MMQB: How Cowboys’ Dak Prescott Can Benefit From Waiting to Negotiate His Contract

What reports? The spin job put out by the club after the fact?

Well the spin job is all we have. I didn’t hear anyone from Watkins camp refute those spin jobs.

You’re losing me. I’m saying he’s getting 2 million he’s owed regardless.

I already tried to explain this to him, but he wasn't getting it lol.

We also have nothing solid of substance from the statements. Show me one article that has actual figures about what the offer was. I dare you.

Just doing some quick math here:

I can pay him $2 million for 2019.

Tag him at $28 million for 2020.

Tag him again at let's say $35 million for 2021.

So I would have him for the next three years for a total cost of $65 million. An average of less than $22 million a year.

Why the heck would I want to sign him to a long term contract paying him in excess of $30 million a year?

bingo, you win I don't see any reason to pay him until there is no doubt as to what he is.

Certainly not if the team doesn't get some manner of a discount for doing it.

Go google Stephen Jones comments about it.
