The article you posted. It post details from the offer made Feb and then goes on to say that not much has changed. I don't understand the confusion here. The article is not giving any new info. It's not giving any facts at all. It's quoting "trusted sources" and doesn't name them. I guess if you wish to believe that the team is offering 105 for 7 years, you can do that. But honestly, do you really believe they would do that? I mean, the article mentions that the AAV is in the area of 33. The numbers don't work on that.
Pretty much everything put out there is heresay anyway but you haven't posted anything disputing what I've said. And I highly doubt you will see any reports where the author names their sources. I have not even seen any info of these multiple offers you keep claiming. The only offers I've seen reports of in months were one with about $90 million guaranteed (which later it came out that was before the season started) and the latest was $105 million guaranteed. Not saying there haven't been other offers but I haven't seen those reports.
You seem to be getting the guaranteed money confused with the total contract (or think I am). The total contract on a 7-year deal with $34 million AAV would be $238 million. But only the guaranteed money really counts, which in that offer was $105 million. So basically only 3 years are guaranteed. But then the Cowboys would still have his rights for up to four more years with no guaranteed money. It wouldn't be in Dak's interest to sign a contract like that.
