I don't really think this is possible for Dak. If Dak doesn't sign his tag, then he's right back in the same situation, same number, next year. He's also another season away from playing football and a lot more to prove because he will have then sat 28 games without playing a down of football. How many teams would then be interested or as interested in paying him a premium contract for a QB who has been away from the game for so long and doesn't really have a history of success in post season?
Its not about not signing the tag, its about not signing the tag until after the draft and free agency. Dak's tag number would not change if he signed the tag the moment they put it on him versus in July, but the team would not be able to trade him until he signed the tag. That is the power Dak has. If he waits until July, he still signs the tag, and still gets all the money he would have gotten under the tag plus the year towards FA, but now trading him is useless because the only thing you do is clear 37 million in cap space that you cant really use on anyone because no one useful is still available.
