Micah Parsons was eligible for a contract extension last offseason, but he and the Dallas Cowboys couldn’t come to an agreement, and Parsons sat back and did not draw much attention. We saw them get the deals done with Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, waiting until the last possible moment to do so, in turn made them pay way to much for Dak, and probably more than they wanted to for Lamb at the time.

Here we go again with the front office of the Dallas Cowboys waiting forever to pay Micah. and doing so made his price even higher. Myles Garrett signed on Sunday with the Cleveland Browns, the biggest non-QB money in the history of the league. Only problem for Dallas: The highest-paid defensive end dollar figure has risen substantially in the last calendar year. Last summer, San Francisco’s Nick Bosa earned $34 million per year. Maybe the Cowboys could’ve signed Parsons for a few million more. Now, Maxx Crosby reset the market last week before Garrett leapfrogged him. Garrett’s deal is expected to pay him $40 million per year, and it has a record $123.5 million guaranteed.

The way this front office operates is so frustrating. Time and time again, they cost themselves money, and they seem not to even care, yet they won’t get deals done and sign outside free agents at other needy spots. This is typical Jones. He allows other players to set the market and drive the value up for his players. Therefore, Jones has to pay more money, which detracts from the salary cap for other players. Not did they let the price for their best defender go through the roof, they cleared all that cap space and can’t even resign any of their other guys that have been homegrown. The Cowboys lost Jourdan Lewis and Chauncey Golston, two big-time players, for the defense a year ago, and they have only signed former Jets DT Solomon Thomas has agreed to a two-year deal worth up to $8M.

This falls back on Stephen. Man, this falls back on your team. You are guarding team money instead of just using the cap funds to allow the coaching staff to maximize their team play. Your staff and coaches are keeping up with need and damn sure on the best for the Cowboys.

They are on top of their jobs.

That cap is not the franchises income. It is your team's life line. Your stars are the roster's live line. Don't dramatize spending, build one's team as strong as it can be. This is sports not protection of Holywood.

This signing is important to this team. Get it done...do YOUR job. Don't bast in the drama. Fix the damn team. If you need drama, take the family to a movie.

Your dragging feet cost that team two good players already!

GO COWBOYS!
 
This is what the Jones clan does. Last year we all saw what happened. Rinse and repeat this year. Literally no other team would do business this way.

By waiting then having to overpay at the last minute is only hurting the team. For some reason these idiots can't figure that out.
 
Oh boy, the 74th thread stating the exact same thing.
Oh boy, another that keeps up with a 30 year old calendars with much more start of free agency activity by the Cowboys and some good Stephen contracts as well.

Recognize the reality of actual changes. Put the calendar away or wipe the tears away with that decrepid calendar.

If you don't care about real changes...go back to sleep. Chunk at your TV or just shut up. Read somewhere else then.

Description of procedure and it's change have to remain current. So does focus going on.

I'm not going to spend my day listening only to crap being tossed around as also an excuse to be a 'valid' fan.

This a home run:
The Dallas Cowboys kicked off NFL free agency by focusing on retaining several key players, including special teams ace KaVontae Turpin. Turpin signed a deal to make him the highest-paid return specialist in the league, with hope from Cowboys Nation that he could see an increased role on the offensive side of the ball.

Verderame gave the move an "A" grade, highlighting Turpin's value to the team.

On the punter, Stephen out bid another team to sign him.

Affect signing Parsons?

As it currently stands, the Cowboys have reached agreements with 11 players: eight returning players and three external free agents.

Williams and Jones signed one-year contracts, while Thomas signed a two-year deal. This indicates the Cowboys' strategy of adding depth in key areas without exceeding their budget. Dallas has more so emphasized retaining its own most notably defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, wide receiver KaVontae Turpin, and safety Markquese Bell.

According to Spotrac, following these initial slate of moves, the Cowboys currently hold the seventh-highest cap space in the NFL, with $52.613 million available after the initial free agency moves.

Parsons is an elite pass rusher but I’d honestly rather have the 3 guys in OP’s post more. Myles, Bosa, Crosby. They are all great against the run too. But yeah, looks like our Jones Boys are headed to another ‘highest paid at his position’ contract. No rush, it’s only 1/3 your cap space.

That will get done. Agreed, today's cap needs to be worked with.

Top offensive and defensive producers and QB are important and expensive today. That is solid although. Team strengths are growing from just a ball park observation.

At the same time, a defensive tackle was signed for 2 years. Run defense direction and depth.

Jerry is thinking so what?
there is a cap ceiling. so it protects the spending for them.
they are going cheaper with JAGs and garbage in FA to fill the 53.
they have 10 picks, so they fill good about filling the roster with more low round crap
then fill in gaps with UDFA and late late late FA at training camp.

and they will give whatever contract to micah....again, there is a cap. his investment is offset by jerseys he is projecting to sell.

its always transactional with Jones boys...championship and competitiveness is secondary
 
Say you were drafted out of college and right out of the gate were guaranteed enough money to live very comfortably and enough money that most of us regular folk could turn into life long comfort and security. You then developed into an elite player at your position.

The time then comes to begin to think about your next contract. You know how things work. You know the next guy makes more than the last guy. You also know that there a couple comparables who are also up for a new deal.

What are you going to do? Are you going to just go ahead and agree to a contract earlier then you have to and before the other guys get paid, or are you going to maximize your opportunity and sit back and let the other guys go first?

I am in no way defending Jerry, but how can we know the failure to sign any of these guys "early" is all on Jerry?

Every perceived negative is Jerry's fault alone. Every perceived positive is Will Mclays credit alone.

This is what a large portion of the fannase has devolved into.

Please expound on what credit Jerry is missing out on.

Jerry is clearly a business genius who has made this franchise financially bulletproof. No one can doubt that. But his football acumen is clearly the opposite.

There is not another team in the NFL who would hire Jerry as their GM. No other owner in the NFL would tolerate his three decades of winning 4 wild card games. Zero would tolerate it besides himself.

I don’t “hate” Jerry Jones. But I am beyond tired of the results we get from him come playoff time. If we ever by some miracle get even a divisional playoff win under Jerry, maybe he will deserve a Pat on the back. But having three decades of playoff futility….what “credit” does he deserve?

dude they're not waiting on purpose MP and his agents are part of the slow process and the target was 36 - 40 the whole time, that hast changed, unless MP lied about not needed to reset the market.

ironic how they can get OSA done quick and 9 other signings the last 2 days , and a great deal for both sides, this isn't always about the jones family, the agreement likely isn't in agreement with MPS take less philosophy and holding things up.

the irony is everyone blaming the jones family all the time and it's not always them. Lamb was 100% on Lamb and his agent wanting to wait for Jefferson or chase to sign, facts.. Diggs amongst other easy quiet deals..

ask yourself why chase has yet to sign and Higgins 2 years in row on FT, Aiyuk held out last year and not the only one late to sign, NYG lost SB over a few millions, not always the owner the issue, players and agents muck stuff up..



just few examples. but don't say you know better because unless you are privy to the phone calls and IN meetings, you don't know anything...

Genuine question, if you're Micah Parsons, why the hell would you sign for the Dallas Cowboys?
because there's 32 teams and maybe 4 have true shot at a SB, Parity that why..

you're trying to tell me every superstar should end up on four teams? literally TJ watt zero playoff wins , Joey Bosa no signature playoff wins, Garett nothing to show ,

somehow you all are all clueless to the fact that this is just how sports are, you take te money and hope for the best , you rarely control where you play and don't have many options to get on a guaranteed winner.
.
anything else i can help you with?

it's clear many of you are clueless because over the last 30 years,

history says Nearly ALL our stars have stayed here, not one new deal ,but multiples, these players signing new deals, if the reality is, its not worth it, they keep doing it.. ironic Huh? , they should turn down the money and force their way out but that hardly ever happens anywhere.

You don't have a real care if Jerry or the real status of his team.

I don't care as figuring out his implied, convenient description that you exhibit, I care about direction of actions. This isn't a German operation hiding V-1 rocket production, U-boat operations, or impenetrable concrete bunkers hiding special operations.

This is football and that requires repetitive elements that gives the coaching staff enough freedoms to allow their leadership to direct their teams.

Jerry does not limit his franchise from freedom to take and hold their own directions.

I follow directions of his team and stay current upon their techniques and ability to adjust to game conditions.

American pilots in Viet Nam, under Lyndon Johnson, were not allowed to buy law attack enemy launch sites such as Cambodia, where Chinese soldiers would attack from.

During Viet Nam, jets would avoid surface to air and circle back around and take out the tracking facility and then the launch vehicle. When pilots taught this to new pilots after ending the war in 1975 they taught this. Congress and Johnson started to throw them in prison.

That very technique was used in Dessert Storm and gave us air supperioty. So?

Air supperioty in football depending upon stationary launch or mobile launch. Taking out both defeated the Germans.

Mobility in passing or stationary quarterbacks work the same for dominance. I watch for team characteristics in the part of football.

The Army has long followed a break down of communicating actions and duties on the basis of task, conditions, and standards. Jerry learned these aspects as well as evaluations with after action analysis and reports.

No, Jerry has learned applications of his job well. His franchise is continually changing and getting better on the carpet. That still is called sports progress and footballl.

If one does not follow franchise progress, he ends up just a grumbling soldier and not a fan enjoying more pleasure than limited view and discussion only to a 30 year calendar.

I respect them and I their owner. I'll continue to follow attention to detail as I did in service!
