There it is. They open this can of worms on the radio and then begin to negotiate, the anger of the posters here is aimed at the wrong person.
I know it's a term for behavior of the foolish variety and a dessert.
For that year only, he has no future contract or guarantee in place.
I guess if we can't blame them for talking out loud, we should ask ourselves why they're the only ones that do that? Any GM or COO starts talking about any player's contract at the zenith at that position, that's not going to affect the agent and the player?
And why Jethro Jone$ continues to be a conflict on interest for Cowboys Football.
You are comparing leadership of a QB and RB? One position requires it and the other doesn't, think Emmitt was a leader?
It goes beyond the label, they're both promoting themselves, that's the major problem with Booger and it will get worse with his son.
Especially with a team giving him the most carries per game since he came into the league.
Of course JJ will sign him. You know when I knew.. When they interviewed him and he said when have I never got a deal done. That let me know he will get his money and before the season starts. He wants a ring before he is gone.
Agree but it is not a given that the COO goes on the radio and starts talking new contract and admitting he thinks he's the best RB in the game. Wait, I take that back. On this team, that is a given.
So he's not a leader, who cares? I am not aware of too many RB's that are leaders.
The Cowboys Break show stated the team can use both franchise and exclusive tag next offseason. I would use both tags on Cooper and Dak then try to sign J-train and Byron to long term contracts.
And what if he catches that injury that's just waiting to happen this year? Some seem to think he's indestructible, he's not. He's tough but tougher guys tear cartilage, ligaments and screw up joints and he's going to pull that hurdle stunt once too often.
I love Dak. I dont believe he worth more then Rodgers, Big Ben or Russ. Hopefully he takes the top 5 offer the Jones family made.
I've *****ed for years that they talk too much. But do I think what he said changed the parameters of Zeke agent? Not at all. Anyone who has payed attention the past 20 years, or however long they have watched football, knew where the negotiations were going to start. SJ said what we all knew, or should've known. So you honestly think that his agent was going to start below Gurley money? Zeke is arguably the best RB in the league and you think his agent would come below the top paid RB?
Not since it started talking back
