yup and the longer the wait,the more likely it is he gets traded or he signs the tag. I think the FO has drawn the line in the sand.Tomorrow will be $25 million per season.

I don't know what you do for a living, but my guess is it would be easier for your boss to replace you with someone equivalent than it would be for the Cowboys to replace Lawrence with someone equivalent. Not picking on you - that same thing would apply to me and my working situation too. NFL players have more leverage than everyday people, especially top ones, because you can't just hire a job recruiter to find candidates, hold interviews and find an equivalent replacement.
That said, I'm cool with it if the Cowboys decide not to meet Lawrence's demands. I would hate to lose him, but his contract has to fit within the overall team needs.
he is listening to bad advice from his scumbag agent.I would just like to know if D-Law is going to sit back and let this agent lose him money. Or is he the one being greedy. I don’t think any team in the league will pay him this. Maybe a good starting point for them but not going to happen. He could sit this year and lose the 20 million. You can’t get that back D-Law. Ask bell.
he has a right to be greedy..fine, but not to be a moron. The team isn't bound to him in any way. The sooner he realizes this,the better. Its all about job security in the NFL...and so if I am him, I'm firing the idiot agent and getting the surgery done now. Otherwise, no team will want him. He is killing his own career by putting it off. He seems clueless.
Yeah I was rooting for Tank, but we've got too many contracts coming up to be strong-armed now.
point is, he isn't getting what he wants...isn't happening period.Yes he is. Teams play more than half their snaps in the nickel, there's no real differentiator between DE and OLB in today's NFL.
What matters is that they both play the edge.

Not a bad idea, they're probably tired of hearing "pay the man" by a bunch of mathematically challenged fans. Those fans should have no problem with the old Booger, who did exactly that
let them. He wont be ready for week 1 either.Washington will pay him that much money
That’s why I wonder if he wouldn’t just sit out.The problem with that is if he half ***** it, why would any team think he is worth the money he wants next year?
He could care less who they keep. No player in the NFL cares about that. Brady is the only player giving a hometown discount but that was because he had no choice.If I was Jerry Jones I would definitely tell tank that we are trying to keep the core players together..he will definitely take a discount If we tell him that
Yea, but almost no player does. Saying "I want $23 million" means "I'll take $21" or whatever numbers.point is, he isn't getting what he wants...isn't happening period.
I doubt he wants that much
I mean we need Lawrence but not at the cost of not retaining other key players in the future
Pay him that much he needs 25 sacks and 110 tackles in the regular season
6 game winning sacks during the season
And 12 sacks in the playoffs
And also pulling head coach duties from time to time
yuppers it would. I think the team prefers this scenario honestly.Does this open the door On keeping Byron Jones.
