I just don't get their approach here.
Great, they have faith in Dak. It's not a crazy stance to have. But it's clear to even some of his biggest fans, that Dak isn't Mahomes or a QB that can take a team and carry them when things go awry. For Dak to succeed, things around him have to be clicking as well.
So it begs the question why would you commit all that money to Dak and then just kind of nibble with a roster that was clearly not good enough to make a run last year? I mean I am all for not spending top resources on a TB but what they did this offseason was laughable. And knowing Dak will perform better if he has a better run game and that's the plan they come up with? Oy.
Stephen and Jerry just seem to make moves in a vacuum. Meaning, there is no plan or vision. There are no interconnected moves here. They just accumulate players and hope a coach can piece them together. They need a QB. Ok sign Dak. But there should be a plan here - Dak is what he is so to make sure we get the most out of him, given his flaws, we also need to do A, B and C. And yet, there is A or B, maybe a C. Take this offseason. I think one can argue that they needed to fix the run game and frankly, they could have also maybe brough in another WR as Dak would benefit from having more targets. So they kind of half *** tinker with the OL, drafting Guyton but then not much else. Their RB plan was chuckleworthy - Elliott as the solution with Dowdle? LOL. And they don't do anything at WR. So there was no plan to help Dak here. Just sign him and hope the rest falls into place.
Their logic seems to be, "hey, he's a good player, sign him............."
Then cross your fingers and hope.
Teams will be lining up to sign him. He won’t last 24 hours in free agency before he’s made the highest paid QB in the league.
