I want to like this comment so badly.... I think he is slightly better than average and most of that is based on stats and opinion, but absolutely not elite. not just too much moiney for Dak, but WAY too much money for him.
If only we had one.
We're talking about a team that tried to trade into a position to draft Paxton Lynch, and then Connor Cook. Same GM -- and same guy who's paid like a GM but without the title -- making the decisions. Dak is the 8th-highest rated passer over his three seasons. The percentage play is to try to keep him and hope he doesn't ask for the moon.
Dak is not better than Stafford or Cousins! Both Stafford and Cousins have passed for more yards on lesser teams. Cousins has been a 4k yd passer the last 4 years. You put those QBs on Dallas and the Cowboys are better team than with Dak. If Dak gets that kind of money we can all forget about doing anything more than winning regular season games.
We seem to luck into our QBs. I don't know if it's an institutional deficiency or not. Romo & now Dak are going to keep us from taking the Philly/LA route to finding our next QB.
In his career isn't Dak in the top 5 winning QB's?
I wouldn't exactly call it luck! Having a QB that's just good enough to prevent you from searching for a true franchise QB is more of a handicap!
might be reality but I say I disagree he hasn't done more than cousins and Stafford but hes in the 25-28 range..QBs first and foremost needs to excel at their qB postion, thats throwing the football and Cousins last year everyone ripping him 30-10 and Stafford has put up 4k-5k passing season many times, those are Romo type players, no team success but they are at least showing their skill level in production from their positions..
) then if he plays super well shows more progress sign him for that 28030 next season of FT tag him.. there no rush imo regardless of market going up id do the Cousins structure that Washington did that way no dead money of they decide to cut ties..
Here's the problem with using team stats to judge individual performance: The team stat doesn't tell you how much of the success was due to the player and how much was due to the team. Trent Dilfer was once 22-4 as a starter over a 3-year period.
Both won SB. But I understand what your saying.
28 is almost a steal now. Lol. I do think if he plays out his rookie deal that he will get 30+ next year. I don’t think he gets worse. If anything with a health O-Line and Cooper and Gallup full year he will look better. Unless Moore screws the pooch.
Imagine if they pay Dak like a SB QB, then the Cowboys go 7-9, Dak throws like only 20 TDs the whole season again, but Zeke has like a thousand carries again. Zeke's going to start getting pissed off watching Dak get as much per season as he's made his whole career. And I would not blame him.
What if we don’t sign Elliott?
