No. Just quarterbacks.
If Parsons got an extension right now, it doesn't start until 2026. Extensions do not delete rookie contracts. The reason teams pay some first rounders after 3 years is because it gives them the extra 2 rookie years to spread out the cap hits.
No the reputation comes from the fan base
I take it you don't have much business experience? That's how all NFL teams operate, and how the majority of businesses operate.
You do realize that's a bunch of nonsense made-up by fans I don't know of any of our players that actually deserved a new contract you know our stars that got lowballed in any way shape or form just because they negotiated to get the best possible deal and it took a while that is not a lowball these players don't deserve the money they're asking some of it is way overvaluing themselves...
You're absolutely right. But I sometimes wonder if that's a good idea at all times. Sometimes just a little more can go a long way. It's not just the star players you want to keep happy, but even some of the lower end FAs.
The players who negotiate reasonably and in good faith don't have these protracted holdouts. Those come from players wanting to be paid at the top of the market to the detriment of the team.
You know what bothers me the most. Vet players that want to renegotiate because they outperformed their contract. Has any bust even come out and given money back because he was a drag on the cap? Will Evan Neal of the Giants come out and say, I absolutely suck, I don't want that 24M dollar rookie deal. No.
It is but she is right that it’s makes no sense. Signing him cuts his cap hit and unless you are just gonna let him walk it’s time to get it done. There is no reason to drag it out. We drug out many players and it always costs more because other guys set the bar higher. It’s a prime example of no actual plan at all
All players just want market value and I doubt any fan would be any different
It’s generally cheaper too. Every year the bar gets higher
she's right though...price keeps going up
I don’t think Jerry lie balls so much as he waits and waits then gives in. If I was gonna have signed Zeke I would have done it sooner since RB don’t last long. Same with Dak, it would have been cheaper to have signed him earlier. Lamb is not getting any cheaper and if anything the guys already signed drive up the price. Have a plan, make a decision and get it done or plan to move on.
He may not get any more than he was gonna but he now has the ammo to show his want was in line. But if you’re gonna sign him get it done because it lowers his cap hit. If you aren’t gonna sign him you should have traded him before the draft. We are gonna run into the same issue with bland. He’s gonna want big money and if you wasn’t planning on paying it you should have traded him before the draft for a pick you could use then to replace him. Just make a cecision, have a plan and get it done
Simply put…..Jerry and Stephen are telling everyone that they don’t care about paying extra instead of being early and paying less
No they don't. You're falling for the media spew. Many players sign for reasonable amounts w/ very little negotiation.
There hasn’t been any contract discussion between CeeDee Lamb and the Cowboys for a while.

It appears the absence of CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons at Dallas Cowboys’ OTAs this week was quite loud, as it raised concern among the fans about the future of these two star players, especially wide receiver Lamb.
There had already been speculation regarding him holding out until the Cowboys offered him a satisfactory deal and his absence from the offseason program has only confirmed it. Even though the franchise claims to prioritize Lamb’s extension, NFL Network’s Jane Slater revealed there hasn’t been any contract discussion for a while.
In the recent segment of NFL Live on ESPN, analyst Mina Kimes gave her opinion on the Cowboys’ unconventional silence over signing its star players as he called out the franchise particularly for not finalizing the deal with the 2023 NFL reception leader.
"You can make a case for not doing it with Dak Prescott if they really are tired. They feel like they’ve hit a ceiling– I don’t personally agree with that but I can understand that. I do not see a case not getting a deal done by now with CeeDee Lamb, it makes no sense. He was on my first-team All-Pro last list, you guys have talked about the lack of depth behind him, there’s no logic to this. And if I was a Cowboys fan, I would be very very nervous about it." - said Mina Kimes as she elaborated on the error by the Cowboys

Players don’t sign for less than market value unless they are coming off an injury on on a 4th contract or something near the end of their career
Woman shouldn’t be allowed in sports besides the Olympics and for interviews. I don’t need to see them making foul calls, don’t need to hear them doing play by play and or hosting or co hosting a talk show.
I guess the Bengals arent lowballing Tee HIggins? Even though they tagged him, that is vastly below what he could get with an extension....so are they lowballing him, or are they playing by the rules in the CBA?
