Well, again, I've explained this. In fact, I think I explained it twice again, earlier today in a post but here goes. I don't believe Dak is worth 35. I think that this is what Jerry has already offered and I think it's still on the table so that's where that number comes from. Let me just take that a step further and again, I've explain this point twice before today as well, a deal for 35 AAV already exceeds the cap percentage, based on the 13% total cap allotment to the QB. 35 represents about 20%, each mil you add to that just takes you more and more into the red. At some point, that's gonna cost you players that can contribute to the team. It just compounds the problem so I don't really see how anybody can look at this and say, well, you've already screwed up your cap by committing so much of your cap to the QB so why not just double down and screw it up even more? I mean, that's pretty much what you are doing there. I don't see the wisdom there.
I don't really want to get into the compensation on a trade because I feel like that's a thread all on its own. It will just detract from this discussion but yeah, lets get multiple picks. I would not try and move up in this draft because it would be way too expensive and we need multiple players on the Defensive side of the ball. The only way Dalton and hopefully a young QB is successful is if they come to a team that is really solid to begin with. Bringing in good young talent accomplishes that for you. But again, I see a young Trey Lance there at 10 and there is nothing not to love about that kid if you are a fan of Dak Prescott. If you get real lucky, maybe Wilson slides and then I think you hit the jackpot. That kid can do it all IMO. You put him behind a good line, a decent running game, give him targets to throw at and a Defense that can be, at least respectable, and I think that kid can give you a chance to win some games. He's probably gone before our pick but still, that's kinda how I see it.
