This will be tricky.......the rankings say he's the best but are we seeing a truly elite/shutdown impact.




2018 franchise tag for CB is $14.2M

Maybe this could have gone in the other Byron Jones thread......just notice. Your call mod.....
 
Cowboys have some tough calls. In the next year or 2, we have to make decisions on Dak, Zeke, DLaw, Jaylon, and now Byron. We can't afford to keep all of them at market rate contracts. I know which one Risen Star is showing the door. lol
 
Pay Tank. Franchise Jones and let him do it again.

Unless Jones threatens to sit next year, he is signed through 2020.
So the first possible franchise tag would be the 2020 offseason.
But yea, I'm on the wait and see camp with Jones, or at least not wanting Jerry to lock him up now.

Figure any long term deal would start in the 15-16 mil range if he does keep this up for a year/year +

IIRC
Dak is UFA in 2020
Zeke will at the very least get his 5th year option exercised, so UFA in 2021
Smith is RFA in 2020. At best can be tendered for a year and possibly see FA in 2021
Tank is UFA in 2019
 
This is his contract......we have him for 2019 @ $6.2M but would be cheaper to try and get him signed NOW $13-15M range?

6/11/2015: Signed a four-year, $8.601 million contract. The deal contains $6.993 million guaranteed, including a $4.515 million signing bonus. 2018: $1,012,991 (+ $595,000 roster bonus), 2019: $6.266 million, 2020: Free Agen

Oh yeah, 5th year option.

They do, you are right. This is why it's so hard to watch a team, that I believe has enough talent to win, just go .500 and not take advantage of opportunities. Windows man.

Yea, was just thinking of the bigger names from the 2016 class.

Out of those guys I think we'll have to find a replacement for Collins, who may price himself out of here.
Lee will probably retire or take a cheaper deal IMO.
Hurns is gone in 19.
Heath will want trillions lol. Probably re-sign.
Not sure what to make of Collins(Maliek). Talented but has glass feet.
Gregory we'll find out if he can stay clean/show that potential into a reality.
Most of the rest seem like guys who will get churned out regardless.

I agree but how many or who can we approach NOW and maybe save a little. That would be my thinking if I'm Stephen.

I agree. FA isn't as whacky as the NBA was a few years back but every year a new bar is set for the "top" FAs. Worthy or not. If they believe Jones is the real deal, lock him up in 19 and use his 5th year to spread out the hits. IIRC same thing we did with Martin.

Cause with the Donald and Mack deals, you know Lawrence demands jumped up.

Gregory correct FA date may be off a bit due to his suspension(s).

Here's his contract per Roto.... ( notice he's list as 2019 FA )

5/20/2015: Signed a four-year, $3.814 million contract. The deal contains $1.404 million guaranteed, including a $1,034,500 signing bonus. 2018: $705,000, 2019: Free Agent
 
Cowboys have some tough calls. In the next year or 2, we have to make decisions on Dak, Zeke, DLaw, Jaylon, and now Byron. We can't afford to keep all of them at market rate contracts. I know which one Risen Star is showing the door. lol
Tank is the only one we have to deal with now
But it’s gonna be some tough ones
I suspect jones and Jaylon are signed when their time comes
Zeke has a 5th year option and I think it’s likely he’s tagged a year and then let walk
Dak I think the jury is still out, as of now I haven’t seen enough to make a starter type offer

I think Gregory is still technically a second year player but I could be wrong
