what if dak refuses to sign the tag? Can he do that?

yes
he has to play five or six games to get his year in

The Dak Hate is strong in this thread..........

That is at least $32M for 2020 Season to those who thought Dak wasn't a Franchise QB...............League Salary denotes Dak is a Franchise QB

Crow anyone???

Maybe, just maybe, THIS was the plan all alone for both Dak and Stephen. In other words, maybe they both would rather wait until next year. No way in hell a deal should be this hard for two parties that truly wanna stay together. Especially when the framework of numbers ( Wentz and Goff ) are already in place.

It was never really about expecting two firsts in return. It's about finding his real market value - instead of bidding against yourself.

It has nothing to do with that either

Could be wrong, but I suspect this means Dak sits out the OTA's and, possibly, TC.

That's what I expect. And the dummies in charge will likely have Cooper Rush on the field so things get off to a terrible start for the new coaching staff. But yet they'll tell the mindless masses that "we got this!"

This front office is incompetent

With the new CBA he cant do that because he will be fined everyday and the teams cant ignore the fine or pay it for the players. It's now on the player completely to pay.

That applies to players still under contract. That's not Dak, he can't be forced to show up for anything, he just doesn't get paid until he signs his tag and then he is legally bound to show up.

Rayman70 · Mar 16, 2020

truth is, we aren't gonna tag him for the entire season. At some point before June or july, we will have a deal in place to either trade him or keep him long term.

Shouldn't he be getting more?

No - puts him in top 3
Which he isn't
This notion that he has to reset the QB market is absurd.

What does the start of FA have to do with it? Dak isn't going anywhere, he's been tagged. They can only use one tag.

Not talking about Dak, talking about how it may effect how they proceed with other FA'S, it it effects it at all. As this will take $31 million of the cap right away. Not say, $15 million with a new contract as the 1st year of a new deal will reduce the cap hit.

Oh I thought we were talking about Dak in this thread. He got the tag.

We are. Someone mentioned getting Cooper deal done ASAP.

ChronicCowboy · Mar 16, 2020

I’m not sure why we’re so scared to let him test the market. It’s highly unlikely a team would be willing to part with two firsts.

cowboyblue22 · Mar 16, 2020

well looks like another year down the tubes before it even start any more trying to be a dallas cowboys fan really sucks

what is the benefit of that? If you’re not a franchise trying to compete for superbowls then What’s even the point?

So you go sign Rivers, he throws 25 interceptions and you go 6-10? Is that the plan?

Or you could possibly bundle those 2 with #17 & move up for Tua

That applies to players who are franchise tagged and refuse to report

I really hope Joey Ickes is on this board and is reading this, lol

That guy is an absolute bozo..

The market changes every year when the cap goes up. Carson got 32.5m a year and the cap goes up by 10%, that puts an equal deal at 36

And all the Dak Boyz rejoice!

Said it before, but I seriously think some would rather Dak get a crazy high deal and the team suffer than him take a little less and the team be better.

Makes no sense to me, but some fans root for the player to get "their money" more than the actual sport or team anymore.
