Twitter: Jori Epstein: Cowboys want $40M Dak Prescott to elevate those around him

Count on it as the bus is loading up with the old and bringing in the new for the next 2 seasons!

He'll play out his contract and get another as a Cowboy.

If the offense got worse....who bears responsibility? I get injuries. But things like penalties and play calling....well that is coaching. From Moore right on up to Jones.

Not sure why you are protecting Moore...in charge of the offense that you say "got worse".

Not protecting him Moore has his issues too….

He elevated Gallup and Wilson…like what else do they want? They keep using his salary as a excuse maybe they need a new cap guy but at the same they have 20 million right now and are holding on to it.

Cooper played his best in Dallas, JS..

Sure because there’s a long list of Superbowl champs with terrible lines and average weapons….

A lot of this season is going be about whether CeeDee is going to deserve huge contract extension when it’s time and whether Dak is worthy of a third contract. He’ll be wanting close to $50 million per the next time around.

Thats when you truly have to determine who your franchise players are, Im never letting Parsons leave, I pay him whatever he wants.
If we can afford both than fine, but Dak can walk if it means keeping a real franchise player, even at LB.

He's making excuses for losing already.

The Cowboys may not use the OL as an excuse no matter how bad it is. Cincinnati’s OL was terrible last season getting Joe Burrow sacked repeatedly but he still got his team to the Super Bowl and Ja’Marr Chase had a spectacular rookie season. The Cowboys are going to have some big decisions they’re going to have to make in the coming seasons with CeeDee, Parsons, Diggs and Dak. All of them will be looking to break the bank.

Indeed so get those tissues ready for the crying.

I wonder if this is her opinion or something she's hearing in league circles.

If he could have,
He would have.

Keeping Parsons and leaving ourselves without a QB means we’ll be picking in the top 10 every year. The Cowboys would go absolutely nowhere without a viable QB. You simply can’t compete in the NFL these days without a top-notch QB which is why they make so much money.
