Yes let’s follow the example set by the Lions !
the Niners did the same thing with Jimmy G
that franchise has really fallen apart too hasn’t it

You guys won’t be happy until Dak is highest paid player. And San Fran has a defense. Which once we overpay all our offensive players we will not have any money to build a defense. I know Dak is going to get paid and probably Cooper too, I just hope the contracts are structured so we can build a top notch defense.the Niners did the same thing with Jimmy G

We couldn’t get a defense when our QB cost $465k. Our draft picks suck and we were too afraid to get a top tier free agent to bolster it.You guys won’t be happy until Dak is highest paid player.

He confuses what we are saying. We aren't saying we hope Dak is highest paid or top 3 in pay. What we are saying is Dak has earned that salary and will be paid accordingly due to the market. Has nothing to do with what we want.We couldn’t get a defense when our QB cost $465k. Our draft picks suck and we were too afraid to get a top tier free agent to bolster it.
Dak could continue to play for $465k per year, the defense will continue to suck and he would still be hated.
I have.Do I have seen guys say Dak shouldn't get paid top 2 money because he isn't top 2 in the league.
Let's look at Zeke. Most on here that say Dak shouldn't get top QB salary was wanting Zeke to get paid top RB money but yet Zeke wasn't even a top 5 RB this season.
Same thing with Cooper, I haven't seen anybody say he should take much less money because he isn't top 5 receiver in the league.
What about Lawrence? Was he a top DE this season....... the answer is no but he got paid like it.
Jaylon took a little less but still around that top 5 money but is he a top 5 LB.
Byron Jones will get top 3 money but is he even a top 5 CB?
I have seen Phillips DT from Bills where some want to sign him. Is he a top 5 DT in this league? No, but he still get paid.
All these are examples are just about the year they sign because in another year or two those players most likely will be outside top 10 in salaries at their position.

I'm probably one of the worst posters on this entire board over that. It's a curse. My Wife doesn't even listen to me anymore when I say something is too much. She just gives me that look and hands over my CC. For me, it's not about how much I like or dislike the players normally. Don't get me wrong, there have been players that I just don't want on the team but yeah, nobody calls me up for opinion so there is something to the idea of remembering I'm the fan and not the team. It is what it is but I do understand both sides of the dilemma.
Sometimes you have to realize you don’t have to overpay Just because every other team is doing it
Elite has been so overused that I wondered when a new word would be created to separate out the actual elite QBs. And now we have it...legendary. I wonder how many years it takes for that term to be watered down?
88 when someone posts something like Jake did why even answer. You had a good point and post. If you dont mind some advise, some of the posters here are either young kids with no brains yet or adults with no brains, no common sense and just ignorant. Good job enjoyed your points of viewSo because the lions has never had success they shouldn't have paid their franchise QB or any other team in the league? Yep, that makes total sense

none of the top players would be signing with you then.Giving a player top pay when he is not top at his position is overpaying. If there was no salary cap I wouldn’t care what he was paid.
