DLaw looking for 6 years, $140 mil with $85 garuanteed

[baltcowboy]

Because he’s a defensive end pass rusher. Guys like Khalil Mack and Von Miller play all over the field. Lawrence just offers us pass rushing ability and that contract doesn’t warrant that.

The Cowboys have offered 20 million. He is getting paid.

Pinche DLaw mamon!!!!

Exactly, tell 'em No mames guey!

 

[CF74]

He wants to get as much moolah as he can. That's probably not with us. At least I hope not.

Yeah I doubt we ever give anybody that much guaranteed money.. It seems like he just wants to be released...

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I firmly believe that this is the Cowboys "leaking" these numbers out. Public negotiating tactics.

yep, they know that opinion will turn against the player, they are greasing us for a trade

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Not a bad idea, they're probably tired of hearing "pay the man" by a bunch of mathematically challenged fans. Those fans should have no problem with the old Booger, who did exactly that

or they are greasing us for a bad trade

 

[atlantacowboy]

Rescind tag. Let him negotiate in the open market with a bum shoulder. His agent will come begging for the offer they already rejected.

My only question is would DC get back what the Raiders got for K.Mack????? I DON'T!

Then WHY pay him like K.Mack?

 

[Johnny23]

He could care less who they keep. No player in the NFL cares about that. Brady is the only player giving a hometown discount but that was because he had no choice.

Technically he doesn't take home rlto discounts he gets his money in thr long run. He constantly has had his deals reworked plus he's married to Giessel.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

It does. But they look at it as they failed with him......they’ll try to overcome his departure if they have to.

Just like they did with the WR's when Dez left. They'll try to fix it as they go along. lol

 

[DIAF]

I was all for paying DLaw a bunch of money but 6/140 with that shoulder?

I hope he gets his payday. I just hope it isn't here. If he keeps increasing his salary demands, it makes me believe that he really doesn't want to play here.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

The Cowboys have offered 20 million. He is getting paid.

Yeah 20 million ok. That contract he wants? Probably not.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Just like they did with the WR's when Dez left. They'll try to fix it as they go along. lol

Exactly. And will look stupid doing it too.

 

[JoeKing]

Rescend the tag Jerry and show this fool the door. The 20 million saved by doing so can buy ample replacement for that fool.

 

[Verdict]

Let him sit until Week 10 and save 12m and get him back for the Playoffs

I have been thinking that is a possibility.

 

[Fwed]

If I was Jerry Jones I would definitely tell tank that we are trying to keep the core players together..he will definitely take a discount If we tell him that

LOL what on god's green earth makes you sure he would give a discount for that.

 

[Nightman]

LOL what on god's green earth makes you sure he would give a discount for that.

It is called being a leader and teammate......not just a mercenary

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

This is why you trade people when their value is high.

 

[TheSkaven]

If the guy wants to sit out part of the season (or the whole season for that matter) fine. The Cowboys can take his money and roll it into next years cap.

He’s not going to sit out. He’ll sign the franchise offer on September 2nd, get the surgery done September 3rd, and because the recovery time is three months, he’ll go on IR, collect his $20 million, and hit free agency next year.

Jerry clearly miscalculated. He didn’t think Tank’s agent would gun for Mack type of money.

If we rescind the tag and he signs with someone else, do we still get the comp pick?
