So much for the "handshake deal".

 

[shabazz]

Negotiating on social media now?

Don’t do handshake deals with Micah.

All Micah had to do is look at how #4 got his record setting contract

Keep his mouth shut, show up for work, be professional and he'll get paid richly.

The blueprint is right there

Now there’s a surprise. SMH.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Not exactly breaking news.

We have all been saying that for months.

Yeah, this is all totally on Micah since the Cowboys are known for getting contracts done quickly and for the best value and never drag them out for the media clicks. Definitely.

 

[ShortRound]

Micah & Jerry deserve each other

 

[Vtwin]

True or not, why on earth would publicly say something like that?

We're going to need a lot of popcorn over the next 4-8 years.

 

[jazzcat22]

When Micah signs his contract. Fans will be jumping for joy and complaining about it at the same time.
Some will like it, some will not.

Please Lord make it stop

Yes, it was a very stupid thing for him to say. Especially the day before, he said he was not concerned. It will get worked out.

Reading news of extended contract negotiations in Dallas is like the cat glitch in The Matrix:

Deja vu.

The Cowboys approach makes no sense what so ever. You know you are going to sign him why wait.

It is a valid question worthy of the media asking Jerry Jones every single time he comes within ten feet of a microphone.

Trade bait to move up and roll the dice on a QB. It’s all falling into place. I can hope!

Because all they have to do is wait another month or two and they can pay him out of the league revenue sharing checks instead of diving into team funds or Jerrys pocket directly. I think the Cowboys have pretty much shown they are fine paying a little more in order for it to not impact their other business decisions.

If they wait until TJ Watt gets an extension, this is likely to be true. It's like Lamb waiting until after Jefferson's deal. Jefferson gets $35 million APY so Lamb gets $34 million APY. The Joneses seem to wait until someone resets the market. Now, the player's agent has the choice to wait for that as well, but it seems like Micah wants a deal done and this is more about the front office waiting.
