Twitter: Mahomes extension underway

[conner01]

Is it really possible to regret getting paid 35 million per year?

And that’s pretty much what I see him getting no matter what mahommes does

 

[Redball Express]

If Dak want Mahomes money win a SB. I still offer him the 35. If anything Watson contract may reset the market for him.

I have no clue how Mahomes or Watson set anything for Dak.

Houston has nowhere near the talent Dallas has for Dak.

Mahomes is light years better than Dak ever will be.

Dak would have to have a football reinvention to match either QB.

So that just lowers his value, not raise it.

People are so crazy to me. Not everybody's that way, but still.

I compare Watson more to Dak. But i believe Watson is a better thrower of the ball.

Some people have this stupid idea of next man up sets the market. If this was really true why didn't Tannehill, Wentz or Goff get more than Wilson.

Watson doesn't have the running game or offensive line Dallas has. You put Watson on the Cowboys with this supporting cast and we would all be wearing hats saying Dallas Cowboys SB champions.

I agree.

Probably the best comparison I have seen, Dak is a poor mans Watson, but just barely.
Watson, Wilson, both so much better.

I agree with Mahomes but Watson isn't way much better than Dak. At the very least they are even but Watson has enjoyed having a top 3 receiver and a very good defense. This year will show what Watson can do without Hopkins and we also get to see if Cobb has a better season then last year with Dak.

50 million and worth every penny

The real question is, and will be,, which franchise first steps up to correct the run away franchise QB price?
If you are so lucky, fortunate to have a Mahomes as your QB, than you set the market, he is the best QB in the league, hands down.
The burden is on teams like the Cowboys with QBs like Dak, with pending contracts.
Huge margin when comparing talent.
Small margin when comparing contracts.
That's the issue for an FO when you have to construct a team to compete in a league in which every team is held to the same Cap standards.
That's why I SMH at those that are willing to pay anything because they just want a deal in place for a starting QB.
Dak is a starting QB in this league... should he be the starting QB of the Dallas Cowboys.. is that the level we are at now?

 

[glimmerman]

Hopefully he just accepts the 35 million. Give him good guaranteed money and let’s get to camp and get better this year. With a better ST that helps us start drives past our 20 or 25 yard line we will have more success. Maybe a punt returner that gets us some yards and a kicker that don’t miss half the time. That will help us put points on the board. A Defense that stops some teams and don’t give up 3rd and longs and stay on the field. That alone drive me nuts. But put that stuff together and Dak will be just fine...

Dak is an ABSOLUTE idiot if he wants to compare himself to Mahomes, he is deslusional and just simply stupid

I think its more his agent trying to get every dollar.

Becuz their owner is not using their QB signing to get more buzz.

Jerrah wants this to last to keep the team in the headlines during this pandemic where nothing football is in the news.

That might be far fetched to some. But Jerrah is the modern Ringling Bros of football.

This will end come July 15. Dalton will be starting and Dak will remain a hold out.

Its coming.

Without bothering to dig up a recent post of yours,, did you just flip?

No question here.

Every year with Dak we have to specifically work on some aspect of his game he needs to improve to get him to the next level.

It's fine if you are planning to take 7 years to groom him.

But most of our cap is set to win now.

Watson would go off like a Roman Candle in Dallas under McCarthy. Big Mike would quickly think him and Rodgers in GB was just a nightmare.

You think so. I think JJ is for sure dragging it out.

I think the guaranteed money is all that’s left. JJ will throw a couple million more on the pile and the deal will be done. On or around 15th. It will be a big signing at the star or the ranch. Maybe even in the yacht.

Only other scenario is that he signs his tag and shows up. No way he is gonna give Dalton a chance to start or give MM a reason to be mad at him and want to start Dalton.

If his agent tells him to hold out when camps start then he is destroying Daks career. He already has him losing money after not negotiation a deal last year. If he pulls a Elliot then he may not be playing this year.

All true.

But apparently what we never knew before but know now..

Dak is a drama queen.

He likes to have controversy.

His dinner party shows this.

His practicing despite laws against doing so make it obvious.

He does not wear a mask.

People have to look at reality.

Dak is not the leader we hoped he would be.

He is more of a rebel if you ask me.

Hey pard..

I agree.

If the HC and the staff are good enough, then the QBs are a bit interchangeable. A good system will make a lesser QB a better QB.

This is where Dalton is a wildcard.

My suspicion is than being out of Cincy will be like fertilizing a flowering plant.

Boom. Flower everywhere.

He has been injury free all of his career and should have tons of experience from the AFC.

The AFC is way more wide open than the NFC tends to be. The championship teams there know how to score AND play defense.

Having Dalton is a big advantage over a middling Dak who is up and down now ever since 2016.

Experience at this level is more desirable than potential.

Just my thoughts.

I am not defending him.

He has made some not so smart choices. I heard he said he didn’t have more than 10 people at the party but I think it was total lock down in Texas at the time.

He is letting his agent handle the business. But I lost a little respect for him when he said there should be plenty of money for everyone to get paid. He should have kept his mouth shut.

We all saw what Elliot did. If he choses that path then it’s a very bad look for a QB as a leader. And on the field I think he is a good leader.

He has to learn to be a leader off the field as well. Your looking at kids about to be paid millions of dollars and they have agents that are telling them how to handle themselves.

I think most of the player understand what he is doing. They all have to go through it at some point. The better you are the harder you have to negotiate.

oh tay.

Dak reminds me of this guy.

He tries to come off as serious but he is just too funny.

I laugh at Dak anymore.
