Him not being signed long term has NOTHING to do with the cap. It's about guaranteed money. Lamb got 100M, Pickens got 27M. They simply do not want to pay another player that much guaranteed money.
They'll tell you it's hard to pay two players at WR, but again, what's hard about it? If It's not about the cap, what's the problem? They don't want to dish out the money.
Actually it was smart move It does have a little to do with the I mean the money that I'm getting has been pushed couple of times in restructures meaning his dead cap he's already been prepaid a lot of bonus money you can't get rid of him and you're right you can't pick two receivers that kind of money And anybody who's getting angry that Jay didn't sign him early do you remember what happened with players like Russell Wilson was traded for with a lot of resources before he played a snap they handed a ridiculous amount of money, Same with the D.watson.
There's a reason we got George Pickens for a 3rd round pick he came with a reputation he needs to pair and you're not hiding the man that kind of money without seeing it and it's not production on the field alone it is all of it...
The Cowboys never intended to give him a long-term deal after one year regardless of how good was and if he was really that good if he was considered one of the best of the league like he feels he is and he might be,
No team would have hesitated to give what Cowboys would need just two first round picks we go around the league for the last ten years find deals with that all the time tell the Cowboys got two 1st round picks and a player for parsons and then they handed Parsons a $46 million deal, yes, it happens.
People are saying oh poor George didn't get an offer because it was too expensive, it's not, we've seen receivers get handfuls of picks recently all the way back Tyreek Hill, I mean AJ Brown's not in his prime and they got a pretty good haul for him, I mean it wasn't great but it also wasn't nothing, nobody even offered that to the cowboys. Waddle got a nice haul for Miami.
The rules in in place on the tag that you need 2 first round picks to trigger the tag,
but that doesn't mean you can't offer something out in the Cowboys listen he didn't get a single offer of any kind, and that is because of his reputation, whether it's right or wrong or accurate, he's trying to repair his reputation,
so that yes, they would be more comfortable giving him such guaranteed money on long term deal now you're stuck.
And I'm going to refer to just recent history Brandon Ayuk you went through this I hold out God is money got hurt and now he's in a bad place in San Francisco now they gave all this money, and they threw out and ripped off and stuck..
Cowboys are trying to avoid that.. Or the other teams that could be interested they want to see one more year not that he could put up 1200 plus yard and five plus touchdowns, they already know he can do that I want to see him till the company line, be a team player, not creating drama, and that includes during this process,
and so far, so good.
It will be a monumental state to bring a player over like that when you already have see Lamb it's kind of ironic that the Eagles are OK with getting rid of their secret why they under guy that possibly can do the job in Smith I mean Kansas City was OK getting rid of Tyreek Hill they didn't really have anything behind him but it's around here jerry would be stupid to let pick and walk why we still have Lamb,
lamb is still paying very well His earned his contract and he earned his place on this team and he's not leading if it's a choice it'll be pants maybe they'll find a way to keep but I doubt that but the Cowards are going to cut out smell like roses either way they're going to get a lot of pics extra money and they'll get their other receiver in the draft, maybe Flo steps into that roll in 27..
