Signed by Cowboys Trevon Diggs 5-Year, $97M Extension (Contract Details Post 416)

[CWR]

You will never convince me a cb afraid to hit and tackle should br paid anywhere close to 20 mil

You wouldn't have paid Prime? I'm not putting Diggs up there, but being a ball hawk is a rare trait and he wasn't going to go without in any circumstance.

What would a team pay a prime Deion Sanders if he were playing today?

Whatever he wanted.

yet Zach sits and waits after sacrificing his body all these years, and this guy gets paid for not sacrificing his body. Yup, total sense

 

[KJJ]

Guy doesn't tackle. Paid way too much. Sorry I know people will not agree.

He’s a playmaker, which is why he got paid. He’s no Deion Sanders, but he didn’t tackle either.

Lol what? Martin will get his money.

He was paid he highest at his position when he signed his deal in 2018

I thought the Cowboys media and this board said this would be the hardest contract to complete? Diggs will spend his prime years a Cowboy.

This defense is going to be formidable for years to come. Glad to get this one out of the way.

...IMO ..thats way to much for his input, as of late. I would have extended Lamb instead. Waited on Diggs another year.

I have a feeling a good number of those complaining the Cowboys overpaid would probably be the first people screaming the Cowboys are cheapskates if Diggs left next year and signed someplace else.

Of course they would. They are a bunch of nuts.

Did prime no show in the playoffs? I don't have memories of prime getting burned either.

 

[mldardy]

your right. they aren't committed to winning, why should I be?

enjoy your purchase.

Yet you are still here posting on the COWBOYSZONE FORUM

I would've done CD first as well, but do we know they weren't trying? I don't have a clue what CD is looking for. It may have been better value to get Diggs done presently.

 

[KJJ]

It’s going to be interesting now that he got paid if continues to make even more business decisions.

I'm sure Diggs being in the final year of his contract while Dallas locked up Lamb's 5th year option played a part in which one gets a new contract first.

So would you pay him or not? That's the point, not a comparison between Prime and Diggs.

If you don't pay Diggs where does that leave this defense next year?

I have my own reservations, but I do believe he's a game changer.

If they make Diggs an honorary Hot Boy, Risen is going to lose it.

He already is. Did you see the tweet of the new Hot Boys?

 

[KJJ]

Nothing like a Cowboy fan complaining just to be complaining

Anytime a player gets paid fans complain because they don’t want to pay anyone. Diggs is just another real good player a lot of fans wanted to move on from. The complaining will continue when CeeDee and Parsons get paid.

so the guy who sweats Cowboy blue waits while the guy who cries if he breaks a sweat does?

That wasn't mentioned in your previous post.

Now they will be able to Tag Steele, Pollard, someone else next season.This will cause the board to explode again .
