Cowboys Plan to Re-Sign Trey Lance

[loublue22]

While the eagles try to make themselves better to win a SB we sign scrubs that might never even play any meaningful games for us. Jerry just trying to prove he's a football man.

The Eagles drafted Hurts when they had Wentz.

I mean what is he even worth? He couldn't beat out Sam Darnold......a 3 year million dollar deal? What is this guy worth?

 

[DallasEast]

it would really hurt if somebody wasn't extended. My stomach would be hurting and I know I would lose sleep over it.

Try Pepto Bismol when you have nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, DIARRHEA!

I don’t care as much about Lance’s contract. What worries me is the part about the Cowboys working on a MASSIVE extension for their team leader.

He’s not playing up to this contract and we’re going to give him a raise? Wow

 

[Hawkeye0202]

To me none of those possibilities are off the table either.

I agree.....even though they keep saying Dak's extension is just a matter of time.

 

[KingintheNorth]

So once the 5th year option is bypassed, Trey's options are to re-sign for cheap or UNRESTRICTED free agency.

I wonder what he'll pick.

 

[JayFord]

Hes 100% going to replace Dak and could be as early as next year

i fully expect him to start in 2025 though..no nfc title or sb then Dak is gone

 

[mardwin]

Why on Earth would Lance sign a deal at a backup rate?

He should do that where he'll have an opportunity to start.

He's getting his chance here.

Well if we traded draft picks not ro resign him that would be pretty stupid.

giving a 4th for him was stupid, the eagles just gave a 5 and 6 for a all pro db.
but your right once you trade for and sign him initially your stuck with him .

 

[Whirlwin]

Uh could we maybe see him play first? My thought is one of the best offensive minds in the league walked away from him so call me a skeptic.

Why do you need to see him play. You’re not the one resigning him.

They just happened to find gold on the bench in Purdy. There was also a war brewing from 49er fans some wanted Purdy some wanted Lance so to avoid that they just traded Lance since they were clearly going with Purdy.

I consider Trey Lance unproven as he has only thrown 131 NFL passes. He might very well be a bust, but it's too soon to determine that.

8 Years of Dak, at this point I’m willing to make next training camp an open battle for A#1 QB. Dak does not deserve a $47m contract at this point, rather totally roll the dice with someone new.

 

[ShortRound]

15 pages, 52 hours minimum. Over/Under?

Over if Dak fight ensues (good chance)
Under if mods step in (cough cough)

 

[DandyDon1722]

They absolutely should.

Then they should draft a QB every single year. In fact I would put roger a package of picks and try to move up in what is a very good QB draft.

No stone should be left unturned - of course the move Jerry will make is to extend Dak.

Jordan Love was in a similar situation recently, just not the being traded part.

He's already signed a new deal?

 

[speedkilz88]

He's already signed a new deal?

He signed a 1 year deal that he's playing on right now when the Packers refused the 5th year option. He signed for $13.5 million guaranteed with incentives to reach $22.5 million.

What was the consensus of fans on here about Lance coming out in the draft. I bet many thought he was a good prospect. And when SF traded to get him 3rd overall. Many thought, why don’t Jerry do stuff like that.

Now it seems many and probably the same ones think he is a bum, or wait to see him play crowd.
He did not have enough playing time in SF to know….and no, the eye test does not count.

If this was the case they would simply take the fifth year option (2025) in Lance's deal and pay him like the starting QB you think he will be. And they aren't doing that.

I have a feeling this forum is going to explode when the Cowboys extend Dak again. Because- if only for cap relief- they have no alternative.

According to the article in the OP, the Cowboys had a second round grade on Lance in 2021. So we know where they stood on him.

I thought Lance was an excellent athlete but I was surprised the 49ers gave up so much to draft a kid with only 19 college starts at a lower level of competition.
