I'm starting to look at the negotiations a little differently..
Sure, there's an impasse, but assuming they play in 2020 and assuming (again) a long term deal isn't done, Dallas can tag Dak again in 2021, meaning around 68 mil in two years. Not necessarily a sign that the FO is willing to move on from Dak. And as for Dak, not a bad chunk of change for a couple of seasons for someone "without a contract".
I'm willing to see how this plays out. Heck, if there's no 2020 season, than Dallas looks *real* smart because (a) the salary cap will plunge and (b) they can franchise him in '21 and '22 instead of '20 and '21.
Back to my original question...can he be franchised again for a 3rd straight year? Dak will be pushing 30 by then: we'll know how expendable he is (...or not).
