The argument has taken in every possible scenario for the QB position on this board. But I heard something on the radio today which I think may have been missed. If you have suggested this, my apologies.
The cap in 2022 and past will go up and perhaps significantly. The Disney contract will have a pronounced affect on the cap. But the other affiliates who will jump on board will make a ridiculous contract for Dak much more palatable in the second year and beyond. So the antacid crowd that frets at the spending of a dime on Dak because of the world ending with his contract might take a chill pill on that account.
If it's just about the money, this scenario could cure that and then some.
Fitting his contract in the first year could be resolved with extensions and pushing the guarantee past 2021 to fit both his desires for payment and the teams position - which some claim the Cowboys will be mediocre and nothing can be done about it if Dak signs.
-----------------------------------
Second aspect was discussed on the radio. What if........
Dallas negotiated a contract with Dak and immediately traded him to the 9ers for the 12 over-all pick. Then package those to Houston for Watson. Or to Seattle for Wilson. You might have to sweeten the deal for Wilson. I am opposed to this because I do not think either guy is significantly better than what Dallas has.
Opinions?
First immediately after it was announced about the Disney deal the NFL denied it and I haven't heard anything that the NFL formally announced that contract is real so what you have based you whole idea on is based on a speculation about a deal that was denied by the NFL. Then nobody knows for sure but I very seriously doubt that if the Cowboys get Prescott signed to a contract that they will then trade him away since they have been saying for a couple years that Prescott is their QB for now and in the future.
