*Good question,,, ( enters the forum& approaching the podium is the renowned proffesor of every& all aspects needing seriously viewed opined oversight of such impactful type of things,,, M. Feud) "what was the #9's last contract's compariably ballpark figure, structurally tiered at? As compared to his then "current" peers contract's of the likewise players position? ,,, Account fer' the ever present seasonal inflationary market creep & pencil that puppy's paycheck downo_O

Tony made upwards of $125 million over his career but he started out with a $225,000 salary in 2003. So we start at $125million for 6 years?

They may have made a tentative agreement, but the way Dak is playing now, I'm pretty sure his agent is going to keep asking for more. Jerry should have signed him for slightly more than Goff money when he could have. Every week he's not signed is going to Jerry more and more. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the floor is now $35 million a year.
We don’t know if he could have signed him earlier. That’s just talking head speculation and not fact.

Well, numbers just really aren't my bag,baby!,,,er,,, until I'm forced into that cyphering arena,in & of such,where
( fair warning havin' thusly done been rendered) a formidable foe of proven credentialed Texas instruments brand calculus capabilities from my left front shirt pockets plastic sleeved protector&it'll leap in a blazing quick flashbulb like speed of a whizbangerwhamjammie nature,,,as you'd likely ever catch a glimpgly of ,or maybe not!,,, although, to take 'lite' of my lifelong practiced art in the strong side backpocket.38 snub 5shooter draw& dead-drill is documented in that unhealthy categories casing-linero_O


*SHEESE& man alive,,, that piles up to a pretty big heaping pile,once a feller steps back & ganders at the total compiled sum,and ,after having taken into serious consideration the actual stowed away innate shortcomings of the initial abilities of the #4's seabag of game, coming into to the league to begin with?,,, Ya,I'd pay that,bro! DAMN RIGHT,as it's factoring out a hell of a lot cheaper than what's been "floated" around at,that being of @32-35 mil per year:starspin:

The Cowboys and Dak have mutually benefitted from their relationship. Sure being a Cowboys player, especially a marquee player like the QB of the Dallas Cowboys puts you in position to make some extra off field cash. No question. And Dak and other Cowboys have certainly benefitted.

But that doesn’t mean because he has some good deals off the field he should take a home town discount. All players (workers) deserve to get paid at market value for the job they do. If the Jones boys don’t want to pay Dak market value for a successful NFL QB, they are shooting themselves in the foot. Even decent QBs are hard to find in this league. That’s why they get paid so well. There would be a line of teams who would try to sign Dak if we didn’t. But I think this gets done.

The Cowboys need to sign Dak sooner than later. The price tag isn’t going to get smaller

Dak will be shooting himself in the foot if his salary screws the team over. What is "Fair," market value. There are massive benefits to playing qb with the star, vs a Jaguar. He should reaize that.

Yea, off field revenue has never played into football contracts. Is that what this is all about?

That’s a very long article. Can you summarize it’s content? And your spin on this.
it is a long article. It talks with a few Cowboys players that talk about the benefit and business opportunities that playing for the Cowboys, and Jerry Jones offers. It is pretty clear that Jerry is trying to give his players business opportunities that they would never get if they played for other teams. It has a few players that are giving the pluses to playing for Dallas.. specifically the offices that Woodson and Emmitt have at the star.............. like I said, it is clear that playing for the Cowboys has huge pluses and IMO, players like Dak should absolutely take less to take advantage of those advantages. There is some good info that gives us a litttle insight into those benefits that we , I know I was not aware of.

It’s not a players job to budget the teams Cap. That’s up to the owners and front office.

If they don’t believe they can continue surrounding Dak after they pay him him, then let him walk.

But they won’t. You try to make as good of deal as you can and figure it out from there.

Winning isn’t the ultimate goal. It’s making money.

Look at all the revenue Dak is generating now without winning nothing more than a division title. Fans get entirely too worked up over winning championships.

Dak has all the fame with the limited success he’s had. Only Brady outsold him in jerseys. Winning is extremely over rated. Ask Jerry. He’s become the #1 Revenue team without winning a championship in 25 years.

Sounds like Jerry might be attempting to circumvent the Cap. I’d investigate .

These players career could end on the next snap , game or season. They should maximize their earning potential.

The owners will release them without any loyalty as they see fit. No contracts are fully guaranteed.

Agree , wearing the star on the helmet doesn't belong in contract negotiations. What ever Dak's market value is he should get.
The NFL player agreement says the draft position determines value for first 4 years. How do you determine Ur stance on this? As a free agent, anything can be considered, but as a non free agent, the NFL agreement determines this. The NFL is NOT a freemarket enterprise. There is a cap in this agreement. If Dallas chooses to give a new deal, it can include anything it wants , period. The NFL is already at odds with anti trust laws. If I'm the Jones, I remind Dak of the privilege of being a cowboy. I would also, save every dime possible with every player on the team , if I'm interested in winning games. Throwing money around carelessly in this salary cap era has implications that affect the teams success. Your statement, is just an arbitrary opinion. You need to state it as such.

so do you think the Cowboys are making anymore money today than they did with Romo??? Why do you keep harping on the money aspect that they COWBOYS make? The cap is what the cap is, the CO)WBOYS are gonna make the exact same amount of money wether they pay Dak 10 dollars or 100 million.

read the darn article.

The players in the article make it pretty clear that they are damn happy they played for the cowboys, and their income potential AFTER playing for the Cowboys is far more than if they played for the Bengals.

How do you figure? Sounds like they’d save 100 million to me.

Of course they’re making more now . It continues increasing.

It’s too long to read . I asked for a summarization.

What players? Former players or current ones?

This is a load of crap asking Cowboy players to take less because of potential outside revenue.

Maybe we should ask Jerry to lower his ticket prices since he’s making so frikin much.

You actually believe players should take less to increase the teams chances of affording more talent to win? Totally absurd. Lol

Ask the owners if they care that much to take less money to win. What a load of crap.

Fans need to grasp that the NFL is a huge money grab for everyone. Wow !!
