Aubrey likely to receive 2nd-round tender, projected to be more than $6 million

[gtb1943]

Aubrey's not the extraordinary all-world kicker some are making him out to be. A number of kickers were better or just as good. Paying him big $ makes no sense whatsoever, especially for a team this far from the SB. His fall wasn't as dramatic as Brett Maher's, but it was a significant fall nonetheless.

He’s one of the top kickers in the NFL. The Cowboys are apparently prepared to pay him like one, nearly $6 million for 2026.

He's one of several. $6M is absurd, but it is the 2nd round tender. Would be a gift for someone to cough up a 2nd for a guy who is no longer a top 5 kicker.

You personify the head in the sand sort of fan I was referring to.

If the players are smaller in Japan, its probably the old days of yhe NFL.A lot of movement and fun to watch.

We would still have the right to match the Bills' offer in that scenario. It would just be a matter of cost versus the value of the pick. And as you said, he is an exception, for sure.

Of course, but just tender him a first rounder. this way if some team really does get crazy dumnb enough to make the cotract insane you at least get a real draft pick, real compensation.

It is, and they have some good sized players too. Its just that a lot of them are not necessarily massive. That said, I think they certainly have the technique and discipline. Plus, their kickers have massive legs too; did you see the kicker from U Hawaii (who's from Japan).

 

[DStar22]

Me too. It’s great having a very good kicker, but this team can win just as many games with any competent kicker. If someone signed him and sent us a 2nd rounder, that would help the roster build. Having one of the top 3-4 kickers is more a luxury than a necessity.

We're not here to win just as many games as we have before... we are here to win the BIG games we have not won before and in such games, you might need a great kicker, especially with the parity of teams now more commonplace in the NFL every game.

 

[CowboyDAK]

It would suck to lose him, but, for a second rounder? I'd be okay with it. Plus, there are a lot of good kickers that are likely to go undrafted and/or are in the UFL where we got Aubrey.

Ask the packers about that

Ask the packers about that

Good point

Why is everything so complicated for JJ. Just sign the man already. He is our MVP.

Would I take Demarcus Lawrence over Aubrey? Yep

The same guy that waited for surgery before signing his deal?

That Demarcus Lawrence?

Go look at our second round picks. Id take Aubrey over all of them.

I just told you I’d take Law. I’d take Diggs too. Probably Chido. Like I said I don’t value kicker like most of you do. Talking about mvp and all this other crap lol. He wouldn’t even make my top 10 mvp list lol.

Diggs? Come on now

I was pointing out that your post was clearly ill informed

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Diggs? Come on now

Oh yeah I’d for sure. Not 2026 Diggs but if it’s the second round and I ended up with a Trevon Diggs prospect? I’d be happy.

not surprised that those with limited football knowledge think kickers are unimportant

They like 60-70 yarders despite it not resulting in wins. I like Aubrey and this is all hypothetical because no one would ever trade a 2nd for him. But if I got offered that for any kicker in the league you take it. People are speaking from emotion.

Please stop being an idiot and responding to me. I never said kickers weren’t important. Simple comprehension and yet you are the one calling people dumb lol…..People come here to talk sports not be talked down by someone who knows absolutely nothing. You’re no better than the best or worst person on this site. Who are you suppose to be to tell a player they have limited knowledge or they made a dumb post? Why because they don’t agree with you? If you are constantly telling people this maybe you need to reevaluate your own knowledge maybe you’re the idiot you claim everyone else to be.

If you dont think he was the co-mvp of the cowboys after putting up 155 points then I dont know what to say to you.

He alone had more impact on our offense point totals than Lamb and Ferguson.
