The Dallas Cowboys and
Dak Prescott are not far apart on the terms of a new deal.
They apparently haven’t been far for a while now. The market is essentially dictating the price to both parties so the average annual compensation and guaranteed cash are basically spelled out.
So contrary to popular belief, it’s not Dak’s outrageous demands or selfishness or greed that’s holding this up.
It’s the length of the deal. Rather than asking for
more Dak’s actually asking for
less. Try that on for size, Dak haters.
Now before we throw him a parade and add him to the Christmas card list, let’s be clear: this isn’t about sacrifice or altruism. This is good business from Dak Prescott’s camp. A short-term deal may offer less overall dollars, but if Dak continues to perform as he’s been, he stands to make considerably more overall getting to the free agent market again as quickly as possible.
That’s where the two parties are at the impasse.
Dak has on the table, we believe, a $35M APY offer with $106M+ g'teed. With an argument about 4 v 5 years. So,
@Boys_Vox 's right – there's no 'disrespect' in that.

Multiple
reliable sources have indicated, for quite a while now, the Dallas Cowboys want to sign Dak to a 5-year deal while Dak wants a 4-year deal. Each day that goes by Dak seems to get a little more leverage so it seems wise to explore what that extra year is worth on the market, right?
