Seems like all these players now are wanting 20 mil a year.
17 mil a year is plenty.

Old news. DLaw produces and is a leader on and off the field.

He already making 1717 mil a year is plenty.
Feel more comfortable ?
Last time i heard SJ talk he said signing Lawrence is a top priority. Now they feel "more comfortable". Aha...
And of course they are. The were also with Murray. Up until he demanded 8 mils per anno. After that the feeling in the FO changed ;-).
The only question is can they keep him off the free agent market? The problem is Dallas may have every intention of signing with Dallas but if his agents gets him to go the free agent route any other team can corner him and offer him the bank to sign. The Colts have over $120 million in cap space, they can offer DLaw and absurd contract. So can the Jets and a few other teams. The Cowboys have to assess this market carefully and then franchise him if necessary to keep him another year.
Good.......he deserves it

Cowboys “more comfortable” about long-term deal with DeMarcus Lawrence
Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence played out the 2018 season on the franchise tag, but didn’t have the same upset about that state of affairs that we’ve seen from other players
Not really. The team could easily Franchise Tag him another year.Yep, he has all the leverage in the world.
rumor has it they were so far apart last year that they gave up and let the FT tag ride, how much has the gap closed? the same? I mean he had a really good year but stats wise with the elite PASS rushers having 18-21 sacks and him what 10.5? we needed him against the rams etc and some times late he disappears, this should help some maybe bring him closer to our number then his agents 2018 demands..Yea, no complaints here either.
Curious to see where both sides start out at. Vernon money? Or is he trying for Mack money

I hope they sign him to a long-term deal but they could play that card.
Of the 5 players you need to pay top money to over the next 12 months, he is 5th in importance to your team IMO. So by all means, give him all the monies.
$17m for Lawrence would be team friendly. He's going to get an average of over $20m.17 mil a year is plenty.
Do we know that for sure? Haven't seen/heard anything indicating he would hold out.He'll hold out if they do that, and it would be the right decision (for him).
