Current list of all QB salaries and Dak *The $25 Million Worth Merge*

Thing is, you also have to consider the timing of the other deals, not just their amounts. Cam Newton looks reasonable now but if he was up next and at the table with his accomplishments as well as an MVP in his pocket, he would probably vault the right near the top. You have to at least think Dak is going to go in about where Smith is.
Honestly I am ok if Jerry wants to give Dak $20, $30, $50 million a year, whatever, just please make the contract easy to escape from.

Well the upside to resigning Dak would be that u know what you have. There is always inherent risk with a new Qb. If the management can live with his limitations at least dont pay top 10 money for bottom 10 performance. The numbers simply don’t lie.
 
Exactly.....I dont understand this wanting to overpay Dak madness

There Dak-Zoids if it was up to them they would give Dak Rodgers type monies.....who cares if our Cap goes south...all they want is Dak to continue starting at QB the rest they couldn't give 2 cents for....go figure...o_O
 
Personally I would cut Dak and get a 5 million QB with the same production

Dak is not worth anywhere near 20 mil a year...

Sign a Colt McCoy, CJ Beathard, AJ Mcaron for $4 million and use the rest of that money on what really matters....our defense

This was a dumb post in the other thread where you wrote it and it's dumb here, too.

Your 'Mr. Accurate' list:

A.J. McCarron - He's started exactly three games in his career and has thrown a total of 133 passes in the NFL in FOUR YEARS! 2017 - 7/14, 50%

Colt McCoy - His only season as a regular starter (13 games), he was 57%, 14 TDs, 11 Ints, followed the next year by 52%

CJ Beathard - He's a career 57% passer. 8 TDs and 7 Ints this year alone.

Again, not a single QB making under $20m/year that isn't on their rookie deal that I'd take over Dak.
 
The market needs to come down.

The old vets taking the discounts and the young QB's on their rookie contracts are the guys who are having the most success.
That would be great, but the cap keeps going up so the most important position will keep going up.

It's true that most successful teams have cheap QBs. Tough nut to crack for sure.

Good for you, im glad you like to overpay average quarterbacks I guess

Im not signing a QB ranked 25th 20 mill a year.....matter of fact i wouldnt sign him at all, i would get a better quarterback

Numbers don't lie but can improve. I have no issue saying there are things Dak must continue to work on and improve on but I also know players can improve through hard work.
 
While Dak Prescott is just two years into his four-year rookie contract, the Dallas Cowboys are already discussing how much his next deal will be worth.

"It's going to be as he deserves," executive vice president Stephen Jones said Wednesday, per Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk. "He was a fourth-round pick. No one deserves to get paid fairly more than he does."

Jones also noted the market could dictate a high salary.

"We all see what some of the other guys are who aren't Aaron Rodgers, who aren’t Matt Ryan [are getting paid]," he added. "He’s going to do well. We certainly know that’s going to happen. We’ve got that planned in our budgeting for the salary cap."

They can improve to the players physical and mental limit.

It was discouraging to see Dak’s regression last year and currently he’s holding serve with his play.

He’s just inconsistent at this point in time.

I don't think Dak is physically limited or mentally limited. I think he was a guy who entered the NFL that had much to learn and still does. While some do not give him much credit for helping the Cowboys to post season 2 out of his first 3 years in the league both being NFC East championships, I do. Not saying he has carried the team by any means but I watched other QB like Weeden and Cassell fall apart yet Dak even after making mistakes shows the ability to shake it off and go right back out there and make plays to help his team. This past game yes he made some costly mistakes he also kept his head in the game and turned in a great 4th qrt with 3 TD passes. I have never once claimed he was the next Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees but he sure as hell is not a Tim Tebow as some here love to claim.
 
Rivers, Brady, Big Ben are the rare examples of qb's doing things right so teams can still build championship calibre teams. Outside of that guys are way overpaid or on rook deals.
 
IMO there are only 3-4 QBs in the top 10 that I wouldn't regret paying that kind of money. I'm also fairly confident some of these teams regret their decision.
 
I see 20mil as Dak per year over 5 years guarantee half and offer some incentives to get to 25mil, let him earn the extra..i can live with this..

Yeah. Once a star QB has pocketed a couple of huge contracts, it's not a bad move to take less in that 3rd or 4th deal to help build a team around them
Those guys have all made way over 150 mil already and took the max that they could get on their first big deals

what store does that come from? i'd love that idea, i just don't know how you pull that off. it won't be by draft and FA looks not much better. can you lay out a plan?
