Cowboys’ Deadline Deal With CeeDee Lamb Lives Up to Their Reputation
Now we’ll see what happens with QB Dak Prescott and head coach Mike McCarthy. Plus predicting what happens with receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Brandon Aiyuk.
Deal
Despite what seemed to be interminable contract negotiations with CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott, the Cowboys were very much on brand in these negotiations.
Every team has a reputation and a résumé that is (or should be) known by every agent entering into negotiations with them. Similarly, every agent and agency has a reputation and résumé that is (or should be) known by every team negotiator. For the Cowboys, that reputation is to wait until the deadline—whatever that may be—and then pay the player a top-of-market contract. This is the ultimate “deadlines spur action” contract with a “deadlines spur action” team.
