Solidifying the defense by extending Diggs, the raise Martin received, trading for Lance, today's extension of Steele and the incoming extension of Lamb is all being done as part of a strategic roster construction so that when Dak and the front office negotiate a new deal, the front office is going to be able to say we've given you all these key pieces for success, now it's time that you work with us.
Plus, the front office is going to let them know they can not budge with Micah needing an extension as soon as next year.
Dak got the max deal last time around.
Now it's time for him to take a team friendly deal for a Superbowl run.
If not, then it will be best for both parties to go their separate ways.
Hopefully a team friendly extension is worked out with Dak.
