Miller says he's 90 percent sure he'll be No. 40

Luepke wore 44 in college so maybe he should be talking to Trent Sieg about that.

i'm 100% glad he's here...regardless of what # is on his jersey.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Anyone can see why Hunter Luepke is being so stubborn. He's 26. On the other hand, Von Miller is no spring chicken.

And Miller will probably retire next year and Luepke can just go back to 40 in 2027.

I like how Luepke said he was "fortunate" to have Miller on the team.

Who cares just get sacks, make us realize why we took you over Sam

Do you like Sam Williams?

So using some simple maths Miller is doing $5m per year it would seem. How many years does he collect on this payout, can’t be in perpetuity.

Luepke? If he was given equity, I assume that it is his as long as this chicken business exists or until Luepke sells the equity to someone else.

I wouldn't need a single sack from Miller to realize why we took him over Sam.

I do not like Sam I am, I do like green eggs and ham

Yeah, Miller talked about 2 percent being worth $100,000 a year. He apparently didn't give him that much (if that's what the deal is), but even if it's a fourth of that, $25,000 a year is better than chicken for life ... unless you are going to eat a whole bunch of chicken.

Just invite the team over for chicken every week. Pretty sure the Tylers and the rest of the OL would be tops in the pecking order.

 

[jazzcat22]

He should not chicken out on that deal.

Way to ruin it, bro. Can't have nice things at CowboysZone. Dang.

Have some respect for a future hall of famer and one one the greatest at his position you stupid fullback. Just give it to him and pick another number. Not like anybody bought your jersey.

In 1995 Deion Sanders literally bought rookie cornerback Alundis Brice a new car to get his 21 jersey.

It's just what NFL players do. It's probably 95 percent all in fun. Not that deep.

Yes equity is a piece of the business, but someone mentioned that he was in for $25k
per year.

Ridiculous, the person who wants the jersey needs to pay up otherwise he can pound sand.

Its comical that a guy that should be selling shoes for a living is holding a hall of famers number hostage.

Why should he be selling shoes?
It has already been posted he has a degree in business and finance.

Lol. I just meant he should be working a real job.
