Dak Prescott is the 4th highest paid athlete in the world

[AbeBeta]

Based on salary + endorsements. He makes more than enough endorsement money but he still insisted on being the highest paid player in the NFL. Brock Purdy just agreed to a deal which pays him & million per year less than Dak. Unlike Dan he has been to the Super Bowl. he also drafted and outplayed Dan in the playoffs.

This is not an accurate list. Christian Ronaldo made near $300 mill in salary alone last year. He's got a gazillion endorsements.

I am sure there are a lot of other inaccuracies and half truths here -- so of seems like signing bonus is being treated as a yearly salary. That is going to absolutely skew things for anyone in the first year of a deal.

Also, if you look at the cash value of a deal -- that is the real money without the things that get pushed into the cap, Dak is the 6th highest paid QB in the league.

Don't blame Dak.

Blame the person that offered him that contract.

Oh I blame both of them. Jerry for being dumb enough to give him the contract and Dak who cannot live up to it.

 

[Johannes44]

No, we shouldn't. But.....

You know wthat they say about everything that comes ahead of but?

Teams win games. Teams lose games.

Yea and individual performances or lack thereof in any team sport can and will affect the outcome in those games. No one has stated that Dak Prescott somehow single handedly lost the GB game. It is however stupid to claim that he somehow had no hand it or did not affect the team with his absolutely horrific play.

Lol funny how Allen, Love, and now Purdy all signed after Dak, and they didn't use the excuse of the NFL brotherhood to sign a record deal

Well they all know they are not as good as dak, so they took less !

You’re fooling yourself if you think that if Dak took less, Jerry and Sons would sign better free agents. Cap space isn’t an issue.

 

[DandyDon52]

Dak didn't sign himself, oh yeah Jerry did.

Dak was worth every penny ! ...........to Jones boys. Both of them wanted to keep Dak,
and the only way to keep him was to pay him 60mil !
They were scared to death about letting him go, and then they have to find a new one.

They were really terrified of life without Dak. So here we are.
Other teams just make the move. But not the jones boys, they are slow of mind.Maybe next time lol,
or maybe not !

What if they resign him for even more $ at end of this contract !

..welp, another Dak bashing thread. I dare anyone to say something positive.

He did it for the QB brotherhood

.......oh wait

Absolutely.

Fair on both points

According to Google Cristiano Ronaldo is the highest paid athlete in the world at an estimated $275M and he isn’t even on the list.

 

[MajesticRey]

Crazy how yall find a way to blame Dak (calling him a scammer) when Jones is the real problem here.

If Jerry offered you 132M for cleaning his toilet would you call yourself a scammer too?

On a bright note though he could absolutely dominate the WNBA, except for Caitlyn of course.
