Blake Jarwin Contract

I don't remember this being discussed previously.

Blake Jarwin signed a four year, $22 million contract with the Cowboy on March 16, 2020. Jarwin received $9.25 million in guarantees, $6.25 million of which is fully guaranteed at signing. The full guarantee consists of a $4 million signing bonus and Jarwin's 2020 base salary. If Jarwin is on the roster on the 5th day of the 2021 league year his 2021 base salary will be guaranteed. There are an additional $2.25 million in contract escalators.

Earn that money young man!

Unfortunately, we've seen many, many times that posters here give no care about contract details and the salary cap implications and... just about everything that goes deeper than an inch of water.

We did sort of discuss this.

Just not in your thread.

What's your question?

Fair deal for Jarwin and Dallas. He has shown flashes of being a force to be reckoned with.

Witten hurt his progression last year. So glad he is gone.

Good deal for a Top 5 receiving TE.

Jarwin would have to seriously disappoint this year for us to consider cutting him next year. Next year, 3.5 mil salary, 750k in game day bonuses. If he just plays like last year, over more snaps, he's more than worth it.

And Jarwin will be the 5th threat on the field. He'll get the least attention from defenses. His ypt was already 8.9 last year. Should go even higher. On a ypt basis, he's going to look great. He'd have to try to fail to get cut.

All the rumors today about trading for Njoku are silly. I wouldn't give up assets for a receiving TE when we already have our receiving TE. Compiled some of Jarwins 10+yard catches. Just goes to show how ridiculously underutilized he was in favor or JG's friend Jason Witten.

I just posted the info directly from OverTheCap.

There is near zero chance that he gets cut, IMO.

I think Kellen Moore would have preferred to make Jarwin the starter last season, but we all knew that Garrett would play Witten for too many snaps (75%). I'm certain it was all Garrett could do to restrain himself from playing Witten 100% of the snaps.

Agree.

Good video. Good job if that's your work creating it.

I don't think the Cowboys are looking for a TE.

Obviously if a player a any position somehow becomes available for a really good deal they'll consider it, but I don't see them giving up any premium assets for a TE at this point in time.

I believe most fans what more of a traditional, balanced TE, one who is good in both the run and the pass. Problem is, the league is becoming more of a passing league. The TE position has evolved into more of a chess piece to exploit mismatches in the passing game than being a strong in-line blocker for a team's rushing attack. Just look around the league, not many well balanced TE's, you can say that also on the College Level. Jarwin is more of a modern day TE, a big WR playing the TE position. With all the offensive talent the Cowboy Offense has, Jarwin should see favorable match-ups all season long.

Thank you X it is my editing work, appreciate the kind words. I agree completely, but when the Cowboys are mentioned clicks happen you know how it its.

Now that the progress stopper has taken his act to raiderland, we'll finally get a clear indication of just what jarwin can do. Btw, is schulze still a cowboy?

And they needed your permission?

For those of us who would still like to acquire a TE, it appears we already have one that the Cowboys have made a generous commitment to. Blake Jarwin has obviously been singled out as the recipient of their TE quest, at least, for the time being. There are some others in house with enough upside to prove themselves worthy of further consideration in the near future. Let's celebrate that fact and hope for another promising candidate to step up. There are newcomers who are already available, for those of us who haven't noticed. If by chance you have, keep smiling -- we'll be fine!

I think it’s a good buy. I like the kid. Like the way he moves...vatto got some fluid in him. Like him even more now that he’s out of the clappers clutches and Witten has gone vamanos. The vatto gonna make a big jump and be a steal deal.
Hope springs eternal.....

It would probably depend upon how the Cowboys still feel that much about David Njoko. ...still depends if they feel that high on him ..and dig into the interest of what the trade compensations would cost to acquire him.

i believe it was reported at the time Njoko was drafted that the Cowboys were pretty high on him and rated him very high on their draft board.
And how the Cowboys perceive Njoko skill set,.. may likely be a big distance apart of what they consider Jarwin's skill set and potential.

- And i admit that so long as old man favorite Witten was still hanging around, and that ever loving
loyalty to Witt, i never took the idea of drafting Njoko seriously.
BTW, Jason would still be on this team this year ..and still starting and gaining 80-90% of the snaps this year,.. if we had brought back the same ole incumbent HC. (Garrett)

- Frankly with the Browns signing Austin Hooper to a big FA deal, and drafting another TE Harrison Bryant in the fourth round, what was the purpose of picking up the option year of Njoko ?
But maybe their thought process is among what several teams with multiple TE threats:
- Eagles have both Zach Ertz and Dallas Goebert
- Vikes have both Kyle Rudolph and Irv Smith Jr.
- the Bucs have Gronk, Cameron Brate and OJ Howard

- Now i am wishing recently re-signed Jarwin ends up being such an discovered gem find ala Niners' George Little (undrafted) or Raiders (6th rd) .. a find fit since Blake was undrafted himself.

Initially i thought about the Jarwin re-signing as a commitment too,.
and yet there are teams with multiple TE threats.
