Twitter: Lamb's response to Jerry's "No Urgency" comments

[Chasing6]

You're assuming that Prescott is more interested in winning than he is in getting a big contract. I don't make that assumption.

Is Dak holding out?

 

[Plankton]

Is Dak holding out?

He doesn't need to. He's going to get paid regardless.

 

[Sydla]

He doesn't need to. He's going to get paid regardless.

Then why not get paid playing for a winner?

The assumption that Dak doesn’t care about winning a SB is bizarre.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

A lot of ifs in that statement. During FA, there was little to no chance that Prescott was going to waive it.

To say he wouldn’t have waived it if Lamb had been traded like he should’ve been if they are rebuilt is also a if statement. Guys with no trade clauses have been traded before.

 

[Diehardblues]

Are you here to defend the team or the player? You don't sound like a DALLAS COWBOYS fan. You sound like a PLAYER fan.

Which can be one and the same . You don’t think Lamb deserves to be paid top receiver money.

Or is just greed for anyone wanting Market Value?

It’s not these players responsibility to manage the Cap. If our ownership believes we can’t afford or build a team with such then we move on.

But that’s not on Lamb. He will get paid somewhere just like Prescott. That’s just typical business in the NFL.

Perhaps some fans lose sight the NFL is a business first. It is what it is AC.

It comes down to what’s in the best interest of the Cowboys. Can we afford him or not ? If not we move on and hopefully can get something for him. If not then it’s a huge blunder by our ownership.

Personally I can’t imagine Jethro letting him walk in FA. But anything is possible . Bottomline is Lamb deserves to be paid Market Price.

This assumption is based on what?

 

[Rockport]

LOL. Come on Rocky, use that matter between your ears.

Not without agreement from the player.

People bring this argument up to Dak fans and I don’t get it. You can be a Lamb fan and a Cowboy fan.

What winning team that is a Super Bowl contender was going to trade for him?

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Ceedee is laughing because the deal is probably 96% done. He will get signed. Dak will get 65 mill. And Jerry will have stayed in the headlines again for 6 months without winning or doing anything.

 

[Chasing6]

He doesn't need to. He's going to get paid regardless.

So it is strictly not about money.

 

[Plankton]

Lamb wasn't getting traded. It's a senseless argument.

That's the problem. THERE IS NO CAP FOR A PLAYER'S EVER INCREASING "MARKET VALUE".

The ever increasing "Market Value" keeps surpassing the yearly salary cap. It is unsustainable.

Have guys that did not want to be traded, been traded before? No they have not.

The wheels on the bus go round and round,
the wheels on the bus go round...Soon Dak's bus is gone. He needs the money first, that bus is expensive.

 

[Coogiguy03]

It will not change. This is not a SB team. Maybe a wildcard at best. No reason to cave in. For all we know, Jerry thinks with out CD, Dak's numbers will go down and he will be easier to sign.

Or he thinks Dak will take less, to get CD signed.

Right lol lol lol

Read my response to @Diehardblues . It should hopefully help you understand what my argument is and why.

The owners ultimately have the last word . Can they afford or not. We wouldn’t be the first team to lose top receiver to FA.

Again this is the business of the NFL. Top players bolt all the time for receiving their Market Value .

And as long as someone is willing to pay it , it will continue .

You are so close…..

That's the problem. It's gotten out of control. We can all see it. Those "Market Value" salary cap percentage hits for certain positional players keeps getting higher and higher every year, higher than the team salary cap gets increased.
