"Adds #Cowboys DE DeMarcus Lawrence went on for months and weeks and then we got on the phone with him and it was done in 36 hours, same with Zeke. Lot of sitting and waiting."


These quotes are a bit concerning to me, shows that they have learned nothing from the Zeke & Dlaw negotiations. Putting those negotiations off hurt the cowboys, and likely didnt save the cowboys any money in doing so.

The jones pride themselves on negotiations and cap manipulation, yet they have failed more often than not over the last few years.

He isnt stupid enough to give the media anything to work with! Since they very well could move on from Dak. The fact they havent even talked since last Sept tells me Dak and his agent are being unreasonable!

Yeah you can tell just by what he was saying. He's being as polite as possible when referring to Dak while bringing up cap concerns. He's a fool if he thinks players care about the cap.

It sounds to me like they are determined to get the Dak and Amari deals done and then wheel and deal as the Jones boys do to keep whoever is willing to cut a deal. I certainly believe Cobb and Quinn fit in that category. Maliek Collins maybe a guy we keep as well.
