btw, that's not a HOF, SB MVP contract. its NFL top 10 QB contract. in two years, that contract value will not be in top 10....its the way the NFL works. what the fans put value on is different than what the market does.
now, onto more important less spiteful stuff....I agree that we haven't invested draft capital into the QB position. it seemed we had gotten lucky at times. we meandered for a few years, signed a few older FAs after Aikman and lucked into Romo. seemingly we Lucked into Dak, but lately that shine has been off.
secondly, how many teams do exactly deploy that strategy? drafting a QB in first three rounds every three years?
How many teams have intense compeition at QB positions? so what you describe is not reality of NFL. it doesn't happen regularly....
this doesn't mean I am opposed to drafting a QB in first three rounds next year.
and what you basically described is failure of a GM. we can make it about Dak, but Dak will go as did Romo. and then what? its been the same story with this team for 25+ years. that falls on the GM. for years folks on this board complained about Romo and there were Romo supporters and Romo Haters and then it turned into Dak supporters and Dak haters. and what next?
as long as Jerry is the GM, this is as good as this team will be. every 4 or 5 years, make a run. seem like the team. then falter, and be one and done or maybe at most win a playoff game.. its the same cycle over and over and over and over and over again.
