The elephant in the room is clearly Dak Prescott. I dont think this team can live with a 4 yr deal, and they shouldnt. If Dak wants security then all he has to do is look at how the Cowboys handled Romo's career. If he cant see that this team takes care of its franchise players, either hes too greedy or too stupid. He picked the wrong agent. Yes he's trying to get top dollar but at what cost? Alienating the team you say you want to finish your career with?
Boom. You nailed it. His agent is killing him and Michael Irvin made a plea on his podcast this past week for Dak to step in and take over. I don't think it will happen, though. He has said it again and again, he's trusting his agent and his trust is misplaced unfortunately.
Next i think this team has to trade Gallup. First, they arent going to be able to resign him with Lamb coming up in a few yrs. Second, he would get you a real nice defensive peice or a good draft pick. Id prefer a player because this defense is already young. They can draft a WR as they've been hitting on them left and right lately.
They are going to have to franchise Dak, which means clearing up $20 million in cap space. There's nothing obvious; just need to rework a bunch of veterans. It's easy to do but it's going to hurt the franchise. The two prime candidates are Amari Cooper and Tyron Smith. Are we sure that we want both of these players for the long term? If not, the franchise could end up with dead money for years to come.
The point here is that if they rework Cooper, it's the nail in the coffin for Gallup. He could get traded, but I actually think it's better to let him play out his contract. They'd probably get a 3rd round comp pick for him - and they get his services in 2021. Do you think they'll get better than a 3rd for him now? If so, they'll do it, but I don't think that they will.
Those that want Jaylon gone re going to be disappointed. This team loves what he brings. Yes he has some bad plays but he has alot of good plays too. When he's allowed to play run first and attack he's very good. When he goes bad is when they want him to float and react. His past injury limits him some and thats where the problem is. Think Quinn will put him in position to succeed.
I agree with you yet again. The problem with Jaylon was coaching. He'll be back better than ever this year. If he isn't though, they need to move on after 2021.
