Report: Cowboys have discussed a contract extension with Dak

[viman96]

Are they really going to give him a raise from $40 million based on 1 playoff victory? They deserve to go another 28 years without a super bowl just for even considering it!

He has two wins (Seattle and Tampa). Regardless every starting QB gets paid so just accept it is going to happen.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Good.

Jerry doesn't deserve to see another Super Bowl and this will all but almost guarantee it.

 

[starfan1]

lol this ought to be good

 

[kskboys]

As expected.

If you are surprised at this, you may want to get a new rock to live under.

Top 5 pay for bottom 5 performance? Only in Dallas...

Bottom 5 performance

You guys should learn something about leverage, negotiating, and the cap

I’ve been telling all of you there is no way around this extension. Y’all don’t want to listen

 

[jazzcat22]

So if this saves $35 million or more in cap space for next season. Not to mention what it can save this season. How soon will fans whine they won’t spend the $$$ on FA’s?

 

[MonsterD]

Whatever fans think of him really doesn't matter. Jerry thinks so highly of Dak , he said he thinks Dak will be a HOF'er. So Dak will have his money no matter what. Get mad at Jerry not Dak.

Them saving money against the cap and spending money aren’t the same thing

 

[rambo2]

Yet the idiots running this franchise won't rework a deal for one of thee best guards to ever play......

Some will call them idiots no matter what they do. Even when they build an outstanding team which they have done.

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

MM will be the only scapegoat left.

Until they break this near 30 year hiatus, they haven’t done their job. Period.

I was more or less joking about it. I should have been more clear.
As there are those that think all that goes into Jerry’s pocket.

So they win the participation award?? ......28 years plus of outstanding teams evidently, just not Championship teams....

Fair enough

Risen isn’t going to be happy about this

Dak will have a $60m cap hit next year as is. Anyone surprised by this hasn't been paying attention.

As not-a-particularly-big-Dak-fan, I would take a 3 year extension pulling his AAV up to $45m. If the team just lets the contract go its going to ruin the team's chances over the next few years. Dak has a $36m cap hit in 2025 when he isn't even on the team.

 

[Flamma]

Makes sense if only because his 2024 cap hit is outrageous. If Dallas wants to commit to Dak they can push that money down the road as the cap increases.

Right. But they don't have to do an extension until after this season. They already restructured his contract this season. Giving him an extension on top of that makes no sense. Because an extension is also a restructure.

Correct. These people are clueless.

Yes, we don’t need Prescott, we can go to the playoffs with Cooper Rush, LMAO. I don’t want to pay him, what’s the alternative?
