Did Jerry send a hint on Dlaw?

zrinkill · Jul 22, 2021

I wish someone would send Jerry a hint on what a well run organization looks like.

DLaw is no where near Haley’s talent . DLaw is decent but has not earned half of that contract .nothing special for sure . Everyone knows it but cowboys stuck with him for at least 2 years .
Players mostly decline these days once they get paid the big money .

So far that glory can be found from videos from a long time ago in another Cowboy galaxy!

you never comment anything good about our players, they just all suck and all are overpaid. I bet dollars to donuts you’re just a troll fan from another team

Listening to Jerry's press conference, when he made comment of “ We need Charles Haley here … “

First thing that came to my mind without Jerry mentioning another name was " Hmmm, ..Is he really calling out DeMarcus Lawrence ?.."

There isn't any secret that the Cowboys re-signed and awarded DLaw with that huge 100+ million dollar contract because they thought he was the Charles Haley factor ..the War Daddy,..the guy that opposing teams had to scheme and account for before the ball was snapped.

I tend to believe that if Dlaw comes out with another 4-5 sack season in '21, could the Cowboys begin to consider moving away from him, and that big contract, in the very near future ?

Among the highest paid defensive players in NFL, he's being paid 17m this year in 2021, and 19m in '22,... and 21m in '23.

The" dead money" cap hit from cutting Dlaw is 19m, and 11 m ..respectively in the next consecutive years.

Putting a burr under his saddle?

maybe jerry needs another jay Ratliff to come in and kick his butt or hardy to come in and slap some coach's clipboards out of their hands.

Dlaw has to be the one stealing Jerry's money the most. Zeke is a close 2nd, but Dlaw is worse. Dlaw is like Zeke coming out and getting 500 rushing yards for the season and getting paid 15 million to do it.

I think you're giving Jerry too much credit. Lawrence is the third-highest paid DE in the NFL.

Jerry thought he was buying greatness. He was mistaken, as he has been on many personnel moves over the last 20+ years.

I dont see how DE isnt a top priority over the next two off seasons. The Cowboys need to add a young war daddy more than any other position.

Lol You could be right. Have you read "Boys Will Be Boys: The Glory Days and Party Nights of the Dallas Cowboys?"

It's been awhile since read it, probably around 2009 or so, but from what I remember, 80's rock stars didn't have nothing on them. They made the North Dallas Forty players look like choir boys. Jimmy was the type of coach that if you did your job on gameday he didn't care what you did on the other days. Jerry would pick up the tab for everyone at every bar they partied at. And I mean EVERYONE! He picked up the tab for media personnel dinning with them. He treated everyone to a good time. I guess that's why we never heard about these things until the trials started.

Excellent book.

Did Jerry send a hint on Dlaw?
