Only if judged by sacks.D-Law hasn’t played up to his contract either. Not even close.

How is it coming out of Jerry's pocket? I don't understand.LOL I have never said I liked that contract Cooper got. I even mentioned it in another thread. But like you said, if it is structured properly, we have an out. And Cooper's is. That 60 million in guarantees is only coming out of Jerry's pocket.
I also don't think Cooper ghosts or just doesn't show up from time to time. I just think people expect too much from him. Or think too highly of him. He's not a hall of fame WR. In my youth I played WR and had absolutely great games and crap games. I didn't purposely take a week off. It happens. A WR doesn't always have control. The defense and the quarterback's time in the pocket plays a huge role.
Esp. since he refused to get his needed surgury for so long. Mor on.D-Law hasn’t played up to his contract either. Not even close.

OK. Since that's money that has to be paid no matter what due to the salary cap minimum, I just don't agree that it comes out of Jerry's pocket. Pay comes out of the monstrous revenue stream.Ok, this is how I see it. Both the Zeke and Amari contracts give the Cowboys an out after two years. They're not terrible for the Cowboys long term. But when you add in guaranteed money Jerry takes a beating if Dallas does decide to part ways after 2 years. Cooper 60 mil guaranteed and Elliott 50 mil guaranteed. That's a tough pill to swallow for two years. As fans we don't have to worry about that. That's on Jerry.

Depends on what sort of fan a person chooses to be. If a person is interested in the day to day details and in team building there's nothing wrong w/ being concerned about where the allotted moneys are spent. If one prefers to just be a fan and just root to win and nothing else, that is also fine.Ok. I'm with you on that. But that's something that he needs to be concerned about, not us.

Loss of money(cap room) always affects the team, though.What I mean is, if the extra loss in money is not affecting the team much, I don't care. In other words, Amari is guaranteed 60 Mil. His cap hit is 12 and 22 the next two years then 6 if he's cut. That's the part I care about.
Dallas wants him but dragging their feet. Gonna lose him to Titans.Why hasn't he signed it yet?
