oh we're going in this offseason. get your popcorn ready.

 

[Sydla]

My hope is that they are trying to slide in and get Dak on a discount.

And ugh at talking extension with Elliott now.

Like father, like son.

Why is he just announcing all of this....

Because he was probably asked the question. And everybody in the world knows its going to happen. Probably?

 

[Alexander]

I have never seen any NFL team approach an extension this important by giving up as much leverage as they have.

 

[Sydla]

Where he was draft is meaningless Stephen.

Unless you are trying to use that to depress the value of his extension.

 

[ItzKelz]

The first 40 million dollar a year QB!!!!

Not being sarcastic, but what is the advantage of announcing your intentions, why not just negotiate with your player quietly? He said this about Dak and Zeke so far... Curious.

Sounds like he’s doing the opposite and suggesting that since he’s had to start since day one, due to his draft slot he’s been woefully underpaid.

Is it really that big of a deal? Its inevitable. You think a team would've tried to trade for Bell of the Steelers didnt announce they werent going to offer him anything?

Don’t understand that correlation. Just saying it doesn’t seem wise to go to a negotiation having told the agents you’re at their mercy.

I don't know but if they really are going after a FA, it hinders them, because it just shows how much money we actually have.

Because he's an idiot like his father.

They are. The position is only going going up. If we wait and he plays very well this year then his agent will be asking 30+ per year.

 

[DFWJC]

Have been saying all along.
Dak is going to get paid.

Right or wrong, my choice would be to use the 4th year as the final evaluation year--like is done with 1st round QBs.
But it looks like he'll get his a year earlier.
