2023 Cap Hits: Brock Purdy 1M, Jordan Love 4M, Dak Prescott 27M

[Brooksey]

2024 Update: Purdy 800k, Love 12M, Dak 59M

Dallas: Dak Prescott would have had to be significantly better than both Purdy and Love in the playoffs, he was less than both.
We needed a healthy Stephon Gillmore (or Diggs) to play man coverage with Bland, instead injury forced Quinn into playing zone, a disaster. We needed a healthy LVE
to have a chance at stopping the run, instead we had safeties playing LB and got blown off the ball against the run.

SF: The extra QB money allows SF to field a better overall roster and the best in the NFL
For example, the extra 26M pays for cap hits on Nick Bosa 11M, Fred Warner 9M and Dre Greenlaw 5M

GB: With Jordan Love at 4M, the three WR's on rookie contracts (Watson, Doubs, Reed) they played WAY above their pay grade.
GB is young, talented and have great coaching. They're a very dangerous team until Love wants 50M, the Wr's and DB's want 20M each

Ok and…..purdy will be in line for a mega extension and then they’ll face the same roster hurdles other teams do. Once dak was off his rookie contract that’s when things got complicated but that’s also how it is for most teams. If you can win big during the qb’s rookie deal than that’s ideal but it’s easier said than done.

Only thing this confirms is that we should've loaded the team while Dak was on a rookie contract but we didn't.

Purdy and love will both get even higher contracts in the near future

 

[glimmerman]

Omg then cut him. Cut him, he cost to much money. Now go get someone better than him for 800k. WTH.

We had Dak for cheap for as long as JJ could milk it. At some point these players are getting paid.

Good info,

IMO the biggest obstacle facing the team has to deal with the 2024 Salary CAP hits from, DAK ($59mil), CD ($17Mil) Z. Martin ($28mil), DLAW ($20mil) Gallup ($13mil) how Jerry approaches the Salary Cap will determine everything....who gets the paid, who doesn't...can they or will they bring Free Agents in and who gets a new contract...Its gonna be a interesting offseason in Dallas.

Cowboys are currently setting $16mil over the cap....what will Jerry do

I don't think Lynch and Shanahan pay Purdy.

Extend Dak, Extend Lamb, Restructure Martin, add a year to DLAW, Cut Gallup. Done

"Done" is right.

How stupid. They all are getting new contracts in the off-season.

Agree...but only two of them deserve it

Jordan Love only made it as far as the Divisional Playoff Game. Plus, he's been in the league for 4 years now. Dak as a redshirt rookie took the team the same distance in the playoffs and actually outperformed Jordan Love by a mile or two.

I love it when Dak haters show their ignorance.

Yup, and we see teams drop overpayed QBs who are not winning it all. Jimmy G took the 49ers to a SB and then they got rid of him.

I think good teams are starting to realize that paying for a decent QB may just not be worth it. Cardinals are paying too money for Kyler, is it worth it, or does the exodus of other quality players weaken the team too much ?

My meaningless view is that you pay the top QB’s (Mahomes, Allen, Burrows, Lamar) as they can elevate the team, but just be very careful of the next group of QBs such as Dak, Cousins, Kyler, who need lots of talent around them to win. If Dak gets his big $50mil a year payout, I think this team will be worse in the medium to long run.

Agreed, it's hard to overcome

 

[Aven8]

Meh….Mahomes and Allen are still playing today and their contracts are way more than Dak’s.

Problem is for they way we are constructed we need Dak to perform in the playoffs.

The money SF and GB have to build the rest of the roster is criminal

 

[Brooksey]

Their caps hits are both less than Dak's this year and they both perform or over perform in the playoffs.

What are we paying for?

You can't underperform with this kind of a cap hit

 

[America's Cowboy]

Agreed. No argument there.

Dak NEEDS to accept a contract extension of between $35 - $40 mil/year and give the team a good discount so we can keep the main pieces in place while able to keep building the team.

 

[Aven8]

Well it’s because we have Stephen doing the negotiations. We know he sucks at it. We could have had Dak at 28 million and they stalled.
