Twitter: Stephen Jones offered D.Lawrence 1year 10M

[MountaineerCowboy]

That language is in the CBA, so all players will be affected...

Apparently Dak is special seeing as how it's been reported that it's not in his contract.

That was a honest offer to Law. Dude hasnt been healthy in a long time. When was the last time he had double digit sacks? We literally finish last season without him. And we choose this greedy, selfish clown over Coop?

If you truly believe that you are completely ignorant about the free agent market. Lawrence gets at least $16M per (likely more) the first hours he is a free agent.

Disrespect, funny after "what he has done for the team", funny and really sad for a guy to say after zero contribution except suck cap space and underperform yearly and folks buy into it . And people say Jerry isn't in control. Jerry caved for one of his guys and folks are on Stevie for trying to do the right thing. What a screwed up GM/owner this team has. This is really sad and he should of been thrown out with the garbage.

Jerry would have caved for another one of his guys (Gregory) if Stephen didn't torpedo it.

As much as I don't like the Joneses and believe we are in horrible hands after Jerry, at least Stephen ruined that Gregory deal.

DeMarcus Lawrence is disrespectful to the cowboys.

"It was disrespectful to me and for what I've done for the cowboys"

And what's that? Produce in your contract year, hold out and use surgery as a negotiation, then never come close to said season again while not being able to complete a full season since.

I will celebrate the day this clown is off the team.

I think he is a good player. Not great. Good. Team def overpaid. I like having players on this team with upside. Outside of Micah, Diggs Joseph, and maybe Odiggy, there isn't much upside to be hopeful. Definitely not any upside on the Offense. Maybe Lamb will overcome the dropsies. Outside of that. No upside.

Its possible. But if Lawerence was playing for any other team he would have been release or traded by now. 3 years of under peformance by Law, missing almost all of last year and at the time having a NFL max contract. Man you guys can miss me on thus mess. At best a team will give him 15M with little gurantees. This guy wont make it pass training camp. At least RG was always healthy for the most part. His issues stem for what is now legal weed.

Everybody is in the market for a defensive end that's averaged 4 sacks a season after he signed a big contract...

I believe you are overrating our talent the same way our FO does.

D-Law, being older and more banged up, wouldn't have gotten more than Gregory.

 

[Denim Chicken]

We used to believe that all we had to do was “wait it out” and once Jerry was out the picture our franchise might possibly be revived. I think I trust Jerry more than Stephen at this point

Stephen is a cheapskate and will be problem. Jerry is good getting deals.

You are absolutely wrong. RG got $14 and he's never had double digit sacks.

The rest of the leauge doesn't look at a stat sheet to evaluate a player like the know-it-alls here. They watch actual tape & Lawrence is a really good player.

LOL if only they exhibited this restraint when negotiating with Elliott.

Instead this wackadoodles handed him the largest TB contract in history.

 

[Creeper]

Long live the King!

 

[baltcowboy]

Many fans can’t wait until Jerrah passes the team on to Stephen.

The Cowboys are not getting Von Miller. Cap Boy won’t allow it.

 

[Rayman70]

I think this sums ^ Jerry and Stevie Jones after the Randy debacle.

 

[G2]

I can't keep up, are we cheering for Jerry now?

 

[kevm3]

Not surprising. Stephen tried playing hardball with several players on this team and lost over and over by having to pay them record contracts.

 

[Sydla]

Stephen takes the "start low" negotiating ploy a bit too far.

"I got a family to raise"...

Dude, shut the heck up with that. Anyone that that can't "raise a family" on 10M/year is doing it wrong.

Plus, money has nothing to do with raising a family. Raising and supporting are not the same thing.


I despise Lawrence. They should have let him walk. I'd rather have players who want to win above all else.
