Dak Prescott is a happy man.

Dak Prescott is a happy man.

Probably looking at 5 years 150m by the time he is a FA. And he of course keeps up his play.

Yup, that is what I am thinking as well.

I'm lovin' it. We seen what happened the last time a QB was paid that much coin after ONLY ONE GOOD SEASON.

The only reason he got this big payday is because his middle name is Dallas.

 

[JackOfNoTrades]

uhg, that's not a good comp as a basis a few years from now - i'd think we're hoping to be able to spread some around! :/

The QB gets the big money. That's the way it is.

Carr has had one good season in 2015, a borderline elite season in 2016, and his rookie season wasn't bad. There's nothing stopping him from becoming an elite QB.

what is more important is the steady improvement.

30 mil a year for dak

I suspect Kirk Cousins will be shortly and almost identical to the Carr contract. Matthew Stafford will follow shortly after that and Aaron Rodgers will become the highest paid QB/player ever. Enjoy it while it lasts Carr.

Cousins shouldn't sniff the money Carr got. Cousins is an 18-20 mil/AAV QB. But he's playing hardball, and either the Commanders will cave or some other sucker will bite (Niners, maybe).

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Wow.

The money these guys can make. Unbelievable.

Good for Carr. Get it while you can.

I expect some team other than the Commanders will be paying Cousins that money.
