"It's not about how much you are worth.....it's about the time of your signing"

This is absolutely the dumbest way to run a team. Yea let me hand out 40 million dollars to a guy who realistically should be 24 -25 million a year.

And a guy coming off a foot injury and rehab. Even what he is making now does not befit an average, injured QB. $10 mil a year until he proves himself, but that salary train has sailed, unfortunately.

lmao, this looked like a negative stats Prescott video, I guess this is another video that doesn't deserve to be watched. lmao. give us some pro stat prescott video, and while we're at it can jerry give stats prescott half of the stadium revenue too. he's worth it, he's better than Troy or Roger. lmao

-------Dak is winning despite a team and coaching staff full of disappointments.

Really? Winning? Isn't he something like 7-13 over his last 20 games or so....and the high majority of those wins were against sub .500 teams.

WRONG.

Dak has proven beyond a question of a doubt that he is a $32 - $35 million/year dollar QB.

No QB in the NFL is worth $40 mil / year.
How in the hell can we make such a claim. Anyone is worth what the market bares.

35 million this year is 45- 50 in a couple years.

He's absolutely right, it would be a huge mistake to re-sign Dak at this point. It's time for both parties to move on, it's not a good relationship for anyone anymore.
Totally disagree. This is all part of the business. Once the ink is dry all is forgotten.

No way to know if they would regret passing on Dak. Ultimately it would depend on who they end up with as the next QB, and how they use the money saved. Even then who knows if they would be better served investing draft capital in the positions the team might need help with rather than using much of that draft capital trying to find the next QB?

The Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott reportedly haven t made any substantial progress toward a long-term contract extension ahead of the 2021 NFL season, and ...


false.....we went through the multi year cycle trying to find the next QB after Aikman and lucked into Romo, because Payton was here and his connections got Romot to come to dallas, since Denver was also interested......you find your QB, you keep him, else you are going fishing in dark waters.

It just doesn’t add up for this ownership not paying Dak. They brought McCarthy in and retained Moore to optimize Prescott and the current roster to make a run now.

A rebuild or retooling without Dak and grooming a new young QB was never part of the plan .

Dak was a miracle away from being 0-4 in 2020...
Yea but in our division 6 or 7 wins was always in play.

And 3 of those loses were to playoff teams we took the distance with a horrid defense.

After starting 1-3 with our schedule with a healthy Dak we wouldn’t have been swept by Washington. That alone would have won us the division

Here's what Arrington overlooked when saying that if the Cowboys really want to get Prescott signed they would have last year. Prior to the 2020 season the Cowboys made an offer and Prescott's agent France gave the Cowboys his demands and never moved off those demands at any point. During those "negotiations" (there was no negotiations) The owner of CAA who employed France had a talk with him about his tactics and suggested he start to actually negotiate. France didn't and that lead to France being asked to leave CAA when July came a long and no deal was done. Now in the last hour or so on July 15th Prescott was doing his own negotiating and the agree on 35 mil a year but ran out of time getting the length and guaranteed money done. The point there was Prescott was actually negotiating and not just sitting on France's demands.

The other thing that Arrington said isn't always true and that is some players know that the money part is business and being tagged is part of that. Now with Prescott especially being that Prescott grew up a Cowboys fan and playing for the Cowboys was his dream job and I think that as close as he came to getting that deal he was/is optimistic that a deal will get done before he has to get tagged again.

Jerry has shown time and again that he not only understands this he embraces it. Jerry actually enjoys the jousting aspect of the negotiation process. People citing that there will be "bad blood" simply have not been paying attention.

Some teams with better Mgmt might regret but not the most dysfunctional organization in the league.
