If Micah takes a team friendly deal, what does this say about Dak

[Coogiguy03]

Does it say that Dak did the right thing sucking all the money he could out of Jerry? Or does it say that Dak really isn't about the team he claims to be about when he's on the podium saying all the "right things!" Maybe Micah will let Dak know about this one day like hey man,I took a team friendly deal bro, you're hurting us from being better! Dak will march to Jerry and will be willing to take a pay cut???

Micah will be the highest paid defensive player ever.

Right this is in the back of my mind, do we really think his agent will be happy with this do we really feel that Jerry will meet his wishes of player acquisitions and being aggressive in it?

Micah can say all he wants but his agent will do his thing. If he doesn’t get top dollar his other clients will balk at that.

This is what Mike’s agent and anyone in the entertainment industry does as well.

Not sure either should be judged based on the actions of others, only their own. Dak took the money route and talked about his responsibility to the fraternity...I'm not a fan of him going that route, but I cant fault him for it, many would have done the exact same, but what's done is done.

The Cowboys will be Dak, Diggs, Micah, and CeeDee.

2 of those 4 will never play a full 17 game season again.

The rest of the team will be filled with nobodies.

Nothing.

It wouldn't reflect on Dak one bit, except on this board. Micah's agent & brethren will look at him sideways.

funny truth!! lol

 

[DeaconMoss]

He is an overpaid loser.

 

[MyFairLady]

We have seen this play out so many times now it is 100% predictable. Parsons will not show up for camp. Jerry will say deadlines make deals. Just before season starts Jerry will make Parsons highest paid defensive player ever. Team will get off to a slow start. Excuse will be Parsons did not have a full camp.

If it doesn't unfold this way I will be completely shocked.

 

[MarcusRock]

It'll say that both men made their own decisions. No one's "better" because they decide to take less, it's merely their decision. What it does is ease the money envy some have about what players make so it's "better" in those folks' eyes for sure.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Micah will be the highest paid defensive player ever.

Yep. I don't believe him for one second that he's willing to take a team friendly deal. His podcast, and "recruiting" methods ("think of the endorsement dollars!!!!") are big time tells on where his head really is.

Maybe he'll surprise me, but I doubt it. I'm too jaded by all things Cowboys to believe in anything other than actions after the fact.

To take it a step further this is literally why one has an agent. You get to say all the nice things while the agent handles getting in the weeds and getting you the most he possibly can. He gets his hands dirty so that you do not have to.

His agent and the NFLPA’s pressure will not allow him to take a team friendly deal even if he wanted to.

His deal affects the next guys deals.

That’s why it’s corny and fake to lie about it the way he is doing and the way Dak did during the offseason.

They think they’re smarter than the majority of the fans. The majority of fans see through it though.

what team friendly deal? let the deal happen first before we declare Parsons a team player.
he is one of the me first guys on the cowboys, which speaks volumes about the team

and btw, the deal was Jerry's fault. he had ALL OF OFF SEASON to get the deal done, but literally waited until an hour before the first game of season to get it signed.
which tells me he really didn't care. he did it for attention. the few million extra to Dak was irrelevant to his goals.

and oh, btw, lets say team friendly. does that mean he signs, lets say fror 55M....now fix this team with the extra 5M you got in your pocket. who you going to get?

btw, this is not a defense of Dak....his agent does all the negotiations and his job as the agent is not to worry about the cowboys. his job is to get the most for his client. he did his job.
this is more about Jerry sucking and being an idiot.

Very very true!!!!!! He'll be at camp remember he didn't go last year, but to get the bag he'll be there he'll be a LEADER, then the NEXT off season he will be back to the Micah we know of not showing up etc

I don't begrudge any person trying to make as much money as someone will pay them, especially in a job where your career can be over in a flash.

how do you know? you just reach back far up and pull this one out? so NFLPA pressured him, but didn't pressure Love or Goff or anybody else. but they pressured Dak specifically.

and what team friendly deal? take 55M? really!!!? this is about 5M. you think this team can be fixed with 5M or even 10M extra on the cap?

not saying Dak is worth 60M or not. but all this other conspiracy driven drivel is just stupid

like what did that do for Jerry to sign the deal like that so late what the hell!!! He probably swore up and down that he did the greatest thing ever
