What the Cowboys did with Martin's contract is why this team is such a mess. Pushing $27 million into voidable years while paying Dak $60 million a year is about as incompetent as it gets. As I said with Dak, I would not resign Martin and take his entire CAP hit all in 2025 so he is off the book in 2026 when I take Dak's CAP hit and get him off the books.
This team is going nowhere anytime soon, may as well clean off all the CAP garbage and prepare for an overhaul.
You can get anything you want off the books we know this where they spending the money if they're not big free agent spenders they live through the draft and budget free agents you act like if they got this Bing windfall of money on the cat that they're gonna use it properly so you wanna get rid of Prescott and eat all that money just to be bad I think you're one of those people that wanna be in the top five of the draft for the next three years and you would rather be bad then at least have a shot at being good and I'm sorry you just can't do that I know it worked for Denver but it typically is not what teams do they don't eat $60 million and then get worse at the position that was just plain luck and only long term we find out if it was a good move or not but that would not be my plan and it's too late for some of it now two years from now we need to find a way to move on from Prescott but right now when you just resign him and his new money doesn't kick in till right now so yeah maybe at the end of 2026 but not for 2026 we need to keep Prescott for 2025 and 2026...
Now here's the disclaimer I'm putting on my statement now if Prescott looks that all this coming season and somehow he did fall off a Cliff and it just looks like he just is done like washed completely yeah sure you're gonna then have to have a backup plan and try to move on from him but I don't think that's the case the last time he had a major injury was 2020 everybody was talking about him maybe never rebounding from it it could have been a career ender and he turned in one of his best seasons of his career literally 37 touchdowns 10 interceptions a very good year I believe he's going to be motivated because of the bad season the Cowboys had as a whole but him also missing out on participating in the rest of the year he's usually one of those players that will be mo....e of his better seasons again in 2025..
Cowboys need to focus not on cutting these dudes and getting more cap money we need to have one of the best drafts we've had in forever we need to make sure we get can't miss skill players no projects no Flyers no reaches no no injured players in the second round you literally need to make sure your top three draft picks all are day one starters... I don't think they can go wrong with it either no matter what position they pick they just need to be an impact player we have holes all over the place so I just don't think they can get this wrong best player available make sure they have some juice just get them on our team..
Then we have to hope we don't have the bad luck of being one of the most injured teams of 2024 and not have that same bad luck..
