..wow, that says lots of Dak. Threw him right under a Mack truck.

Hope John Denver writes him a new song, "Almost heaven, ...back to smokin in the trailer".

I don't know what it says if anything about Dak. Maybe he sent Gregory a text, maybe he saw some offensive pieces as bigger priorities, etc. Maybe he thought Gregory was overrated and decided to stay out of it. Who knows

Did Russell spend 6 years supporting him through his many problems and suspensions? Did Russell give him a spot in the NFL despite all those suspensions? If a few phone calls convinced Gregory to go to Denver when Jerry spent all those years standing by him then Gregory is not a good person. But the truth is those calls from Wilson had nothing to do with Gregory's decision. The decision was made when the Colorado state legislature legalized pot.

After 6 years Jerry still wanted to give him $70 million. For someone as rich as him, he is an absolute fool with his money. I don't understand it. It's because he has fools constantly giving it to him I guess.

Regarding the efforts of Russell Wilson to recruit Gregory. “That’s pretty special, especially when it’s someone like Russell Wilson. He has a busy life and a big family. He’ll drop everything, whether he’s at a children’s hospital or with his family, to FaceTime with Randy Gregory.”

that’s pretty damn weird to say imo.

If not for Jerry Jones, Gregory doesn't get this contract, and who knows where he is today? What he did tells me a bit about him as a person. I've known people that were a POS that wouldn't do something like that. For every Randy Gregory I lose a little more faith in humanity.

Randy did what was best for him. And while Jerry did help him he had to help himself as well. We have people in society who harm children and women….that’s probably something to lose faith in..

I mean common if you have to choose to play on a team with Wilson or Dak as your QB?????
After that Chiefs and Niners games last season you don't think the defensive players weren't discussing the ineptness of Dak???
They know in fact everyone knows they are playing and doing their best to support an inept QB!

“It’s big for me because my biggest thing is feeling wanted and having that support, ...
It was really stressful [more] than I thought the experience was going to be in free agency. But the staff here from top to bottom, and then obviously Russell [Wilson], the way he handled it, made this whole process that much easier.”

I thought it was going to be the obvious Wilson vs. Dak comparison. If you want a ring, Wilson is higher on the list than Dak. But no.

Instead, an entire paragraph about how he was made to feel wanted in Denver.

This was simply a totally blown negotiation by the entire org. All that was required was salesmanship, and the Joneses totally failed. We had the inside track with a *history* of support, but Jerry didn't deliver the feelz come negotiation time.

I give Jerry credit for delivering the feelz to Collins to get him to come. He gets the blame for failing to deliver to keep Randy.
