Dak's No Trade Clause

It's pretty inevitable that Jerry is going to extend Dak. Between his 2023 cap hit being untenable and being able to cite two playoff births and one win (I know it's not good enough for us but it is for Jerry) since signing the deal, it's going to happen. I don't know much about the contract process but I'm curious if they can nix that no trade clause when they do an extension/restructure, or does it stay in automatically?

I guess it's pretty counterintuitive to think that Jerry would trade Dak when he will almost certainly extend him, but it would be nice if the FO at least had the option, especially if they can somehow luck into a good QB in the draft since it sounds like QB will finally become a priority in the draft again. I do think that the second Jerry has any sort of a health scare that we may see the urgency to win ramp up considerably and he may actually consider trying to upgrade at the QB position, especially if we have another one and done playoff year. Or maybe just wishful thinking on my part.

Dak needs to be extended and his no trade clause needs to be taken out, I agree with that.

If your going to spend some 40m-50m on a player, it needs to be YOUR asset that you can trade if you choose.

But again, we all know this will never happen.

And yes, upgrading to an ELITE level QB like mahomes or Burrows is wishful thinking. Despite what some of you may think "upgrading" isnt something you just go and do. Its almost near impossible to do.

We don't need an elite QB like Mahomes or Burrow.

We just need consistent QB play that is at a decent enough level. If we had that against San Fran we win easy.

Dak doesn't provide that.

IF Dak is extended for 5 or 6 years then Jerry and Co will deserve the failure they receive in return.

i was thinking about this today. What iF Dak took a pay cut ALA brady and others to field a better team around him say 4 years 25 mil per season at 100m GUARANTEED at 25m a season fully guaranteed he's set for next 4 years IF he wins superbowl in 4 years with good team around him he can negotiate again at 34 years old break the bank and if he does not he's made 200m+ over course of this Career Not to mention the other millions he's made off endorsements. put in a Trade Clause where Dak can Opt out if team does not spend the cap to fill a team around him.

Another ignorant fan who blames every loss only on the QB.

Ah yes, the mythical "consistent QB who isn't elite."

Name names. Who do you have in mind?

I especially loved your earlier gameplan for moving on from Dak: "DRAFT THE NEXT PATRICK MAHOMES!"

BRILLIANT! Why didn't we think of that before!?!??

If you can prove that I said "draft the next Mahomes" and not "You'll never draft the next Mahomes if you handcuff yourself to Alex Smith (You know an example)" I'll delete my account and never post agian.

If you don't prove it then you delete yours?

You twist words too much. Deal?

Jerry and Stephen are fully invested in Dak. He’s marketable as heck and just won man of the year. He’s gonna be here for another 6 years or so barring a massive nosedive or career threatening injury.
Truth, for better or worse.

Derek Carr was just released. Wait until There is that thread, :laugh:

Because he said he would not accept any trades.
If this was Jerry…whoa….

No I am not saying bring in Carr.

I paraphrased your sheer ignorance, pardon me.

You also never followed up when I asked, "Did the Chiefs move on from Alex Smith BEFORE OR AFTER they drafted Mahomes and saw what they had in him?"

Probably because you realized how dumb your argument was, so you clamped right up. LOL!

But back to my question in THIS thread: Who are these "consistent but not elite" QBs in the NFL today?????

NAME NAMES! Don't be a coward.
