Twitter: Dak asking for $40 mil per Slater

[Hawkeye19]

Make him play out this year... no way is he worth Russell Wilson type money-- let alone $40 mil! Wow-- I know it's posturing and negotiating, and his agent is a factor-- but man, the optics on this are pretty poor. He looks like a greedy, selfish player-- turning down the richest contract ever offered in the history of the franchise?!

******-bag move. He better bring it at a whole other level this year-- or he will lose what moderate fan-support he has enjoyed up until this point.

Zeke at 15 Million a year. Dak at 40. Amari at 21-22.

Unless the cap is going to double in the next CBA we are going to be screwed.

 

[TNCowboy]

Zeke, Dak, and probably Cooper as well are asking to be the highest paid, and their greatest accomplishment is winning 1 wild card game.

 

[Cowfan75]

You better put up more than 3 points against scrubs if you're fishing for 40.

 

[iamliko22]

Crazy. There is no way He should be highest paid QB in league. This is crazy.

Top 5 money is already crazy money for dak.smh

You make zeke highest paid rb way before you make dak highest paid qb.

 

[aikemirv]

He is looking for back pay I guess.

 

[aikemirv]

Rather start Mike White and then have a shot at Tua, Fromm, Herbert or Eason.

Just give me Lawrence!

They know that's the limit under JG. lol

 

[atlantacowboy]

We should let him test the free agent waters and match anything he gets. Might save about 15 million per year.

 

[stilltheguru]

And then goes 1 and done in the playoffs? Then what?

Lol ya boy Romo was going none and done though

 

[Setackin]

Hell No. and I’m a Dak supporter... let him walk in FA get high comp pick.

 

[erod]

So apparently he finally gave Stephen the "counter offer." This means he wants $35 million to sign, which......no.

Prove it, Dak. If you show significant improvement, they'll give you even more than that. But right now, that's twice what you're worth.

 

[blueblood70]

Insane

Hs Agent and his EGO are way to big for this team.. for sure hes insane. to counter 30 with 40! who the flip does he think he is? OMG this is ugly.. hey FO draft a new QB HIGH in 2020 use this dude up and let him go..

 

[zrinkill]

Is Dr Evil his agent?

"I demand no less than the sum of infinity million dollars."

 

[iamliko22]

Zeke at 15 Million a year. Dak at 40. Amari at 21-22.

If this is what happens I sign two guys and dak isnt one of them.

 

[GMO415]

That’s how negotiations work. You don’t get to be where you want to be by making an initial demand LESS than what you are truly ok with.

True. He'll sign between $32-$35

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

Paying him 30 is a joke but I understand it because Wentz got 32 and has done less. 40 he is out of his damn mind he’s playing the wrong sport

Quoted for truth!

Make him play this year for peanuts, franchise tag him then let him walk..... Draft a round one qb next year and move on...
