Good vid.. Sounds like they think some team like Miami could get stupid and offer Cooper tons of money.
So pay a mediocre player because a good one will get paid more in a few years?If Dak will take $35MM/year, I don't know what they are waiting for. Once Mahomes gets a deal, the price is probably north of $40MM/year.

LOL, your avatar says it all.So pay a mediocre player because a good one will get paid more in a few years?
It doesn't seem like Patrick is in a hurry to sign a deal.If Dak will take $35MM/year, I don't know what they are waiting for. Once Mahomes gets a deal, the price is probably north of $40MM/year.
I said a year ago that the Cowboys should have tied up Dak with a $30-$32 mil/year contract for 4 years, but I was called stupid. Well, time proves who was right once again. You get greedy (disrespectful) with your stud franchise QB, you pay the price.What s difference a year makes.
About this time in 2019, we were debating whether Dak was worth as much as $22mil-$25mil — with some “radicals” opining he might be worth $25-$28mil.
I usually avoid hindsight but, looking back, we coulda probably tied him up at $28-$29mil for 3-4 seasons (@Kirk Cousins money) a year ago.
Que sera, sera.
Mahomes is gonna make a shipload of guaranteed $$ no matter what.It doesn't seem like Patrick is in a hurry to sign a deal.
Im sure the Titans were irrelevant without their starter...our offense is too stacked to be irrelevant, but we know without a QB and defense we wont get a ring. With Dak and no defense we can all mostly agree there's no championship in sight. No matter how much support dak has on offense we need a defense. Why limit ourselves? If we find someone better at QB maybe we can get away with less on defense, because it appears defense is going to be average/below average yet again.Pay a quality starter because without him you are irrelevant for the next 5-7 years while you try to find another.
They messed this up when they did not offer 36m at the start of last year. Now he is in a position where he will average more than 36 or 37 million, depending on game 17, so now to get him to sign longer you need to go to 40m. They played themselves and now they are at risk of being in the worst position in the NFL in 2 years: being a team without a QB.
Clearly....you are big on Dak. Dak is the Jason Garrett of QBs. If EVERYTHING is right...he can guide you to some wins. SEVERAL QBs could have gone 8-8 last year. And spare me with Daks numbers. I watched the games and I've watched football for a long time. I have a good read on who Dak is and who he is not. And you have to have to many things around him be perfect for Dak to elevate a teamPay a quality starter because without him you are irrelevant for the next 5-7 years while you try to find another.
