Your the one crying about a perfectly thrown ball to our TE for a first down. Nothing to be upset about here. Great play the QB and the TE. This thread is not about signing Shultz to a big money deal. Do you hate Shultz or Dak or just both?
Personally I think they are both great 4th round picks we nailed. Happy to have them on my team. Glad Dak loves Shultz so much. It allowed us the luxury of trading away the overpaid Cooper.
I'm not crying over anything. I just don't see something like this as a reason to pay a meh TE elite money.
I understand why they tagged him for now, but a long term deal? No way.
And please, answer the question.....if Schultz played for another team would they ever CONSIDER giving him a deal in the 4/60 range??
There's a lot to like about the current team, and I'm encouraged accordingly.....but there's massive flaws in the organization overall, and overpaying for players because they drafted them and/or is one of Jerry's buddies is a big part of that.
I'd pay top end money to retain a Kittle or Kelce, not for Schultz. There's a clear skillset difference, and what I'm NOT going to do is offer up some insult that insinuates that you can't see that....because you can.
Take a look at what Tyrone Crawford was paid for being average to below average. Big part of the problem. The philosophy overall is to not pay good players like great ones, but they seem to forget that when it comes to their own.....and more often than not it bites them, and you know that also.
I also don't "hate" Prescott. I think we can win with him if the running game improves, which is tough to do when you're paying top dollar for a TE that can't run block really at all.
I dont dislike Schultz either. I just don't want him here for even half what he is likely to get on the open market because of dump off catch stats. He is kind of guy that will be cut two years into his four year deal. I just don't want that to be us for a few reasons.
