4 Cowboys who are next in line for contract extensions

[big dog cowboy]

If they extend Dak, you pretty much well can count on Dallas not getting to an NFCCG, much less a SB. The misery continues. Dallas should be looking for his replacement already, not an extension.

Yep. That is why I posted this:

That's why I said if Levis is there are 26, run to the podium.

But really it applies to any of the top 5 QBs.

Dak’s not the type of QB I see getting better with age. Maybe I’m wrong.

Leading the league in interceptions in his 7th season says you may not be wrong

Honestly, some Cowboys fans may as well turn in their Cowboys card now.............there's no way they will survive Dak getting a new deal over $50M+. (lol).

In this projection, there are two void years (2030, 2031) to allow for bonus proration and future cap conversions.

The average salary of the new money being sent to Prescott would be $51 million, $2 million more than Wilson’s $49 million signed in 2022.

Prescott currently has $34 million of cash due to him in 2024, making the total value of this deal $289 million across six seasons,

Wilson had two years remaining on his deal when traded to Denver, so his five-year extension made it a seven-year deal for $296 million in cash, or $42.3 million on average.

Prescott’s deal far surpasses that at an average of $48.2 million across the six seasons.

This contract would reduce Prescott’s 2024 cap hit from it’s current level of $59.5 million, down to $41.5 million; creating $18 million of space.

Projected guaranteed money​

In our deal, Prescott would be seeing a fully guaranteed amount of $125 million.
That would include a $70 million signing bonus (he received $66 million in 2021) and fully guaranteed base salaries for 2024 and 2025, a fully guaranteed 2025 Option bonus and a partially guaranteed 2026 base salary.
Prescott’s total guarantees would be $185 million, as 2026 and 2027 bonuses would guarantee on the fifth day of the prior season and be fully guaranteed for injury.

Year-by-Year cash to Prescott​

2024: $72M
2025: $43M
2026: $40M
2027: $50M
2028: $36M
2029: $48M
Total: $289 million

Gosh, I'm going to miss Dak.

Did you know the Houston Oilers once drafted a QB in the 1st and 3rd rounds in the same year? They both ended up with 12 year careers with at least 8 of those years as starters. Dan Pastorini and Lynn Dickey in 1971.
