Dalton has nothing to do with Dak's future, but you can pretend it does.
Dak will be signed long term regardless. You can bet that whatever success Dalton has, Jones will rightfully be thinking that it would have been even more with the much better Dak at the helm.
Cowboys tried for almost 2 years to get a deal done and couldn't, the only way a deal gets done now (after the injury) is if it's a team friendly deal that would allow the Cowboys to get out of it should Dak continue to have issues with the ankle after he returns or if he just isn't the same player (football is a business and the Cowboys know that). Dak may get the exclusive tag next year again but even that is a bit of a long shot if the cap goes down (as reported) to approx 175m, i think Dak (unless he signs a team friendly deal) gets the transition tag next year and the Cowboys will see what offers he may get and go from there, if they want to match great and if not they will take the picks
