Contract leverage may be a by-product of this trade but it's only leverage if Trey Lance actually plays early and impresses. That's a gamble. If Trey looks bad then it's contract leverage in the opposite direction.

Trey Lance is an attempt to address the future with a player that has great potential but needs development. His time in San Fran proved that. They threw him out there way too early.

Jerry might try to use his name for leverage but it's a bluff. Again, this trade was entirely an investment in the future.

All QBs are gamble. I rather gamble with a QB not eating all the cap space if he's not carrying the football team.

Dak is supposed to have 40mil aav. Hes at around 25mil aav in what they've paid him. Which will again be around 30-35 mil in 2024 when they restructure and extend him. Taking probably around 25 of that 29mil base salary and turn it into a sb on the next deal. They did this with Romo his whole career. Some of you make too much of a deal about daks deals, never once have his deals affected the team, just like romos never did.
Thanks for the insights, they are appreciated...
