I don't blame him for wanting a four year deal.
Sure it will, pal! Any day now! These reports always come out that things are close, Dak slobberers start dancing around, and then nothing happens. In a couple of weeks you'll go back to hiding under your rock. But you've been wrong for going on two years now, what's a few more days?

Only Jerry would drag this out to this point
Why does the team have to give in here and not Dak? They've offered to make him the richest man ever to play football.
Pretty sure it’s Dak that has been dragging this out from the very start, going back to last year.Only Jerry would drag this out to this point
Dak definitley has one heck of a lot of nerve thinking he deserves anything close to top 5 money. Dallas should of been doing what the Bears did. They brought in Foles to compete against Trubisky.The issue is getting in a position to trade him. If he doesn't sign the tender then I would just remove it and cut him.
Really annoying to not get anything for him as we should have been in a position to trade him but this is still business and you have to draw the line somewhere or we will have 3-4 years of pain with a poisoned dressing room.
We know that he was offered top 5 QB money understood to be $33 million a season and $165 over 5 years. Likely to be over $100 guaranteed money. Annually more than Wentz who is in reality a better QB and whose contract would effectively commence at the same time so it's embarrassing really.
Rather than make him the highest paid QB in the league with the CBA being a complete unknown longer term, just cut him and draft Love or Hurts in this draft and move on.
It's reiteration or regurgitation, providing no illumination, serving merely to fan the conflagration.Isn't updated old news considered the same news, or is it no news.
Or once news
they did offer him a deal. he declined and bet on himself and won.The mistake was they stupidly waited to offer him a deal. It should have happened the second the 2018 season ended before LA and Philly extended Goff and Wentz. Remove their deals of 110 in guaranteed money on 4 year extensions and this would not have happened.
You're right. Negotiation is a compromise and I don't get why this mess is about the team digging in its heals and not wanting to get the deal done any more than it is about Dak. The Cowboys started out higher than Wentz or Goff and have upped their offer to make it the richest contract in league history, either one year less or exactly the same duration as both of those deals (not sure how the first year works). Why does Dak deserve more than that? Dak evidently doesn't give a crap about the team around him, the guys he needs to win, and that's what pisses me off. What that says to me is that he's ok with losing as long as he makes his money and gets to demand more in four years instead of five. Of course I don't prefer the tag/FA scenario, but I don't think it's all the Cowboys' fault if that happens. It takes two to tango and it looks like to me that things have ended up exactly where Dak Prescott wanted them to all along. As I posted in another thread, Dak has the opportunity to be the good guy here, sign his contract, reap the bounty of being the beloved QB of the Dallas Cowboys and get paid more than anyone ever has to play football, and do it in a state with the best tax situation in the country. But evidently that's not good enough.Do they want to get a deal done or not? How has digging in their heels worked out so far? Negotiation is compromise. Dak can play on the tag and hit free agency in two years then. Do you prefer that?

I remember when that information came out. I thought, are they trying to make Dak mad? Because there is no way he would take any kind of deal like that.That is not true at all. The Cowboys initial offer was far below the Wentz and Goff deals.
so no real update same as 2019 and early 2020 no deal...lmao...we dont need updates on no new deal..please refrain from sending hollow updates MEDIA! ugh“According to ESPN NFL insider Chris Mortensen, Prescott's potential long-term deal saw "significant progress" recently. But one aspect continues to hold up the Cowboys' new contract with the 2016 NFL Draft's No. 135 overall pick in the fourth round.
"They had made significant progress, even as of 10 days ago," Mortensen said Monday afternoon on ESPN's SportsCenter with co-host Jay Harris. "The issue still seems to be terms, length of contract...
But they have closed the gap considerably and, of course, July 15 is a deadline to reach a long-term agreement. But the feeling I got — sometime after the draft, likely — is that a contract would be able to be completed by the Cowboys and Dak Prescott. But how things (go) in the draft — right now, that's the Cowboys' focus.“
I guess just more confirmation that it’s not the annual value but the years; thought I’d share. Mort also indicated that they’ll probably have it done shortly after the draft so looks like he’ll miss a few of these voluntary virtual offseason days.
