Twitter: Demarcus Lawrence hungry to get back

Yoshimitsu · Oct 22, 2021

We have a bunch of slow people on this board.

Kinda like what I have been seeing without him. Players seem to care more than ever. Coincidence?

MyFairLady · Oct 22, 2021

Oh wait I forgot this was the year that D Flaw was finally at a point in his career where helping the team win meant something.

Ever notice that the ones *****ing about Lawrence not being good because he doesn't get sacks are some of the same ones that said Ramsey would have been a bad pick in the draft because he didn't get interceptions in college?

100%

He's finna lose his job . He better be hungry.

To who?

Demarcus Lawrence is still a quality player he’s just got a bad contract.

With all of the dynamics that we currently have going on there is no way he can’t be better than years past.

Heck, Randy Gregory is phenomenal right now and with all the different looks Quinn is throwing at teams I would think Demarcus Lawrence should do great.

He’s been out 5 weeks.. This will be week 6 coming up.

I have the Chiefs game circled for him to be back and be a rotational guy for us until he is fully back in the groove.

LOL...when did I give up on Gregory? The accusations you hurl without proof is funny sometimes.

In the past, many times.

Not trying to predict bad things but would not be surprised if Lawrence comes back and within 2 weeks he is out hurt again and tries to make sure his 2022 salary is guaranteed as he probably sees that his arse is gone after the 2022 season given the savings towards Dallas' cap.

We need him to help stop the run more than anything else. There is no denying he's been the best run defender on the team. Some sacks would be nice too.

Yeah I don't think people give him credit (I didn't either until I started watching more video focusing on him) for how many double teams he takes on, and still gets the runner. Or forces the runner inside or out... That is a big deal. Now Gregory having a good run...Parsons being a threat when used right... Opens a whole new world of threat to offenses lol.

I don’t know the dynamics of the cap but is there any way Dallas can get out of their contract with him and not take a huge cap hit?

If he’s got a double digit cap hit then no way Dallas pays him a ton of money to play for someone else.

I eagerly await his return but I don't think he understands how hungry we fans have been for him to produce.

If Dallas were to release him post June you are looking at dead cap hit of 8 mill next season and dead cap hit of 11 mill in 2023 but a cap saving of 19 mill in 2022

I doubt he gets released then unless they feel like they will lose Gregory or Schultz.

His dead money cap after this season is $19M but uncertain when his 2022 salary cap hit ($27M) is guaranteed. They got rid of J. Smith as his contract was guaranteed for 2022 if injured so they didn't want to take a chance and not sure of Lawrence's contract is similar.
If not, then typically the contract would be guaranteed on 3rd business day (or thereabouts) of new season which is in March 2022 I believe. So if traded/released as a pre-June 1st designation then Dallas eats $19M of dead money bit saves $8M against the cap. If post June 1st the $19M gets split so Dallas would eat $9.5M in BOTH 2022 and 2023 but save $17.5M in 2022 and $19.5M in 2023.

He is 28 and has 2 years left before being a FA, I think his contract likely gets restructured next season to free up money

I wonder if they could give him an extension and move money back.

I think he will be good for 3 more seasons.
