Mort: Dak contact hold up? Cowboys want 5 years, Dak want 4

[CowboyRoy]

Greedy in the sense that he forced the team to use their only franchise tag on him for this crap. Dak should have signed it, then ask for another contract after his 3rd year.

Why dont the Cowboys just give him the 4 years that he wants?

 

[ShortRound]

That's it? That's the hold up?

 

[Miller]

Screw that. Stick with 5 and make it a point. At this point he is tagged. See what happens.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

Hell just simply make the damn 5th year voidable IF we reach NFCCG within the 2 years.

Exactly, great idea. Or go with a player 5th year option or something

 

[basel90]

Hope he goes away , do us a favor and go to another team and let them pay . We know what you can do , and it ain’t much .

 

[Eanwen]

That's it? That's the hold up?

I feel I'm in Groundhog Day. I thought it was well known the issue was years not dollars.

 

[CowboysFanSince88]

Seems kinda silly if that's the hold up. Bottom line, for better or worse, he's going to be the Cowboys QB for at least the next 4 years.

really? now im depressed

Ya, Cooper Rush!

 

[Teague31]

What a cluster

 

[basel90]

Ya, Cooper Rush!

Can’t be worse . Plus we have white and the draft . Let’s build the defense

A player option doesn't help the situation when it's the team wanting the 5th year.

 

[Kingofholland]

How about a 1 year deal instead Dak? You like betting on yourself so why not another year?

 

[Sydla]

OK.

4 years.

But you get less guaranteed money than Wentz or Goff.

 

[cheftjpeck]

I still say
3 years fully guaranteed
4th year team option
5th year player option
Avg 34.5 year for first 3 fully guaranteed
37 for 4th (team option only 12 million guaranteed $25 million option if on team at begin new league year then fully guaranteed )

5th year player option 40 million / not guaranteed if team elects out before play ops in

Total fully guaranteed 115.5
Optional guaranteed could be as much as 65 mill more

It's funny. For years, some people have said or implied Jerry Jones would finally see the light and dump Prescott. Now, in the midst of a contract negotiation, it appears Jones wants to commit to Prescott longer than Prescott wants to commit to Jones.

oh the irony

 

[Whyjerry]

IF and IF this is true, BOTH needs be wup behind a tool shed........get over the foolishness and get the name deal sign.

We are talking about Jerry and Stephen Jones here. Complete idiots in the game of football.

 

[Aven8]

Wow. I thought the Agent didn’t pick up the phone......

 

[KJJ]

I blame his agent.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Why dont the Cowboys just give him the 4 years that he wants?

To help the team create some cap space to sign other player(s).

It wouldn’t be the first time Jerry’s doubled down on stupid
