I don't think there's a big trade market for RB's in general. I think Gordon has no leverage because the Chargers will be business as usual without him but the Cowboys on the other hand without Elliott won't make the playoffs so Elliott would be wise to hold out until the Cowboys stumble as we all know time isn't on Jerry's side and this is a big year for that team as once they pay Prescott, Elliott, and Cooper they will probably have to cut lose some quality players to make room and it's hard to imagine their roster being as good going forward.

Didn't you basically say all the same stuff about Mack last year?
