News: Cowboys placed exclusive franchise tag on Prescott

[HellCrowe]

I'm in agreement with Colin Cowherd:

Not sure is sick looking Skip is in the 20 pages. Thinks Daks agent pay have overplayed

Dam, Skip is looking pretty rough in that video...…………….I wonder if he has the virus or something.

BUT wait...this gives all parties time and options to explore. Trading Dak now also becomes a real option. Tampa may be willing to call Dallas and throw the kitchen sink at us.

Don't tease me with this idea i would love it

You think Dak isn't signing a contract not because of numbers, but because his feelings were hurt? If so, good. I'm against signing hyperemotional players who let their feelings get in the way of business.

But I don't think it's true. Dak is not such a delicate daisy. I think it's numbers. Dak wants more than they're offering. Hence, impasse. It takes both sides to come to a deal.

The only guaranteed way for Jerry to get beyond the impasse is to totally cave to what Dak wants. If you want to blame Jerry, how high an offer do you want him to make? 38mil? 40mil? 50mil?

I think timing and an opportunity was missed. Go back and check my earlier posts if you're unsure of my position.

I was referring to the ad hominem against you:

Don’t be so thin skinned.​

I don't know what occurred prior to that.

Clearly you should check. You've jumped into the middle of a debate without knowing where anyone stands or what's happened.

“Positions that don’t exist”? “Offbase sweeping generalizations?” My original contention was that the Cowboys are heavily criticized for every decision they make. You dispute that? Seriously?

Yes, yes I do. Especially when false, sweeping generalizations are made about 'this forum' based on it.

If you dispute the Cowboys are NOT heavily criticized for everything thing they do, I don’t know what else to say. Do you know something the rest of us don’t, or are you so stubborn to concede a point? In any event, believe what you will, have the last word, whatever you need, no malice.

Stash, I like most of your posts and look forward to more. Go Cowboys!

that is partly true, but it would depend on how well dak played and what the team achieved in those few years.
They might be glad his contract was up, and if he played great or they got to a SB, then give him a better contract.

The long contract at so so pay is all in the favor of the jones boys, the 105 mil g would only cover 3 years, and then they could cut dak if they
wanted, or keep him cheaply. That is a good deal for them, but not dak.
Dak wants a chance at new contract in a few years, and the jones boys dont want to give him that.

All of it is true. It's not partly true. The longer contract is in favor of the team obviously but without players around him, where is Dak going? So it's in favor of Dak as well.

What got paid in his first 4 years is not on the Cowboys. The contract is slotted. The decision not to extend and put more money in his own pocket is Daks. None of that is on the Cowboys.

What is the benefit of making Dak the highest paid player in the league two years ago only to have him come back in a few years and set the market again? That makes zero sense from a team perspective.

Some may want to see us do business that way, I don't. Jerry is doing this correctly, IMO.

Listen to this 'absolute', 'broad brush', 'all encompassing' point you're trying to make here, it's quite silly. It's an unwarranted claim of never-ending persecution that does not exist. In case you're missing out, myself and many other fans are currently giving the Cowboys credit for two recent events:

1. Re-signing Amari Cooper
2. Not paying what the foolish Texans did for Randall Cobb

That flies directly in the face of "heavily criticized for everything they do".

In any event, believe what you will, have the last word, whatever you need, no malice.

No malice here either.

Stash, I like most of your posts and look forward to more. Go Cowboys!

Likewise, a very well handled disagreement. Go Cowboys!

Peace, brutha!

Likewise man! Thanks for an engaging and passionate yet respectful debate.

We love trolls here....thanks for playing.

I'm sure you as a troll love trolls.... I truly apologize to you that I'm not a troll. Thanks for getting played. Stay safe kid!

Why are you sending me a video of you crying lil guy??

 

[romonumberone]

I have very little doubt that a long term deal will get done. I was hoping that the Cowboys would do the non exclusive tag.... I also knew that would never happen. I was just curious what the rest of the board thought with some of the changes with QB's in the NFC where you would rank Dak?

1. Wilson
2. Rodgers
3. Brees
4. Brady
5. Murray.... Completely wrong about him.... I thought he would be a bust.
6. Ryan
7. Wentz
8. Stafford
9. Cousins
10. Garoppolo
11. Prescott
12. Foles
13. Jones
14. Goff
15. Bridgewater
16. Haskins
