....and think how everyone has said the Dallas defense has sucked for years so how do you expect to rebuild it into a Top 5 defense that Dak needs to win????

They said Dallas didn't want him, which has been proven wrong by the money the Cowboys have thrown at him.
They're only "right" because Dak would rather be a free agent than hitch his wagon to Jerry long-term.

Well judging by some of the things Dak's brother has posted out in the wild, what you say may not be far from the truth. I'm also sure that Jerry/family isn't happy that they've tried to negotiate/make deals in good faith and Dak's agent has stone cold turned them down on every offer. Seems like a lot of pride/resentment going on even though they will end up saying "it is Just Business" whatever the outcome.

They can improve. But we're probably in bad shape for the next year or two. This D is just bad. We could have had Mahomes last year and 8-8 is probably the best that could happen. Dak easily beats Pitt. and the Eagles last year. Diggs has shown promise. Get another guy and who knows? But I won't be expecting a run until at least 3 years from now. Two years if all the cards fall into place.

You might have hit on the reason France has played the stonewall game with the Joneses according to reports but there is one thing that makes me think otherwise.They said Dallas didn't want him, which has been proven wrong by the money the Cowboys have thrown at him.

Booger being his own GM is closer to the players than other owners, and that's one of the reasons he likes doing it. I would think Prescott would feel comfortable talking to him if he didn't want to remain in Dallas and end any negotiation. Or approach a tag and trade situation with them. It's not like there's a rough relationship between Prescott and the Joneses as developed in PHL with Wentz.
We don't know squat because Prescott has played this perfectly and given the media nothing to run with and kept most of the fans on his side. His brother shoots his mouth off but he might be like Billy Carter or Roger Clinton. With what has happened in Dak's family, I don't see him telling his brother to not be himself. Lot of pain shared by the two brothers.

Never....as your best-case scenario will be Jerry will tag and waste good cap dollars for another sub-par season in 21 and Dak hitting the road in the off-season.
Your worst-case scenario and the one that the majority of GM would implement in our situation is an outright release of the player!

Don’t need a top 5 defense. Just top 15. With a new DC, more development in the 2nd and 3rd year players, a top defensive player at #10 and a couple FA’s they could be right there.

So he is a troll because he has his own opinion which differs from your own? Okay.

Not necessarily. Lawrence was tagged a 2nd time and about 10 days later signed a long term contract. To many people think it has to be either or on March 9th when it doesn't have to be.

I'm hoping for $75 million guaranteed per year for 3 years. You can never pay too much for a franchise QB.

Daks most successful years coincided with Dallas having a top 10 defense. And the best we got out of that was 1 playoff win. So much for that theory. But hey we have an overpaid spare at QB so that should be a nice consolation prize for everyone because these days that’s about all this clown show is going to produce.

You reap what you sow. Man up and deal with it instead of whining to the mods.

Reap what I sow? Interesting given you called someone a troll for no other reason then they disagreed with your position and then you were called out on it.

Please forgive my ignorance on some of the the nuts and bolts of the NFL salary cap mechanism but when do teams have to be officially cap compliant?
