I'm not certain, but I believe Dak has done more endorsements than Brady. Should the extra money in endorsements enter into the equation? I guess I'm just dumb, but I can't see any real lifestyle difference taking $32, 33, 34 or 35 million a year. Nor can I see a difference in 105 million or 110 million in guaranteed money. If Dak can give a little to help the team, maybe the team will go out to five years, instead of six.My apologies. Concisely, the point is it highly likely Brady would have been asking for more money throughout his career if not for his wife.
Brady is correct in saying he is smart when it comes to past salary cap considerations with New England but his own words reflect his logic was/is indicative of his marital status. And he is right about that as well.
Any "Prescott should do what Brady has done" argument is fundamentally flawed if a Gisele counterpart for Prescott is not factored into it. A stronger, more relevant financial/salary cap argument of that type could be made if Prescott was as lucky as a son of a you-know-what as Brady has been as far as spouses are concerned.
But really, this is all speculation as we know nothing about what the actual stumbling blocks are.
