’d say Bell > Gurley > Zeke> Kamara but I think you could make a case for any of them

    Bell and Gurley are tied for first honestly, Kamara is honestly on pace to be the third best back in the league.

    Even if you consider the passes, Zeke is still right up there with Bell and Gurley as well.

    You acting like it's a fact that he's not doesn't make it true.

    Zeke is the 4th best back in the league, that even pains me to say because I can't stand the dude.

    Bell also pass blocks about as well as you could hope a RB would. He literally does it all

    I'm not saying Zeke is undoubtedly the best in the league. I'm saying that I think he and 2 or 3 other guys could each be argued as the best in the league.

    And he's also great at pass blocking as well, @Owlex
