I fully expect the team to get bullied in contract negotiations and cave at the deadline to their demands.
Same here.
It's 'what they do!'

non-exclusive tag and trade for 2 first round picks .
going 8-8 and out of the playoffs we can do with any QB.
Nobody is trading 2 first round picks.
I’d be shocked if we could get 1 first round pick.
Dak is already terrible value by just paying him alone.. Imagine paying him and giving up a 1st rounder too?
There are potential Free Agents that are as good or better that won’t require the compensation that Dak is asking for.
This is why I would love love love it if Dallas let Dak test Free Agency... Lets see what his true market value is..
The problem with that is....other teams know how much Dak wants and will no be willing to give up premium picks.
That's not actually a "trade". The Cowboys don't initiate trade talks or negotiate trade terms. It's another team making an offer to a free agent but with some restrictions.Why not?
Why not tag him with the non-exclusive and allow him and his agent to solicit for the best offer they can get?
They bring that back and you decide whether to match it or make the trade with the other team?
Robert kraft>jerry and StephenI don't either, but I think agent and client could use a dose of reality during these 'negotiations'. I'd give them by blessing to see what they could get out there.
I'm confident that they'd shut up and make a deal with the Cowboys pretty quickly.
But this organization seldom, if ever has the guts to do that.
Meanwhile, the Patriots are doing that exact thing with the greatest quarterback of all time. With no tag at all.
Guts vs no guts.

To say the Cowboys should "trade" a player indicates that they should actively seek out a trade partner and make a trade happen under negotiated terms. That's not the same thing as allowing Dak to seek out a free agent contract with another team, even if there are strings attached. Under the non-exclusive tag the Cowboys would have no ability to initiate or participate in a negotiation, and theoretically the whole process could end without Dak even leaving the team at all.How so? I'm not following you.

Are you insane? That is giving up way , way too much especially with the other holes this team has. And will probably have to fill once players age. You don't sell the farm because a few chickens aren't producing so many eggs.Would Cincy take Indy 1st, our 1st and next years 1st?
My understanding is that even though the language says 2 1st's, the teams can negotiate the compensation they want.In other words it doesn't HAVE to be two 1sts. I can't see anyone giving two firsts but if compensation is flexible there are some teams that i think would consider a first plus something.I’d be shocked if we could get 1 first round pick.
Could you imagine if the Cowboys signed Brady, then the Pats offered Dak a huge deal and the Cowboys getting back 2 first round picks and a 2nd rounder also? The picks would be later in each round, but still. At least draft day would be fun.
