Only reason I’m interested in this story is that it’s a bunch more cap room that Jerry wasted by not extending Quennin.
Extending him could have freed up $15m this season which would have gotten us our pick of Tremaine Edmunds, Devin Lloyd, Quay Walker or Nakobe Dean
All of them are superior to Winters and could have saved us a fifth round pick.
It’s made me question the Cowboys commitment to Quennin
If they had extended him two years, through 2029, it would have given them the rest of his prime and likely cost them an additional $60-$70m. The trade would have been a 1st and a 2nd for 4.5 years of Williams.
Waiting until next season or the one before his final year will end up adding up to $100m in new money, keep him a couple of years into his decline.
What I’m afraid is going to happen is they are going let him play this year and next and then let him go, making the trade a 1st and a 2nd for a 2.5 year rental.
Clark will be gone by then so we will be back in DT purgatory.
Definfiely sounds like something our idiot front office would do.
