The March 9th deadline is fast approaching . And if no deal can be struck perhaps Tagging him is best option.
And since most feel that would mark the end of Daks career in Dallas then trading him would be best option so we at least recoup some value for him.
Otherwise he simply walks at the end of 2021 season as a Free Agent. A 3rd year Tag would cost 140% of average highest QB translating to well over 55 million for 2022 season.
Tagging and trading is looking like best option if we can’t get a deal done.
First off I do believe that tagging a third time is the average of the top 5 QB's salaries OR 140% of Prescott's salary the previous season NOT 140% of the top 5 QB's.
Next Lawrence was tagged a 2nd time and about 10 days later sign a contract so getting the 2nd tag isn't automatic that's all there is to it.
Lastly there's not an unlimited supply of franchise QB's and to think that the Cowboys will end up in the next year or two with another one is only wishful thinking. The number of QB's drafted in the 1st round, even as high as the 1st pick in the draft, that turned out to be busts in the NFL is a mile long.
