Being the Cowboys QB sure does come with a lot of benefits.

If Dak was a Jacksonville Jaguar, put up the exact same stats through 5 years that he has in Dallas, he would not be the 2nd highest paid player ever.

Exactly. If the front office had any sense, they would have signed him earlier. All tagging him did was raise the amount.

They had to wait until he went 8-8 and 1-3 with a broken leg before they gave him the big bucks.

It's the Cowboy way.

It’s saying a lot, but it could’ve been the worst move they’ve made since Joey Galloway.

It depends on what you call a championship? If it is the highest and most important championship in that sport than no. The 3 soccer players on the list Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar have never won the highest championship in their sport in that they never held the World Cup trophy.

I assume this includes endorsements also.

Not sure the World Cup is seen as the highest accolade in football (**) any more. European football has moved to be a financial powerhouse at club level since I was a little boy growing up in the 1970s in the UK and the Champions League is seen as the gold standard now, not the World Cup. The likes of Ronaldo has won the Champions League with different clubs and indeed, the league title in 3 of the top leagues in Europe. It's difficult because of place of birth to win the World Cup if you come from a small country when you are up against countries with a talent pool 10 times the size.

** Can I call it football please? I Never quite get why the game of football (that you use your foot to play) is called soccer by Americans but the game played by NFL teams is called football when virtually no player uses their actual foot in the game? Do you ever think that strange or is it just me here in the UK?

This epitomizes the failure of the Dallas Cowboys to achieve. When does the value of the Cowboys franchise significantly diminish? The Cowboys pay megabucks for mediocrity year after year for 25 plus years yet the value of the franchise remains at the top.

I'm surprised Roger Federer is still making that kind of money and that there are no golfers on the list. I always thought golfers made a ton of money.

Because of the signing bonus, Dak is the highest-paid NFL player this year only.

No offense to Dak but look at all those great names and Dak is 4th? The guy has won anything - his name should not be on the same list with those names.

All those guys have are champions - actually won multi-championships. Dak won 1 playoff game.

If you ever wanted to know if Dak is overpaid..... this list is proof
