Cowboys Rumors: 'More Progress' Made for Dak Prescott Contract Than Amari Cooper

[TwentyOne]

We assumed close to 30.. Next season it will be the norm for a starter. Was hoping for 25-27...

next year doesnt matter.
when you overpay in year one, you did overpay.

 

[Brax]

Will you still watch and support the Cowboys?

Yes and hope they do well, we've all seen a lot worse than Dak at QB, I'm just on the wait and see side of fence on Dak, Jerry is Jerry nothing anyone can do about him.

 

[AbeBeta]

Note the word "could" gentlemen. Could does not mean will and $26 mil is "approaching". Depends on your impressions of "could" and "approaching"

Get over it. 26 mill ain't happening

 

[TwentyOne]

Cooper will get paid top cheddar either here or elsewhere. The recent FA market shows that.
If the Cowboys want to retain him, expect to see them roll in quite a few brinks trucks over the next year or so for some players.

cooper knows we have to pay him if we dont want to look like fools.

which we already are after we did the trade.

so...

 

[Pantone282C]

That was before QBs like Wilson started signing 35+mill dollar deals...

Honestly Id be ecstatic if we can get a deal done at around 26-28mill a year... The cap will keep going up and guys like Pat mahomes is fixing to break Wilsons deal and prbly get closer to 40mill a year

Blame it on gullible GMs and owners who leverage their cap space on promises instead of results.
Last year:
Matt Ryan: $30M
Kirk Cousins: $28M
Jimmy Garoppolo: $27.5M
Matthew Stafford: $27M
Derek Carr: $25M

i dont want to pay Dak 30m a year but whatever.

The more disturbing part of that OP was this

"Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported the update Tuesday and noted the Cowboys have made "more progress" toward a new deal with Prescott than with wide receiver Amari Cooper, whose demands have been "shockingly high.""

Get over it. 26 mill ain't happening

Ok $26.5 mil

 

[TheSkaven]

Dak’s numbers with Cooper:

8W and 3L, 69% completion percentage
17 TDs (plus 6 rushing TDs), 5 INTs

The numbers are even better if you take out that Titans game, when Cooper obviously wasn’t integrated into the offense yet.

If I gave you those stats without the quarterback’s name, any of you would want that as your franchise quarterback, even the staunchest Dak hater.

Bottom line: they both need to get signed.

 

[Cowboys22]

Not to interrupt the people in complete meltdown, but guaranteed money and the potential value of a contract that includes incentives are wildly different things.

A contract that is something like 5 years of 80 million guaranteed but 150 Million if he hits every possible incentive is a great deal for both sides.

You may now continue freaking out.

Dak isn’t signing some incentive heavy contract. You can keep dreaming while the rest of us with common sense continue freaking out.

 

[northerncowboynation]

These threads are ridiculous. Who cares who gets paid first or how much. The bottom line is our players will get paid. And you ALL know that.
Note the word "gentlemen". Thank you ma'am, for clarifying.

welcome, somebody gotta clarify

 

[JJHLH1]

$30 million per year for Dak seems about right. It would benefit the Cowboys to get this deal done now since the price will only go up the longer they wait.

 

[DIAF]

Dak’s numbers with Cooper:

8W and 3L, 69% completion percentage
17 TDs (plus 6 rushing TDs), 5 INTs

If I gave you those stats without the quarterback’s name, any of you would want that as your franchise quarterback, even the staunchest Dak hater.

Bottom line: they both need to get signed.

I dont care what Amari is asking for, just give it to him. If that means we can't keep Zeke, so be it. a #1 WR is so much more important than a top RB.

I think I'm getting dizzy...

Welcome to the real world Neo. Took the blue pill?

The Dallas Cowboys are reportedly working toward a contract extension with quarterback Dak Prescott that would "approach $30 million annually."

Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported the update Tuesday and noted the Cowboys have made "more progress" toward a new deal with Prescott than with wide receiver Amari Cooper, whose demands have been "shockingly high."

Hill also noted the Cowboys "seem to be nonplussed" about making Prescott the highest-paid player in franchise history.

Welcome to the real world Neo. Took the blue pill?

I wanna slap Morpheus in his pock-marked face.

Not because of Dak, but because of his pock-marked face.

Maybe he should wear larger sunglasses.

There goes the FARM.......

Guy gets a lotta grief despite having saved the franchise the last few seasons.
Pay the man! He has certainly earned his spurs for a relatively smaller salary than some of the guys hauling in tons of cash.

 

[Typhus]

Cooper has the Jones family by the footballs. He is 24 years old and they traded a first round pick for him. He wants to be the highest paid reciever in football. Cooper and Dak will break the bank.

see ya later Zeke.
