I think if just using the eye test. I would take Barkley as well. if he can block to protect the QB when not going out. Which I honestly dont know since I dont watch the Giants. he would be considered a complete 3 down back.

as a cowboy fan & Zeke doing nothing wrong & is a complete 3 down back. probably not, but if being honest, could see Barkley being better in the end.

Kamara, zeke, gurley, gordon, HUnt(prior), CMAC , barkley are all up there, and all bring a little something different than the others in their own ways, fournette would be too if he was ever fn healthy

no the espn guys mean now
well that means they believe the projecting will be fact so it might as well be fact right now.
you know like PE1 saying Wentz is great.
He may become great but he isnt right now. but he made his projection into fact. hey. Maybe he works for ESPN?

It's weird so many of you think this is a crazy notion

The absolute worst you could say about Barkley is he's already as good as any other back in the league and that statement pretends that his QB and OL aren't awful .

No one here honestly believes Barkley wouldn't have superior numbers to Gurley , Zeke or anyone else if you put him on those guys teams .

He's already got basically the same stats with less touches though lol

Believing he'd do WORSE with a better QB and better line makes zero sense

Barring injuries obviously, I think Barkley is gonna be the shit.

When Zeke breaks through the line I always think someone will chase him down.
When Barkley gets into the 2nd level I think he is gonna go all the way.

Dude I'm not a Giants fan

Barkley has 209 carries for 1124 and 76 catches for 630 playing with Eli and the Giants OL.

Dude is a beast . Even if you think he's not better than Gurley or Zeke therrs no way to say he's worse AND he's younger and cheaper. I'm shocked anyone here ( other than Rams or Cowboys fans ) would disagree .

I am not a Cowboys fan either but Zeke is far and away the best pass blocker out of the elites. I also think he is a better route runner and receiver but those things can be skewed by the oline, qb, and coach so that is open to discussion.

You think Zeke is the best pass catcher of the 3? Did I read that right ? Lol
