The Cap setback is potentially only one year. The NFLPA new bargaining agreement is in 2021 which has never decreased . And by 2023 the Cap is expected to increase significantly adding a 17th game.If the offer from the Cowboys was 5 years $175 million with $110 million guaranteed them by not signing Prescott is clearly more concerned with being paid as much as he can than being paid well and playing on one of the most QB friendly offenses in the league. Do not forgot the state tax benefits.
Wentz is an All Pro QB and he has a ring. Goff is a multiple pro bowl QB and he reached a SB. Both were high first round picks. All facts no opinion. A year back they signed for $32-33 million a season with similar guaranteed money to Prescott. The Mahomes contract is basically irrelevant to Prescott given the way it was structured.
Covid-19 will impact upon revenue and as a result likely the salary cap for a few years.
Even if Prescott can get $37-$38 million a season is it really worth it for him? It just seems a strange decision unless his priority is money as there's little reason to believe the Cowboys front office will budge from their current offer in relation to the salary cap given their stance over the past two years.
A lot of players would do the same but my point is given the above I do not really see how or why people would think that money isn't the priority for Prescott. Which is a concern as a Cowboys fan having a QB playing on the tag with his legs being his best weapon. I can see a lot of business decisions throughout the season.
Your argument stems from not being sold on Dak which is understandable but that’s not the Cowboys position.
From every indication we have heard from our ownership they are All In and totally sold Dak is their guy.
