Rapaport: Prescott still on track for large contract extension

[CWR]

No. You can restructure Dak. Have everybody run it back on a 1 year deal and figure it all out next year. But the team is too stupid to do it

I dont think so. He's got one year left and two void years. They pushed the money back as it is. Not 100% but I don't believe there is much wiggle room.

 

[Aven8]

He'll end up making half a billion here.

Half. A. Billion.

Pretty good from a guy that grew up in a trailer from Louisiana…..

There is. Absolutely is

 

[Tabascocat]

As if the next HC will have that power

True

 

[Captain-Crash]

the eagles fans hope he gets it and setback the team for years, maybe decades.

 

[CWR]

There is. Absolutely is

Well kind of, you're talking about adding TWO MORE VOID YEARS. I meant within the years we had remaining.

So Dak gets one more year and if we part ways he's on the books for FOUR MORE YEARS.

That's not a smart idea either.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Notice a large extension, not record-breaking. I'm not convinced the extension is a slam dunk. I can see Stephen and France struggling to agree on his value and those yelling discount, you can forget that.

 

[Mark]

An extension would amplify the biggest mistake this franchise has already made.

Financial & physical dis-entanglement from Dak has to be a priority for this ball club.

 

[atlantacowboy]

Dak is a big Texans fan today. If Lamar loses, he takes the title of worst QB playoff record (minimum 5 starts) off Daks shoulders.

Eagle fans don't employ forward thinking like that. Most of em can't remember to change their underwear. Don't give them so much credit.

 

[NeonNinja]

This is the most likely outcome. However, it’s the wrong decision. Jerry!

 

[jhj7098]

It’s like that game last Sunday didn’t even happen. Seems like they are rewarding them for that putrid performance!

I see them high-five themselves on here bragging about it, saying find another team if you don't like it.

 

[nalam]

Shameful State of the franchise.

 

[fivetwos]

The day they move on from Dak they are going to have to go full rebuild.

Considering all circumstances, I don’t totally blame them for not wanting to do that just yet.

BUT….at LEAST go the whole way with it and mortgage the future to bring in the players needed to beat better teams.

Don’t tell me that you’re worried about the cap three years from now.

Don’t tell me that the draft is our only way to improve. If so, may as well tear it down now.

I’m not gonna be fooled into thinking they will actually DO what’s necessary, but I’ll at least give it the early off-season and see from there.

I don’t expect much anymore and it’s sad.

 

[Blitzen]

Get the bag Dak…

Good for him. He knows he won’t be getting any team trophies. Jerry and front office decided postseason success is not that worthwhile.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Excellent breakdown of the Cowboy's options.............ALL ugly (lol)

Dak Prescott’s contract guarantees he’ll be with Cowboys, for multiple more years​

There was a question, apparently, as to whether the Cowboys would bring back coach Mike McCarthy. There’s no question that they’ll bring back quarterback Dak Prescott.

It has nothing to do with his performance, which was great during the regular season but not good enough in the playoff loss to the Packers. It has everything to do with his contract.

Prescott is entering the final year of the four-year contract signed in lieu of playing under the second franchise tag. He got to the second tag because the Cowboys refused to extend his rookie deal after three years, and then again after he completed his four-year rookie contract and he was franchise-tagged a first time.

The situation gave him considerable leverage in early 2021. He did with it exactly what team owner Jerry Jones has done throughout his entire life when he has had considerable leverage.

He took full advantage of it.

 

[SwagSurfer]

I thought Jerry was fed up with Wak? Why extend him if that's the case?

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

lol no chance this roster goes 5-12. 5-12 would mean change

They will stick in the 10-12 wins so nothing changes

They better hope they continue to play scrubs then. If the NFC ever get's strong again they're done.

I agree.
