Remember saying just a couple of months ago I thought $25-27M would do it........damn. But if you think about it, is it possible his agent is simply we won't take a penny less than Wentz. Hell Jerry and Stephen counter with $32.5M should get it done.

Fact is romo got very few endorsements while QB of the cowboys.

You're right. He didn't really get any mainstream endorsements until after the 2014 season.

Those DirectTV commercials were hilaruous!

I've been saying 32 for a hot minute.

Aikman & Romo should have too.

It's always the perks plus. And I don't blame them for wanting it if they can get it. I don't blame Dak for wanting 34 million per year if he can get it.

I wonder what the Cowboys offer was.

 

[Techsass]

Well within the last couple of weeks, we've gone from $22~25m up to accepting $30~32m as a fanbase.

 

[HungryLion]

Wait, why did Wentz set the *floor* on the Dak negotiation again?

I think what they mean is. If you were Dak. Is there any way you accept a deal for less than what Wentz got?

 

[Corso]

I wonder what the Cowboys offer was.

It was "insulting", but Dak's agents didn't decide to publicly portray it as such, like DL's agents.

 

[Bowdown27]

I figured it would be higher but counter and see where we go

The Dallas Cowboys knew this was coming.

When they finally approached Dak Prescott to broach the topic of his seemingly inevitable contract extension, they did so with an initial offer in hand. While it's unknown what their first offer was, what's known is that it was met with a counteroffer from Prescott and CAA, his representation. That counteroffer was made in late May, nearly a month after Russell Wilson became the highest-paid player in NFL history with a four-year, $140 million extension from the Seattle Seahawks that includes $107 million guaranteed money.

It, however, also happened around three weeks prior to the Philadelphia Eagles giving Carson Wentz a four-year, $128 million extension that itself includes $107 million in guarantees. It was a foregone conclusion Prescott wouldn't best Wilson's figures, which made that the ceiling — but Wentz just set a floor that carries a $32 million annual average salary (AAS) over the course of his true extension.

With that in tow, Prescott and CAA have reportedly lobbed an offer to the Cowboys that would put the former Rookie of the Year at an AAS of $34 million, according to Clarence Hill, Jr. of Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Of course, this is all a part of the negotiation process, wherein the club goes low and the player goes high, with the ultimate goal of both sides eventually meeting in the middle. The reality remains Prescott will likely land a deal worth more than $30 million per year, and even that's a tough sell now, thanks to Wentz.
