It's not up to the Cowboys though. You have to have a willing negotiation partner to make a deal. To this point, Dak's camp is not at the table. They want to wait until Jerry tags Dak to get serious at making a deal.

You do realize Stephen said today that they...the team...is waiting on the CBA.

"Jones said there is no scenario in which the Cowboys would move on from Prescott in 2020."

If Stephen actually said this, we have two of the best backward bargainers in the league running this team. What's the purpose of all this stalling if there is no scenario in which you move on?

You big dummy! You just admitted you're going to cave in to his demands. Call the agent already. Ask him what he wants, sign it, and be done with it.

I don't want them negotiating any hostage releases for me! They'd end up paying the hostage takers after they killed me!

translates to ZERO means squat they dad all this last off season and have made dak several Fair offers and he and his agent are holding this up, surr they prefer it because then they are free to use the FT on JOnes or Cooper... right now all this is in limbo holding things u but for sure not all on the jonses , what we all prefer and what actually happens are typically two very different things..

They made one offer that was 6 years and 20 million less in guaranteed money than what Goff got.

You don't move on from a franchise QB, worst case - you sign & trade him so there's no sense in devaluing him in any way.

I wonder if the Jones boys are trying to let Dak know they want him, while also letting him know they aren't happy with the agent for upping the price last year.

I wish people would READ the article. Jones says....

"I mean, Dak's our quarterback. He's our quarterback for the future and we have nothing but the greatest respect for him," Jones said. "He's a competitor. He's won a lot of football games for us. Obviously, he, like us, we all want to take that next step and get into a championship game and get to the big game and ultimately win a championship. So there's no thoughts like that."

You're way out there if you see anything other than that.

:hammer:

I don't know why they bother negotiating. They should just hand Dak's agent the cooperate check book and tell him to fill in the numbers.

They are going overboard if that's the case. Stephen was quoted last month saying they had an agreement last year, but before it was signed, Dak's people changed the numbers.

Ever think they could be waiting for the new CBA deal to get done? Instead of this whole story youre piecing together in your head?
