Cowboys salary cap $$ is low because they franchised Dez

[Nightman]

absolute worst thing this franchise could do. If that happens we know Jerry is sneaking back into the office and playing King of the hill again.

You really oversell the impact a Romo restructure would have on the cap. We are talking about 2.6m more a year when the cap is going up 10m a year. If there was a list of Top 100 worst moves JJones could make, restructuring Romo's 27m cap hit would be in the high 90s.

Dallas can really use the 13m this year. We have 23 FAs of our own and would like to add a pass rusher or two. Sitting on 20m of cap space would be in the top 10 of the list above.

QBs always get the big guaranteed money. That doesn't change the fact Romo could have got 20m+ on the open market
TSmith only got 22m guaranteed on a 10 year deal. That is a steal in any universe
Free gave money back off his overpay so he could stay, that is my point
I was talking about OScans extension, not his original deal

Dez didn't change the culture, that is silly. They went 8-8 for 3 straight years when Dez got here.
Like I said, if top dollar is the most important thing to Dez he should leave, that is his right.

I'm sure he would leave if the Cowboy sdidn't want him. But the Cowboys undersatnd how important Dez is to this team and I think its silly to expect him to take a pay cut. Does your employer ask you to take a pay cut and you abide by it? Especially when you do your job exceptionally well?

Romo had zero chance of getting more guaranteed money in open market. The guaranteed portion of his contract from Dallas was almost obscene for player who really didn't have any success in playoffs at that time. And it's the reason the team is aggressively refusing to redo his contract because they know its a monolith.

Exactly. Especially at the time he got it.

You just cant talk except in extremes. While the op wished we didnt go through tag stuff, he NEVER SAID dez shouldnt be paid.

So, again I ask you to validate what you said. Bonus points if you can reply without going ape**** extreme again.

The first sentence of this thread is "Dallas is now only 5.84 mil under the cap. Thanks Dez for the loyalty. ".

Where's my bonus points?

Well. Go find another QB then. -- If you find a QB like Romo. You make sure he stays on your team. It is extremely hard to find a good QB. And you cant win without one. Although the Seahags are proving that theory wrong. I dont think Russell Wilson is that good!!! I mean, he is okay.....But I take Romo every time over him.

Good WRs can be found every year in the draft......

You sound crazy. Russell isn't that good? He's just lucked up into 2 Super Bowls two years straight lol.

i said to name a person who says dez shouldn't get paid.

not point out someone frustrated with the system. at this point you'll find your bonus points in romper room cause that's where you seem to be staying.

look, you wanna ignore facts and pull a sentence out and go LOOK THIS PROVES EVERYTHING!!!! all the while going (hey, stop looking at the second sentence!!) that's on you. but i have neither the time nor desire to play mental tennis with someone who didn't even bring a friggin racket.

have a wonderful day.

If you move the goal post back any further you'll be on a different planet.......
