It's not just the RB. The malcontent QB and WR want big $$$ as well.
True but the other 2 are in camp and playing, they just have not signed. They also do not have 2 years left on rookie contract.
I think jerry caving to Demarcus L., was the start of this current dilemma, he caved and overpaid over just the threat of holdout.
This is where NE is so superior to Dallas and other teams, they have set the outline of what they will and will not tolerate, and stick to it no
matter what or who.
I think the Amari situation is funny, I and others said at the time it was a bad move to give a 1st for him.
partly cause he was in his last year of R deal so the cowboys would have to pay him quickly. Not like drafting a guy # 1 and get him cheap for 4 years.
Then no one thought about well hey what if he does great, and then demands top wr money on his new contract??
I will admit I didnt see that coming either lol. But now here they are, and they need to sign him after giving up a 1st, so that gives Amari some leverage.
But in closing, all 3 players are wanting too much, they should all be more like Jaylon and willing to sign a deal that is more team friendly.
Amari could be playing in Buffalo or some other crap team. And playing for Dallas puts him in the lime light. He should be able to make a lot in endorsement
money.
Dak, Dallas did draft Dak in the 4th, and who knows, he could have wound up a 6th or seventh round pick or still be fighting for bkup on some other team.
Jones boys dropped Romo to go with Dak also, so Dak could give in a little to get the deal done.
Sadly when the season starts, instead of just enjoying the new season, we will have to hear about this stuff over and over each week , each game.
