For some reason, I get the feeling the league doesn't respect him. Heck his own team hasn't signed him. Wentz and Goff are locked up....why is he still without a contract?

Rumors are that they have agreed upon the money, but the length of the deal is what is holding things up. The Cowboys want a 7 year extension just like Zeke signed, but Dak's agents want a shorter contract in the 3-4 year range so Dak can cash in again under the new CBA which will increase the salary cap significantly.

They probably come to a compromise where the last couple of years are voidable if Dak hits certain criteria.

So you see it has nothing at all to do with the Cowboys not wanting to sign him, they just have to work out the fine print. It will happen, probably in the next couple of weeks.

The last two years, he hasn’t played well enough to be worth the type of money those guys got and that he was demanding. However, he appears to have taken a huge step forward and actually leapfrogged all the young 1st round QBs. Perhaps it was all on Linehan’s playcalling and the scheme that was holding him back or maybe he just gets it now. It’s probably some of both. Whatever it is, if he keeps it up, he will soon be getting mad respect and money.
Have you seen Goff this year....sheesh. He's average

Chris Carter—Hall of Famer— “we can keep making excuses”(for Dak’s great play) or give him credit
