NBC: Stephen Jones denies that Dez Bryant threatened to miss time **merged**

[Tabascocat]

So they can't make a deal even after Wednesday?

Only is he signs the tag.

 

[Corso]

New girl? Am I now out of the loop? I'm already puzzled by references to Stasheroo Insanity Threads, who is this new Not Mya?

 

[Frozen700]

Only is he signs the tag.

Thanks, never knew this.

 

[phildadon86]

Only is he signs the tag.

Even if he signs the tag, he cant negotiate until next season

Merged threads can be a pain in the backside.

Not as badly as several threads about the same sugject.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

This, too, shall play it's game to it's undeniable fruition.
Let us prey that whatever transpires comes to a Cowboys-positive conclusion.
In whatever manner this conclusion presents itself.
Hominus Cowboyicum Nonmalificarum...
Aaaaaaaaaameeeeeeeeeen.

the gospel should be get ever one signed, keep them healtht and lets dance.
i am thinking 10-6 if we are healthy padre.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

I saw what you did there....but please believe....we play without dez....we r in trouble

funny how some think we are nothing without Dez. It is awe and revernce like this that make Dez think he can yank a storied franchise like the cowboys.
The only indispensible one is Romo and that is a fact' Jack.

 

[xpistofer]

So letting Murray go, and now this with Dez is just fine with you ? let's see if you feel that way when this team does not make the playoffs. and waste the last few years of Romo.

For the record, yes I thought both were wise moves. Sad, but wise.

 

[Jerryrage]

Not happy. Pay Dez.

 

[Tabascocat]

If he signs before the deadline, they can still work on a contract.

 

[Garrettop]

I'll take Tony over Tom, please. But boy would I relish a Belichick coach.

Why? Garrett is going to be better than Belichick when the story is done being written. BB is close to retirement, Garrett is the new Landry.

I hope you are right, we will see Garretts true colours when Romo is not there as the starting QB

Seems to me like the agent, if he has any part in the threats to sit out, would also be telling Dez, "look we can threaten to sit out but if the Cowboy's call our bluff, it could make us look rather foolish if we don't then, sit out!"

Lol!
Has anyone asked yet, why would an agent advise a player to sit out and lose large game checks, when in fact, he would also be losing his percentage of said paycheck?

 

[Nightman]

If he signs before the deadline, they can still work on a contract.

July 15th 4pm is the deadline for a new contract whether Dez signs the tag or not

Yes, but as I understand it.........Dez and his agents will still be allowed to work on terms towards a new deal when the season is over.

If he doesn't sign the tag until later, there can't be any contract communication about it.

Maybe I misunderstood, IDK.

Really??? Brady could finish up the best that has ever played. C'mon, I'm a homer too, but that's too far.

Sitting out once the season starts won't get Dez any more money. It will only create more bad blood. It's bad advice like you said.

I'm sure they can talk all they want. But they can't reach a new deal until the last game of the season is played.

3/4 of our offense from last year would be gone without Dez, and Murray gone... What happens of Williams go's down? Your a funny man...

How many "great coaches" had just_a_guy_01(ie Quincy Carter) as a QB? Name me a great coach, they had a fantastic or at least decent QB. I'm not saying Garrett might not get stuck with a Gabbert in the next 30 years. Hopefully it doesn't lead him to being on another team's sidelines.
