Rumors abound regarding Elliott and Gordon

If you've been driving yourself crazy trying to decide what to do with holdout running backs EZEKIEL ELLIOTT and MELVIN GORDON, Saturday brought you no closure. The latest rumors say negotiations are heating up between Zeke and the Cowboys, with the sides reportedly hopeful of reaching a deal this weekend -- but as of this writing no such deal had been announced. Meanwhile things seem to have headed the other way for Gordon and the Chargers, as the team has not only given Gordon's agent permission to hunt for a trade, but was also reportedly in the running to add Bills castoff LeSean McCoy right up until McCoy signed with Kansas City instead. The best advice we can offer at this point is to be sure you know whether either guy's situation has changed before you head into your draft. For now Elliott and Gordon continue to offer the league's widest range of possible 2019 outcomes, from delivering fantasy championships to sinking whole seasons. We wish you luck.
