Are people still hoping that we will draft a QB that we'd plan to use instead of Dak to deny Dak getting paid? Not going to happen. Even if we draft a QB mid rounds, Dak is going to get paid. This is akin to people hyping up Pollard in preseason in the hopes that the front office felt the same so they'd not work out a deal with Zeke. How'd that turn out? Lol.

I agree. But if Dak actually plays the entire season (whenever that may be) under the tag there is a chance he won't get paid. At least not by the Cowboys.

Serious question for you-

Do you consider folks like me who do not believe he's the guy to bring home a Super Bowl (although I don't think it's impossible) haters?

I don't think I'm one but curious if I fall into the hater category in your mind. I think there's a lot more people like myself than actual haters.
Labels.

Wear it with pride.

If people can't hate occasionally..

we would not even be here. At one time we hated the British and we formed a better union from it.

Hating Dak is more about who he could be but now never will be. Too much playing with the fans over his contract has been murderous for his image...his brand.

He has gone from being universally loved to being 'hated' be half or more of the fans.

His behavior lately shows us who he really is. This has been very needed becuz he has hidden alot about himself while basking in the spotlight of being our starting QB.

So now..I have seen the truth about Dak. I understand him now..Brady he isn't, Brees he isn't.

I now have to see clearly that Jerrah is the only person who has control of this situation.

Either he pays Dak or he stops that direction and chooses another one.

There are alot of QBs who could succeed in Dallas and do not require they be paid the most money in the sport.

Just go find him Jerrah.

We have waited this long anyway. We can wait a little longer.

Well.. It turned out about like how the nay sayers said it would.. Zeke was nothing special last year and he is actually an elite player unlike Dak.

I'm talking about the hopes around contract negotiations from the team's standpoint. And you need to talk to the Zeke haters about Zeke being elite, lol. If he signed a 1-year contract I'd tend to agree with them. He didn't so let's see more before the "I told you so's" start to fly. But the hope around Zeke's and Dak's contracts are the same. And each player held/holds similar leverage. We saw how one situation ended up. Not hard to see what's most likely going to happen with the other.

Sensational journalism at its finest .......nothing to see here. Keep moving....

But memo to Dak........You have some serious haters out there. They are looking for any reason, whether legit or not, to bring you down/take you out. DO NOT give them unnecessary admonition.

Dump the bum. Trade him and get a first class quarterback.

Oh I’m confident the team will be conservative and do the right thing by all the normal standards and make Dak the highest paid at his position and we will be lucky if the deal is 5 years..

Heck they may drag their feet long enough to where he is making 40 million a year.

We will see.

The Exclusive tag pretty much showed their hand I think. They should’ve welcomed the opportunity for some stupid team to offer us 2 1s but they didn’t.

They can't be so inept can they?
They just might be.......:banghead:

Not being under contract is the issue, not lack of desire to participate. Dak can't participate in offseason activities as long as he isn't under contract.

Can't? Is there some rule preventing him.? The stories suggest it is his choice.

Daks a top 12 qb either sign him or they shouldve traded him last season.

I may be wrong, but I think the "choice" is signing the tag, but until then (or until a contract is agree on an signed) he is not a member of the Dallas Cowboys. I certainly know he couldn't participate in actual practices if that were the case, but I suppose it's possible there could be some distinction if there is no physical element.

No not haters, just ignorant. We're all ignorant about certain things and this just happens to be one thing you're ignorant about.

Thank goodness for the pros like yourself to direct me to the right course.
