I was not aware that Prescott shouldn't be paid was still a thing. Someone better tell the Joneses.

I would say. Based on looking at the history of QB’s drafted in the first round the past 10-12 years. The chance of a QB being drafted in the mid to late first, and being as good as Dak is at QB. Is less than 40%. If I remember correctly a year or two ago I looked all this up. The % was like 30%.

so a 30% chance of being as good or better than Dak. 70% chance of not being as good.

If the QB falls into the 70% Does the cap savings outweighs the decline in QB play?


And that 70% includes QB’s who are just awful. I think you have like 40% of them who were just dreadful and out of the league in a couple years from sucking so bad.


it’s a high risk proposition.
And paying dak 40 mill to not be the same guy or even worse is less risky. I’m with you. It’s nothing personal with dak. It’s just as risky to give him the money as it is to not.

If you read my post I didn't JUST compare Murray to Dak. I compared ALL the first round QBs to come into the league since Dak, including the ones from his draft, to Dak. The only one who has outperformed Dak is Mahomes and the only other one even on Dak's level is Watson. The rest either have not ascended to Dak's level yet or in the case of Paxton Lynch, Josh Rosen and Sam Darnold, probably never will. Come to think of it you could probably say the same about Goff and Wentz. Though they have had stretches where they have played better than Dak, overall Dak has been better and he was certainly the best of that group this season. Lamar Jackson had a great run last year but has regressed badly this year. The jury foreman had almost handed in the card on him but had to pull it back after the playoff meltdown and subsequent stinker season he is having now. He now ranks firmly below Dak too where I might have been inclined to rank him ahead of Dak last year.

I have been consistent in my stance that Dak has earned his deal. But he and his camp need to recognize that whatever deal he signs needs to help with the cap. Otherwise there is no point in keeping him as the team will crumble around him and he will spend the next 5 years trying to carry a team of rookies and castoffs. Basically Romo 2.0. If he doesn't have to sense to see that then I don't want him here because he will have shown himself to prioritize money and ego over team and winning. That's never really been who he is.. so I honestly don't expect it now. But the Joneses can't come with some cockamamie 80 cents on the dollar offer with basically a two year guarantee and BS signing bonus that's half what others have received. They need to come correct.. make the dollars match Dak's value then work with the agent to construct the contract in such a way that we have room to maneuver under the cap. It may be difficult .. but who cares? That's what they (Stephen and the agent) get paid to do.. so go do it.
I had to stop there. Wentz did pretty well his rookie season before he got hurt. Goff beat Dak h2h in the divisional. You’re points are good but you’re homerism is just to much when it comes to dak.

Wow. I guessed they played ping pong.
What did they play?
Football.. no? They didn’t play a divisional game against each other? I’d like to be at the table in that convo between Goff and dak. Hey Goff remember when you’re team beat my team minus me.

When the defense can't get off the field on third down, I'd imagine the Rams won the TOP battle by a wide margin.
When the offense can’t stay in the field....well yeah complimentary football is key. But to dakazoids he can do no wrong. It’s always the flip side. Dak has been the king of three n outs.

Lol. You think football is a one on one game.

Dak haters are at a loss. This 2020 team was deeply flawed when he played but had a chance thanks to him. Now that he's gone they are hopelessly awful.

But to prove Dak can't play, they go back two; three years and cherry pick bad games he had in an effort to maintain their agenda. Apparantly Dak is incapable of improving and the QB we saw since late 2018 was a mirage.

If this forum was around in the 1990's, Troy Aikman's three Super Bowls wouldn't matter. There would be people here pointing out he's not the answer since he went 7-19 his first two years in the league.
