Don't let Jerry tell you he spends money

[Sydla]

It’s false.

Cowboys are typically at the bottom of actual cash spending year after year.

Jerry is Cheap

We already knew winning wasn't the priority here. If this year doesn't sum things up for the fans, nothing ever will.

100%. The dead cap space is a feature not a bug with the Jones system.

Does dead cap not get paid? I always thought the players got that money.

 

[5Stars]

They do. Someone was saying, and I could be wrong with the numbers, but I think I heard that the Cowboys still owed or still do, Zeke 6mil still and that he should come back to the Cowboys for the vet minimum and earn it.

Not after they were released.

 

[JBS]

Not after they were released.

Yes. Dead cap is money already paid to the player

 

[1942willys]

They could spend more money on the facilities, scouting department, etc but choose not to do so

 

[HungryLion]

Zeke playing here for vet minimum would hurt the offense. No thanks.

 

[1942willys]

this has nothing to do with the cap

 

[Aven8]

What do birds say when they fly over the Star?

Cheap, cheap, cheap…….

 

[JW82]

Yes. Dead cap is money already paid to the player

And when you sign bad deals you are still paying against the cap for players that are no longer on the roster. They still pay one of lowest actual cash to their payroll then almost any team.

Correct. Biggest franchise in the world. Operate like they’re an xfl team

That "article" is silly.

Cap Hit and Cash Spent on a player eventually add up to the exact same number.

Example Romo:

Cap Hit Total
While on the team: 107.820 Million

Dead Money after departure: 19.600 Million

107.82M + 19.6M = 127.42M

Total Cash Spent on Romo:
127.42 Million

It's the same number!

 

[Shinaoi]

This is where we should have an advantage

 

[Sydla]

It’s more telling than the cap.

It shows the Cowboys have largely been cheap over the last decade.

 

[khiladi]

false again

Really irrelevant.. Jerry is the owner. He signs off on everything..
