We missed our opportunity to sign him last year choosing to wait and see how he performed in 2019. Now if we wait until 2021 he’s going to be much more expensive .
At least about 7 million more just on the Franchise Tag but an extended contract next year will surpass anything we could arrive at today.
Assuming we still want Dak for years to come if we don’t sign him today it’s going to be a poor financial decision compared to next year or years ahead.
The only conclusion we can arrive at today if we don’t extend him is we aren’t sold on Dak and that message will be loud and clear.
Yup... love Dak or hate him this is the most basic of all facts.
Dallas costs to extend him only goes up and Dak's price isn't coming down.
He's had 4 years of solid QB play with an ascendant season last year that saw him dramatically improve pocket awareness and footwork.
Even if he has a very down COVID season it isn't going to derail his asking price thought it may deter Dallas from meeting it.
Free agency has always been undefeated and true QB1 almost never make free agency, much less proven QB1s at his age.
Sign Dak at no cost in draft capital??
5-7 teams would be in on him immediately at prices above Russell Wilson.
