Meanwhile back at the ranch.

Yay, more dak. Get ready for perennial wildcard losses for the foreseeable future.

But team sources tell CowboysSI.com that part of the construction of the deal, when executed, will give Dallas about $16 million in 2022 cap relief.


Hey, that might be enough to retain Randy Gregory.

Pass rushers dont grow on trees!

Cowboys!

Technically that still leaves you 5 million over the cap. Once they likely cut Cooper, Jarwin, Greg, and Brown though they should have a little money to work with. If they tag Schultz though which supposedly they will if they cannot come to a deal that will eat up almost all of it (except what you need to sign draft picks).

Like it or not it's not that surprising if a move. Just hope that by the end the cap is grows high enough that the charge isn't that large of a percentage of cap if they have to move on from him.

 

[jwooten15]

Man, I’m be so mad if they use this relief and sign back 95% of the 2021 team. If Jerry and the organization truly see this team and championship caliber, we are all doomed

 

[csirl]

We should sweat the contract and cut ties after '23 season.

I really hope they don’t waste that much money on Schultz. He’s cool and all, but not gonna be worth the high-end TE salary. There are a handful of really solid TE prospects that we can draft in the middle rounds and they could contribute year 1

 

[JBS]

Don’t let 30 years of consecutive failure convince you. This board legit thought after Dak left , this team would take the next step. Idiots.

 

[Risen Star]

Yay, more dak. Get ready for perennial wildcard losses for the foreseeable future.

As long as he points to the sky I'm okay with it.

Leadership.

Kool

Go Cowboys!

Nfl should addopt a luxury tax idea like the nba that allows you to go over the cap to resign your own players if you want. Not my money but it pretty safe to say that the Cowboys can afford to pay the tax bill to go over. Don’t abuse it though

Why would any businessman do that? If anything the nfl learned from the nba what not to do. That luxury tax idea has cost the nba billions.

 

[Frosty]

Kick that can!



(He's presently scheduled for "zero'' salary in the final year of his contract, when he's 33. This move will change that.)

‘Change that’. As in add even more to the $13.2 million they will already be paying in 2025 to not even have him under contract.

The team just digs those holes deeper and deeper.

it’s the same thing Jerry Jones did with Tony Romo’s contract. What’s the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Jerry Jones will never learn a new way of doing business. It’s the Cowboy way. It didn’t work back then and likely not gonna work with Dak. When will they try a new approach

I would completely agree. I look at Kelce last year getting 14m and Mark Andrews this year getting 14m and think "ya you are not even in the same breath as those players" and the ink isn't even dry on the Mark Andrews deal.

ill bet heavily that Amari is back and Schultz is gone

The tax goes back into the nba and is divided among the league. It help funds the wnba

 

[Diehardblues]

We’re set for years with Dak. Jethro will be pushing 85 by then as oldest GM in American professional sports history and we’ll be way over 30 years since a championship.

 

[ShortRound]

We have more money than sense

 

[Frosty]

We have more money than sense

Let me correct you a bit….Jerry Jones has more money than sense.

 

[Bigdog]

So he is giving money back due to the poor performance he shown in the playoff game, lol.

 

[slick325]

Brace yourselves, Prescott will be signing an extension or a new deal in Dallas within the next year or two.

Cowboys!
