Agreed.
Reminds me of the Zeke saga. If Zeke played for Bellicheck or Pete Carroll none of this sit out garbage would of happened. Both coaches would tell the media (when the media asked in the off-season about extensions) "no we don't do extensions/hold outs with 2 years left, our organziation have never been run this way, there will be no future talk of contract extensions". That would of literally been the END of it.
Stupid Jerry and his arrogant Son do the opposite and tell the media "we already have the money allocated for him", "Zekes our boy for life", "Todd gurley is the starting point of negotiations" then try to act all suprised when he holds out.........
Dak will have all the leverage until they put there foot down and start doing things to move on
Exactly, I still remember shaking my head and asking myself why they would ever say that, as if they had/have zero clue on negotiating leverage.
Instead they act as if they don't even have to worry about cap ramifications, we can say whatever we want because we are rich stupid fools,,
Jerry has made several serious blunders recently that will cost this franchise for even another long term losing era,, my apologies to the delusional.
The Cowboys signed the wrong players first.

Zeke - which also includes bad build strategy.. really good RB, really bad stupid contract.
Should have already had the Dak deal done, rather you like Dak or not, without these other bad contracts, and now this franchise is going to probably loose Cooper because of it.
That's pissing away a 1st round pick, and when you do that, you fall behind the rest of the league, and you continue being just an average team.
The thought process of this front office has been rather lame duck status as of lately, and that what equates to failure in this fast paced league of late, where you get left behind
quickly and fall behind and left behind these days.
Even bad teams like Arizona are putting the pieces together to be successful in this new era of the game.
