So basically what Dallas wanted from the start.
Wednesday morning, the Cowboys and Elliott agreed to a whopping six-year, $90 million contract that includes $50 million guaranteed and an average salary of $15 million. It appears at first glance that the team did go against Jones' wishes and set the market with the extension, but there are other factors in play that could ultimately benefit the Cowboys instead of Zeke down the road. The initial total value of the contract currently sits at eight years and $103 million when combined with the remaining time on Zeke's rookie deal, and yet Dallas could realistically cut the deal short after four years and only give up $50 million.

So now who caved?
Jerry Jones did. Zeke got $50 million guaranteed. More than Gurley.
