Colin Cowherd: Comparing Purdy's situation to Dak

[CowboysFaninHouston]

But as you mentioned the early years of Purdy's contract he'll be surrounded by that stronger roster and in such circumstances then there's an argument they should go for it. Dak on the other hand hasnt got the roster and now after the injury and acceptance that a lot of the players havent developed as required we arent in a place to compete. Not all Dak's fault, but that doesnt detract from the fact that it's highly unlikely and throwing money and CAP on a forlorn roster and hope.

stronger roster based on draft picks who they have done better than us and not because of FA signings. and again, I have given you multiple examples of teams that are competing including GB, Detroit, Philly, who are all the same or worse cap contract situation than cowboys the way you measured it. contracts get restructured. money pushed to the future. you get a 4, 5 year window. the goal is not to make sure 28 cap is OK, the goal is to make a run in 24,25,26,27.....

Pretty sure not having QB ruins every chance you have of winning a title.

You have a better chance of winning with a solid QB for cheap than you do a little better than solid QB making elite QB money like we have.

We are done until the Prescott era is over. He’s holding us hostage.

How about not overpaying for a mediocre to decent QB? How about that? Teams don’t HAVE to pay these outrageous contracts for QBs who don’t have the commensurate talent to offset the negative impact these QB contracts have on the cap and you don’t pay Sam Darnold anywhere near 50-60 million. If he wants that, or more even, you tell him to kick sand.

But they all do.

Call it cost of doing business or call it fomo, but just hoping to hit on some castoff QB in free agency is not a better strategy than what these teams are doing

We are done until Jerry is done at the least.

All that you really need to know is that Purdy plays for a competent, well run and we'll coached franchise that isn't afraid to move on from QBs that have even gotten the team to the SB whereas. Dak plays for a clown show that tries to pass off mediocrity as excellence and will sign a mediocre QB to the highest contract in NFL history because they are afraid to lose relevance and try to sign and develope a new franchise QB.

Let's just wait and see what Purdy makes. I bet it is at least $50M per season.
