News: Dak Wants Cowboys To Pay Him ‘Right Behind Mahomes’ - And Pay Him ‘Respect’

[Jake]

It really is about egos: Here's $175 million for 5 years. Nope, I want $160 million for 4 years. Either way, it's generational money.

As for the salary cap, the owners wanted it - not the players. It's up to management to find a way to work with it.

I keep trying to renegotiate my salary by pointing to Mahomes contract. My boss isn’t biting. Any tips?

Yep, I agree with Skip here. Too much $$ for not a top-5 QB in Dak Prescott

It's amazing how Jerry put himself in this position as the fate of the no 1 sports franchise in the world hangs in the balance for a most average QB.
Good Job Jerry and God Speed as I feel we will all need faith to overcome Prescott 666.....

Is it really amazing when you consider all of the on-field success of the Cowboys over the last 25 years with Jerry as GM?

Quitters quit. Easily.

Dak is the one who is quitting on the Cowboys, not me. I want the Cowboys to survive and win. But if Dak and that idiot agent of his are truly demanding the unrealistic numbers being portrayed, then the Cowboys need to tell him to buzz off.
Like I said before I've always liked Dak, but I like the Cowboys more than one overly greedy QB.
Dak is the quitter.

I don’t quit. Ever. How is Dak quitting? Can’t wait to hear this.

At this point—tag and trade him.

unless you give him more than the absurd money he is already along for- that relationship will be solely financial.
For a team as poorly managed as this one, your franchise qb has to be all in.

Hire Todd France.

If Dak refuses to sign for less than a stupid, ridiculous price, then Dak is quitting the Cowboys.
If Dak wants to be a Cowboy, all he has to do is sign a "fair" contract. Otherwise, start walking.

 

[kumizi]

its boils down to his naivety of the situation. Greed has gotten in the way of logic. Mostly by the agent. Dak painted himself into a corner.

It's the Cowboys that have painted themselves into a corner. They either have to bow down to Todd France or be without a QB. Dak's side has all the leverage.

What is a “Stupid ridiculous price?”

I agree 100% with Skip as much as it pains me to say I agree with Skip.

why do they have to do that? There are other options. Dak is not bigger than the Cowboys

If he's demanding #2 money right behind Mahomes to the tune of 40-44 mil a year that's stupid ridiculous. Dak is a good QB, but he's not the 2nd best QB in the league, and he's not worth Mahomes money. Ha, Mahomes isn't even worth Mahomes money, but at least Mahomes has a couple of Super Bowls on his resume. All Dak has is Todd France.
The Cowboys need enough cap space after paying their QB to rebuild their defense and maintain their Oline unless Dak is going to play defense as well as QB.

 

[lockster]

Mahomes long-term deal averages $45 million per year. So the $40-$44 mil the Prescott camp wants doesn't surprise me, and shouldn't surprise many.

And that's why Russell is being traded. Seahawks want yobwin

 

[lockster]

nyet = no!!! do svidaniya = Goodbye

I knew the no, but didn't know the goodbye word

one thing Dak might be finding out about Jerry and family..they hold grudges and hold onto spite for a very long time. Dak may already have 1 foot out the door. ALL sides better cool off and get this done within reason.

I think most rich ppl. Do. They get use to being treated like God's. I use to live with some friends of mine who were billionaires in the summertime between college semesters, and I don't think they intentionally think I'm above others, but eventually, that's how they think and act. They expect you to act like ?? The driver in the movie.. driving miss Daisy. But way less mouth and opinions. Lol
