It tells me that until you have an above average QB with an above average defense you shouldn't be looking to ship off the little bit of talent that you have on offense. That, and also the fact that your coaching staff is probably garbage as well along with whomever is selecting personnel every off season.

The cowboys have a top 5 defense and an above average QB.

I'm fine with paying a RB like Zeke, just not going to be the team that gives one of the most replaceble positions in football a huge deal.

The Cowboys barely won 10 games last year and Dak Prescott is a game manager at best. Not a game changer. But a game manager. There's also a huge difference between an elite RB and just a guy at "the most replaceable" position in football. When elite RB's are given a superstar QB they end up putting up even more ridiculous numbers. Faulk, Tomlinson and Peterson are prime examples of this. 

Elliot has the potential to be a hall of fame RB someday. Like Cleatwood said. Take Zeke out of Dallas and watch Prescott fold further under pressure over a 16 game season. I don't think you have to break the bank for the guy. But Jerry Jones has signed up far, FAR less talent for far more throughout his time in Dallas.
