Daks agents counter proposal:

"You give us 30 million per year, and we won't ask for 35 million."

I heard on the radio today, someone said that if the Cowboys stay put at say $26mil, Dak will take it because of the breadcrumbs he has made so far. He has never had a "bird in the hand" so although he could maybe make more else where, he will take that substantial pay increase.

You could get a damn solid 2nd string QB for what you are willing to offer.

Which is right around what Dak is or should be. Dak was/is valuable on his rookie deal. He will be an albatross around the team’s neck at $20+ million a year. He simply isn’t good enough at playing QB to lift or carry a team. Maybe if he could play quarters 1-3 the way he plays quarter #4, it could be a different story but until he does that, he isn’t worth the contract he’s about to get.

If you think that's true you aren't paying attention to the NFL and the QB position. The top QBs do not represent the bulk of the QB position, and in fact they only represent a small fraction of it, and fans have to understand that if they want to have a fair discussion. There are a lot more QBs below Dak's level that have an NFL roster spot than there are above him, and even among NFL starters it can easily be argued there are anywhere from 15-20 that are below him. If you want to pay $10 million below market value there is no question the QB position for the Cowboys would take a major hit.

This isn’t just any old all-pro Quarterback, this is Dak freaking Prescott. They’re not trying to go by the market value, he IS the market. Have you seen his numbers? Somebody flash this greenhorn his numbers.

I have a solid way of settling this.. Lets take the years Wentz has finished a full season and multiply by 10. That will be yearly average ...uh... ...wait......
Never mind, apparently Thats illegal to pay someone that much..

Once this gets done, this place will be :popcorn: X 1,000,000

I prefer they wait for him to prove it this year. Though can’t deny his 32-16 record. However, we all know he will be the QB here for good or bad or average for years. So may as well support him. It could be worse, we could go through another 8 to 10 years to find a QB. We could have the Quincy type, older Vinnie T and Brad Johnson types.

Or worse, be like the Browns 20 years or more of a QB search, Jets, Raiders, other teams.
At least with Dak we have won for 3 years in a row, and was robbed by Goodell of making the playoffs for 3 in a row.

I think Kitna will help Dak, and with a new playbook if Moore is all that. Many will be pleasantly surprised this year.

Dak is the Quincy type. Hell a case could be made Quincy was better. Look @ the cast of clowns he had to work with..and made it to the playoffs. ...compared to all the first round talent Dak has...and is gonna squander. Too bad Quincy's undoing was the powder.

Most stupid thing I read in a very long time on here, since an hour ago.
Dude let the hate go, you will feel so much better about life.
