Dak Prescott question looms large

[LetsBeReal]

I never said he wouldn't sign the franchise tag....we would be the stupid ones to offer it. The franchise tag is not just a one year prove it deal. The franchise tag makes your QB the highest cap hit in the league and hampers your ability to resign anyone else or be active in free agency. We would be idiots to franchise him.

He would only refuse to sign a contract if Jerry was low-balling him or if he was tired of the circus and wanted out of Dallas. I'm not saying either is a fact, just explaining that he will be signed to a real contract, not the franchise tag, unless he actually wants to move on, which I doubt.

franchise tag is the avg salary of top 5 at the position I’m like 99% positive.

this confirms the reason this thread should be removed as well as all the cowboys announcing that all dak Prescott jersey buyers should get a free jersey with dak jersey trade in

 

[Rogerthat12]

Part of the Jerry logic with respect to the Mike hire is to make Dak better, down to the fundamentals (he uses Montana for the drops and basic mechanics as model).

They will no doubt sign Dak to a long term deal, Jerry was doing this regardless of the coach.

 

[KJJ]

Then......name the teams that would be willing to pay dak prescott next year? Having dak on minimum money is one thing, paying him after he didn’t win anything is another thing. (The cowboys roster won’t get get better because dak collects $30million dollars.)

so, again I ask you to name me a team that is interested in dak Prescott’s services on his 2nd contract?

P.S.
there aren’t any

Don’t try and divert answer the question! What QB that will be “available” would you rather have?

 

[LetsBeReal]

Their argument is his numbers are good against bad teams and in garbage time. May be a tiny sliver of truth to that but you can't deny the big picture. And our prior head coach put a ton of pressure on the QB to win with little coaching help.

Where they're 1000% wrong is they think QBs who can win games just grow on trees and it's sooo easy to replace Dak. That's mind boggling...

yaa the “big picture”

the big picture is that he sucks and keeps getting worse. That’s the big picture

 

[JoeKing]

We will lose good players this year and lose out on others in free agency if we are paying a QB 30+ million under the franchise tag this year.
You sign him or you let him walk now.

You obviously know nothing about this team's salary cap space status. Stick to things you know about.

Way to contribute to the conversation! So good it will be the last one I ever see from you.

That list is a complete joke. If you’re looking for a laugh you got one.

If he plays for cowboys this year, he won’t last half the season.

How you can know the future with that kind of clarity. Is that YOU? Nostro?

Any team that needs a QB and there’s several would be interested in his services. He’s clearly one of the top 10 QBs in the league. Go check his numbers this season and see how many QBs had better numbers.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

We have a QB. Please stop.

 

[LetsBeReal]

McCarthy will hit the Dak-Wall as did Linehan, Garrett, and this time the when the cards fall they will not chop off another HC head for Dak's ineptness!
2020 is Daks last season as our starting QB....Bet the house!

for sure. Daks costed the United States more jobs than the government shutdown did.

I mean really it’s Jerry’s fault for tricking these clowns.......but Jerry writes the checks so if anybody doesn’t like it they could go shop at Lowe’s or Home Depot instead or vice versa.....and I will do that exact thing the second they are dumb enough to commit to dak(I don’t think they are that stupid or we wouldn’t be here though)

there is no chance this team sniffs a super bowl or champ game if dak gets a contract. No chance at all.

furthermore, they might end up regretting some things.

 

[Rockport]

Now that we can finally purge the organization for Jason Garrett's stench the biggest question that remains is what do we do with Dak?
Clearly he is not a top 5 QB, and that is ok with me, but I also cannot pay him as such even though him and his agent demand that be the case.

I also don't believe Jerry is willing to really consider an alternative. I am good with using the Franchise tag if Jerry goes out and makes another move at QB. I would not want to waste 30 million on one year if we end up signing him next off season to an even larger contract. The whole kick the can down the road with QB contracts does not seem like a prudent philosophy.

1) We bit the bullet and sign him to a Wentz type contract and move on. Do we think the Front office can find another QB? Can we find another Dak/ Minshew?

2) Franchise Dak? What does that buy us? Is it to find out if we he is the long term solution?

3) Move on from Dak right now. What options do we have?
Keenum/ Rivers/ T.Hill, Winston, Mariotta. How much do we trust our infrastructure to develop an existing qb?

Wince wasn’t a top 5 QB either and look what he got paid.

I don’t need to look at numbers. I watch the games and every week our qb is less talented than the other teams qb. Every freaking week.

The Washington Kid sound like Billy the Kid's brother. Or George Washington's son? Or Jacob Eason?

The only person you don't have listed is John Stephen Jones of Arkansas. Grandpappy Jones and dad would ink him to 30 mill right now!

 

[Rockport]

Expect a big-name veteran QB Rivers, Brees type to show up in Big D in the off-season.
No way Dak gets a Wentz type deal not even close.

Didn’t take The King Troll to pipe up in a trash Dak thread. Days going to get Wince money. Deal with it instead of crying all the time. You’re embarrassing yourself.

I bet dak is looking forward to shopping himself around to get Wentz money then......he can say just look at the numbers in Tampa bay or some other rat hole

Then you must not be watching the Cowboys. Dak was in the MVP conversation in the first half of the season. His game dropped off the final month due to a finger and shoulder injury. The last two weeks of the season he couldn’t practice.

lol......hey I’ll be honest, if I was the Jones and my son stuck out college football he is 100% getting a preseason start. I saw him a few high school games, he is a winner. Not much arm talent but he competes
