Justin Jefferson/Vikings agree to 4 year/140m extension

Does anyone think the Cowboys don't intend on signing Lamb? That is possible.

If that were the case he should have been traded before the draft. Coming off a 1700 yard season he could have brought us a Tyreek Hill type of return. The worst part about Lamb is his value should only decrease from here.

Micah and Lamb both will get resigned.

If there's anything Dallas does do, it's re-signing their "core" players.
The FO whines about cap space for this exact reason.
Time to give some slices of pie away.

You have to. You can’t avoid it.

Could have avoided it if they signed him before St Brown, Jefferson etc. Instead they like to wait then set the market anyways.

That’s assuming Lamb was willing to sign first though. Ultimately we don’t know if the cowboys tried or not. If his main goal is to maximize his contract there is a good chance he would not have signed early.

Was there not reports that Lamb was waiting for Jefferson to sign?

Frustrating because it was a WR heavy draft also.

Can we put a clause in CeeDee's contract where we fine him if he quits in the 1st qtr of a playoff game again?

I remember that being discussed, idk if those were reliable or not though.

Personally I would believe it but that’s assuming a lot too.

You would think that would prompt this inept FO to move faster so they dont have to reset the market. Jerry is still waiting for Lamb's agent to call him though.

Chances that call happens now are pretty high.

Read Jefferson turned down a 28mil per year deal last offseason.
20% increase for waiting. Even got injured; played great when healthy but still.
Can't blame players for taking that risk till the last year the way the NFL prints money/cap keeps shooting up.

I mean he’s the best WR in the league.

Its not like he wasn’t going to get paid and took a “huge risk”.

It’s like Dak. If your team doesn’t want to pay you max $$$, cool. Somebody else will.

And when Lambs agent asks for more than Jefferson I laugh him out of the room.

Its going to happen. This FO is a joke.

 

[TWOK11]

Already has.

Which is of course what you intended

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Not re-signing Lamb last year was not the best choice, but also not an irregular one.

Not pushing to get Lamb signed early as possible this offseason to avoid the constant market resets that were about to happen was a very poor choice.

But allowing Justin Jefferson to push the WR market to 35m$ a year in June when Lamb could have been signed in February is a detrimental choice.

Even if Lamb doesn’t sign for over 35 this will still heavily impact his price, “I’m not THAT much worse than JJ.”

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Well yeah.

This is a Cowboys forum.

This was posted specifically because the Cowboys have WR that is probably going to be holding out for a contract.

So what you’re saying is normal business procedure here and nothing has changed.

 

[Hadenough]

They were able to afford him after getting rid of Cousins.

Why would Lamb do that though? Why would he sign now? I agree that they should sign them first but I’m looking at Jefferson get hurt and still get this deal so what does Lamb have to lose by waiting?

Why would Lamb sign in February? What incentive did he have?
