I mean you make a claim like that it should be easy to find. I personally can’t find it. I think @Kaiser knows it’s a lie because that’s not something Aikman would do. Doesn’t take a google search to know that. He’s hard on Jerry and this organization but to call our a fellow quarterback like that is breaking a code among them. M

I know what he is referring to... it was actually during a broadcast. But, it was worded in a PC way. Was basically talking about Dallas needing to beat teams over .500 and that a lot of the yards came form sub par teams. But, I don't exactly recall how he worded it.

Although I don't necessarily agree, consider that non-quarterbacks such as LT Laremy Tunsil and CB Jalen Ramsey were dealt last year in packages that included two first-rounders as the article points out.......

"Sign Dak Prescott: Crazy, right? Let's play it out. If the Dallas Cowboys continue to drag their feet on a long-term extension for their two-time Pro Bowler, they'll certainly place the franchise tag on him in the coming weeks. And if they put the non-exclusive tag on Prescott — unlikely, yes, if they go to the trouble of franchising him — the Chargers would be wise to start scheming. Prescott, 26, has further upside despite throwing for 4,902 yards and 30 TDs in 2019. There are a ton of Cowboys fans in Southern California (and everywhere), which is why Dallas holds training camp there annually — keeping Chargers Prescott jerseys in inventory might be tough."

They will trade up themselves and get a young QB through the draft. If we can’t come to a agreement with Dak he will be tagged and no one will want to give up the picks and have to pay him. We will sign him.

Again you are singing the same song that Prescott has publicly said the words are wrong. Prescott has said he declined their last offer BECAUSE of the LENGTH of the contract not the AMOUNT! Second, it doesn't matter what you, me or any fan thinks. Jerry, Stephen, McCarthy and Nussmeier have all said that Prescott is their QB and they are the ONLY ones this really matter to.
.

i cant give less fs about what Dak and his agent wants, we all know the truth on what type of QB he is and what he should take.. at ;east Zeke who was condemned for holding out, ripped for wanting to be the highest paid took a very team friendly deal in backend years that gave the FO flexibility and for what 2.5 times less then dak..pshhh due wants another deal in 4 years and its holding up a deal, how about take the 32 now smash records win a sb and ask jerry to tear it up and get a new one.. jerry will do this, he has before but Dak doesnt trust himself to do all those things and wants to get paid big now and 4 years from now without proving he is close to a top 5 guy for elite money..pshh..

dude and his agents living in lala land..

Maybe, but you have to remember how hard Parcells was on his QB's. He even has his set of rules for his QB's. Even Wentz is rated way about Dak. The Cowboys have shopped for their QB's in the bargain basement bin for years and it hasn't gotten them back to a SB in 25 years. The Cowboy's FO doesn't seem to learn from their mistakes.

Romo and Dak may have came at a bargain by no means were they bargain basement players.

Well depending how it’s worded I can confirm or deny if that’s what he said. What he said wasn’t nearly as harsh as what’s posted that he said.

Results matter in big games with the best teams at crucial times. In both cases Romo and Dak come up short. No championship games or no Super Bowls for 25 years speak volumes about those two players and how the FO picked them. Jerry like to think he's a genius and can do it on the cheap. He can't as results show in spades.

Jerry tried to trade up to the first round for one of those can't-miss QBs in 2016, but Denver beat him to the punch. That QB was Paxton Lynch.

That's not trying to win on the cheap. That's making a poor decision and being bailed out by another team. Three rounds later he settled for Dak.

As for Romo, he was signed after Jerry had made his big move for Quincy Carter. They lucked out that Romo was any good at all.

It's not that the Cowboys haven't tried to make moves for QBs. It's that they suck at doing it.

It isn’t there fault. Blame your GM/coach. Romo and Dak would have rings if they played for different teams.

Dude..was Lynch a top 5 QB? Nope. You either get one of the best in a given year or you're wasting your time.

KB1122 · Feb 18, 2020

You know, when the decision is just Dak or no Dak, I could accept either way. although I lean against. When it becomes Dak or 2 first round picks, I start thinking sign me up.

Posters on the official Cowboys message board were upset we didn't get Lynch though. One of them harped on that failed acquisition for months. Just hammered Jerry for being too scared to pull the trigger.

Maybe...Maybe not. We will never know except possibly with Dak if we let him go. You can't keep your team together when you start handing out long term contracts. Guys want to get paid and will work the system to get it.

We weren't picking at the top of the draft. You have to be picking in the top 3 to get a potentially great QB. You have to tank a season to get into the top 3. That's why smart teams figure they can be great one year and then have to start over by tanking a season.

I get what you are saying. I'm just stating people were pretty upset we didn't get Lynch. Not sure what they saw in that dude.

They wanted Lynch to backup Romo like Dak was supposed to. Romo got hurt again and lost his chance to take a team to a championship game. NE's model at building teams in the last two decades is the only way to create a winning franchise like the 90's Cowboys today. The salary cap creates natural parity except with Bellichick who keeps players who want to win more than make the most money.
