Signed by Cowboys ***Cowboys and QB Dak Prescott have agreed to new contract***

[Floatyworm]

The reality is.....

I remember that I said this thread will go at least to 120 pages like 8 months ago. We will see.

200.....We will be @ 50 in 10 minutes...and the story isn't even 30 minutes old. This thread might break the internet.

I need to see the full details with that 5th and 6th year option, the 22.5 cap hit this year will help a lot.

They arent options, they are voidable years for cap purposes. They automatically void. There is no team or player options

https://***USER-BAN-INCOMING-IN-3-2-1***/images/fball/cowboysb_logo.gif Cowboys re-sign QB Dak Prescott (4 years, $160 million; $126 million guaranteed): D Grade

The Cowboys caved, and Dak Prescott obtained everything he wanted. Not only will he be getting $126 million guaranteed; he also has a no-trade clause.

The only positive concerning this trade is that we don't have to deal with the media complaining about Prescott not being paid. The Cowboys are giving Prescott way too much money, as they clearly have not learned the lesson that other teams have endured from giving third-tier quarterbacks contracts like this. Dallas can just look at the Vikings (Kirk Cousins), Ravens (Joe Flacco) and other franchises that have destroyed their roster by dedicating too many funds to non-elite quarterbacks.

And no, Prescott is not elite. The stats may say otherwise, but most of Prescott's production has come in garbage time or against bad competition. He's had no success in the playoffs, and it's not even clear if he'll be 100 percent coming off his brutal injury. The Cowboys should have continued to franchise Prescott like the Commanders once smartly did with Cousins. Instead, they're going to have to implode their roster soon, much like the Vikings have done recently because of Cousins' contract.

We're about to witness a crap show that makes the last 25 years look like the Patriots.

Drunk hillbillies with money can't run football teams.

While I'm happy Dak remains a Cowboy, prepare for continued mediocrity because the Cowboys caved and overpaid.

 

[Dre11]

Built what?....they didnt win anything

my point, it doesnt matter if Dak was signed or not.

 

[gimmesix]

20 or so FAs to make decisions on besides Prescott; from what I'm reading here at Cowboys Zone and Bloggin The Boys (the other fan site I frequent)....the majority of fans want to move on most of the secondary and half the LB group.

Think those who want to move on from the linebacker group are being ignorant. Too many spots to fix to worry about that this year. We do need a starting corner and free safety, and I'd prefer not to re-sign the ones we had.

We should not expect the team to sign great free agents, though, because that's not how this team approaches free agency, whether it had signed Dak or not.

Yep. We have next season to do something then it's cap hell.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

Unfortunately that means nothing and the salary cap means everything.

With all the whining you do, I bet you're the life of every party you go to!

 

[Floatyworm]

10th best QB in the league for $40 million ...sounds about right.

10th????? The guy is backup material.....and now with a bum leg.....you got Jaylon Smith playing QB. You all assume he is gonna be the old Dak.

You all are gonna be in for a rude awakening....when the bill comes due....and we have no money....and still need a QB.

 

[basel90]

No reason for paying him this much but I think they caved to pressure and to the media and the PC culture .
Good for Dak and wish him well , but honestly he is not worth half that contract with his past performances . Heck , who knows how he will play after the injury .
The main issue is the cowboys will not be able to improve a very bad defense . They are stuck with overpaid overrated players who have star and jersey sales value only , including Dak 42 mil , DeMarcus Lawrence ($25 million), Amari Cooper ($20 million), ,Tyron Smith ($14 million) and Elliott ($13.7 million),
How can you fix the team with these figures .?
And will Dak be able to live up to such a monster contract that is awarded to super bowl MVPs and perennial winners ? How will he react when he falters and gets asked if he is worth the money ? He better win a super bowl wirh jerry otherwise Dak will be labeled as the biggest disappointment and will become a cautionary tale .

 

[fivetwos]

Prescotts best days are ahead of him.

The last thing im worried about is the offense.

If he signed for 35 million a year (which I suppose would have been considered a bargain), the extra 7 million is the difference between the team being any good or not?

Ridiculous.

They need to nail drafts and get better at FA or it won't matter anyway.

 

[CWR]

The only way to get out of paying all of it is to cut him after year 3. That makes it a 3 year 126 million dollar contract. 42 mill a year.

Or extend him...

 

[Hadenough]

Way to go out on a limb.......

This is going to be one amusing season. Don't go anywhere and don't you ****** cry about the defense either.

I'd settle for mediocre....the next 4 years....we are gonna be the expansion Browns. Get your bags ready.

Shouldn’t you be using google to look up your new teams message board and post there?

 

[superonyx]

I'm not so sure this is accurate.
The league would not allow a contract to be created where it auto voids and allows teams to cheat the salary cap.

 

[Swagger]

Wow and the guy isn't even an All-Pro! Hilarious
Prepare yourself for the clown show

 

[InTheZone]

hope for the best every year, can't wait to see the results.

edit: every week we get to have a thread to critique his game.

 

[khiladi]

Hey everyone....I have my very own stalker!!

I think his code name is bruh......

So instead of basically these facts, you affirm the truth of them by calling me a ‘stalker’? What does that make you when you are out here liking all these posts from guys who criticize my posts and now want to rub it in my face how Dak got a big contract, meaning make it personal. So with the attitude, do you really think you are fooling anybody?

I mean like bruh, why do you guys take me criticizing Dak so personally? Why do all of you have to act like children? Does it really hurt you that much and then you got to put on this act like it doesn’t?

I mean if it makes you feel better. Congratulations, I was wrong. The Jones are bigger buffoons at being GMs than I thought.
