PFT: Cowboys seem to be willing to let Dak Prescott hit the market in 2025

[stiletto]

By opting for a modest kicking of the salary-cap can in 2024, the Cowboys embark on the last year of quarterback Dak Prescott’s contract at a cap number of $55.455 million. With no ability to tag him in 2025, and no apparent inclination to extend the deal now, the Cowboys seem to be willing to let him finish the contract and see what happens.

It actually looks like they will extend him.

I still believe they'll extend-

BUT, a small part of me thinks a draft day trade - isn't out of the realm of possibility

Jerry and Stephen are not going to let Dak go anywhere! They love him!

Another article trying to make sense of a situation that doesn’t make sense because of our inactivity. Not sourced pure conjecture. If that’s what they decide to do at least it’s a direction because right now they are rudderless

It looks like they will have a good team as long as he is the qb. Getting rid of him would put that in danger. They want to stay good as long as possible.

risk averse strategy will never win big

with who? only viable team i see is minnesota. they got 2 first round picks. but will they give those up to go with a vet QB who hasn’t shown to be capable of winning when it counts? they’d be back to Kirk Cousins 2.0

No draft day trade. If Dak were willing to waive the no-trade clause, a new 4yr/$240M would have to be in place before any trade would happen, it is improbable that could be done on draft day.

Wasn't there a report out that they'll talk contract numbers around training camp?

If Dallas want's to keep him, it'll be ideal to sign him before his deal voids imo.

They are going to try and keep that Super Bowl window open as long as possible

I think that shipped has sailed but we will see what they have left after they extend Dak.

This team will probabbly be pretty awful in another 2 or 3 years, if we extend Dak for another 5 years,

 

[JBS]

Not that it matters that much but Daks dead cap figure is 40M next season, not more than 50M. I believe so, at least.

[rambo2]

Michael G. thinks they are extending him. The Dallas Morning News guys usually know what they are talking about.

 

[Ranching]

They may be waiting to see what happens with sexual assault allegations

Cowboys SB window with Dak................

 

[stiletto]

I honestly don't think the FO knows what they even want to do.. They seem torn thus the lack of talk with Dak's agent and in the public they state they are working with Dak. So who really knows?

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

The bum is not getting extended.

Jerry isn’t getting burned twice.

 

[Vinnie2u]

Sink or swim year for lots of folks in Dallas.. I like it..

I suspect the Cowboys are waiting for TC to progress before signing Dak. The results they see with Lance may have impacted their thinking.

Actually, it seems to me that Jerry's favor has waned somewhat about his devotion to Dak, while Stephen is still favoring signing Dak ASAP.

I wouldn't be overly surprised if Jerry would like to see how well Lance performs, when evaluating him to see if he can develop impressively.
