Is Dak Tradeable?

[Rayman70]

I'm not a let's trade Dak guy. In fact, he's been very good. But is it time to think about putting feelers out to see if we have any takers? To gage his value? I mean, we are sitting there already with premium picks, why not stockpile more? I think he has 2 years left on his deal. Is that contract something a team is willing to take on? I'm thinking maybe we should start over at QB now, since we are in transition mode. Give me your thoughts.

No one, and I mean no one is going to trade for Dak without Dallas eating the majority, probably all, of Dak’s contract, similar to when Russ was traded to Pittsburgh from Denver.

Outside of that, no one will want him and we wouldn't get a lot of picks for him, either. I don't think other FOs value Prescott nearly to the level Jerry does.

We are sink or swim with Dak when it comes to being on the field and managing the cap. I honestly think his contract is in the argument for worst NFL contract ever. The FO did literally nothing to offset his cap hits to maximize windows of opportunity to win a SB. Nothing, while also overpaying for him relative to his impact on a football game.

No one is touching Dak, or that contract, without a level 1 hazmat suit. It's radioactive as hell.

No.

Nobody wants his contract and he has a no trade.

We’re more likely to extend him than ever see him play for a different team.

Dak Prescott's current contract with the Cowboys, signed in September 2024, is a
4-year extension worth $240 million, averaging $60 million per year, making him the highest-paid QB in the NFL at the time, with $231 million guaranteed. This deal ties him to Dallas through the 2028 season, following his previous $160 million contract from 2021.

Key Details of the 2024 Extension:

• Total Value: $240 Million over 4 years (2025-2028).
• Average Annual Value (AAV): $60 Million.
• Guaranteed Money: $231 Million.
• Signing Bonus: $80 Million.

Context:

• Prescott signed this extension just before the 2024 season, adding to his previous deal.
• The $60 million AAV surpassed deals from other top QBs like Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence at that time.

so no he isnt tradeable

 

[Rayman70]

Not even a team as desperate as say Cleveland? They have shown multiple times they are willing to pay

Ok ty for that.

3 years left on his deal and trading him would make you eat around $130m in cap space. That contract is simply horrific.

Jeebus that IS awful.

 

[Vtwin]

I bet the Colts would trade Rivers for Dak straight up. Assuming Jerry ate Dak's contract.

That's the best I can do.

 

[tomokawan]

Dak is not the problem. Let's talk about the real problems.

Why would Dak agree to drop his no trade clause to go to a dumpster fire like Cleveland?

 

[Cmac]

That's the thread today???......are people actually watching games? Was there ever a pass defended last night? If this game were played in mud.....McCarthy's uniform only gets dirty because he ran for positive yards.....nothing else.

 

[MisterWaffles]

The chances of Jerry accepting the cap hit that would come with such a trade are zero and less than zero, if that's possible. Plus, Jerry needs to sell more jerseys and such to keep piling up his money, and he needs at least one or two marquee names on the squad to help with that. That truly is Jerry's thinking, I believe.

 

[Captain-Crash]

He needs better players to carry him.

The hardest thing to get is a good quarterback. show you want two quarterbacks in the bush

Can’t.. no trade clause unless Dak wants out..

But Dallas is a QB dreams, particularly with endorsements and as long as the team is relevant.

 

[Big D]

We need to trade Jerral.

I know. Which is why I framed the question this way. Because if you get it wrong, your looking for a good QB for 10 years or more.

 

[Rayman70]

We need to trade Jerral.

For what ? A bucket of used tampons?
