Jethro should be happy making 500 million a year with lower ticket prices . But why should he if the Market doesn’t force him to?
I’m not sure fans all understand how the Capitalist market is driven.
Or maybe they’re just on the short end of the stick cause of poor life choices they’ve made.
But if you are in the Top 10 of your class you can dictate and negotiate your value according to the Market which is driven by Supply and Demand.
It’s the same for Doctors, Engineers, Lawyers, Accountants, etc and Athletes.
Also, agents push players to take the highest offer as if it’s some sort of obligation to the next generation of players to do so and keep them on the rise.
Maybe, but there’s also so much more to things than AAV, but that’s how contracts are perceived.
Regardless, a guy in Prescotts situation can absolutely call all the shots. Stay if he wants to take something that appears to appease Jerry’s ego’s desire for a discount…..or start again elsewhere with a FO that appears to at least be trying to win and won’t blame his salary for being the reason they cant.
It really comes down to if Prescott wants to stay here or not. He is getting 50+ a year and around 200 guaranteed either in Dallas or elsewhere.
