Tyron Smith's contract, extension or final year?

[FaSho]

All the obligatory love, HOF career, he's been a great Cowboy, yada, yada, yada...

Time to move on.
Should have done it this year already.
Finally cut the cord permanently.

I have no confidence in this dude being healthy for any amount of time.... how is he worth it anymore?

 

[tyke1doe]

It's been a great career, but he needs to retire.

 

[CCBoy]

This is the real question on the table at present...and it applies to Parsons:

The math to get to the highest APY for any defensive player isn’t difficult. Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald currently has the high-water mark at $31.667 million. Parsons is due to make $2.2 million in 2023 and $2.989 million in 2024.

So sign him to a four-year, $128 million extension after the season. Or a five-year, $160 million extension. With his 2024 pay, he’ll sign either a five-year, $130.989 million contract or a six-year, $162.989 million deal. Either arrangement has a new-money average of $32 million.

For the former, it’s an average from signing of $26.19 million. For the latter, the average from signing is $27.14 million.

Dallas is going to quickly be playing musical chairs with the offensive line, especially on the left side.

 

[Creeper]

Now is not the time to make this decision. Steele is a free agent next year unless they give him a new contract. He could get an offer the Cowboys will not match, like Jeremy Parnell did. If that's the case then maybe it would be smart to re-sign Tyron next year to a 1 or 2 year deal. A lot depends on how Tyron does this year. What if Tyron plays 17 games this year and plays reasonably well?

Parsons is going to want to be the highest paid defensive player in the nfl.
Trade him for the first pick in the draft next year and grab the quarterback of the decade.
Back to TS, appreciate him playing out the contract but with his injury history, time to move on.

I hear ya man, I dont know either. But be careful, you might get called an Eagles fan for showing any criticism. It seems to have become the cute thing to do by many around here.

 

[Cowboys22]

Again. You're viewing it AS IS, with Tyron Smith still on the team and starting at the LT position. I'm viewing the hypothetical scenario that they would have moved on from Tyron Smith before the draft---the entire draft plan would have changed.

Carry on then. I don’t care about hypotheticals.

 

[charron]

Let this year play out. When he gets hurt if needed just put him on IR. And then at years end you schedule his ROH ceremony and let him retire while he can still walk.

 

[Captain-Crash]

I appreciate him but he will be hurt 4 games in and will be done. Good luck Tyron, you were a good one until the injuries.

 

[HanD]

It's kind of amazing that a player of his caliber had such a long contract and it will be played all the way through. No holdouts or demands for a raise. Dude signed a contract and honored it. Respect.

And at the time he took less than he could have.

Smh we get a true generational player who grew up a cowboy fan and works endlessly and people wanna trade him and role the dice.

 

[Havic]

If he stays healthy, a team friendly extension will happen. The guy never complains about his contract and has been a model player here. Nothing but class, I hope he stays healthy

The reason they haven’t moved on is because he’s still a good player when he’s healthy and he provides depth in the event we suffer a rash of injuries. If he ends up missing multiple games again this will probably be the end of the line for him. The Cowboys are trying to hang on with him as long as they can. Having him around also allows Tyler Smith to gain more experience. It’s pretty easy to see why the Cowboys are reluctant to part ways with him.

 

[Vinnie2u]

Tyron is a made man... He's not getting the Zeke, Dez or Jaylon treatment

It depends do you want to watch a generational player or win a championship. His price for a DE will force you to use lesser talent elsewhere . Quarterbacks have directly cost us playoff games. Enough.

 

[The Quest for Six]

I think this is Tyron Smith's final year and he should be the swing tackle

Nothing against Tyron, he's been a great player and a professional on and off the field but hasn't played a full season since 2015, and only 17 games in the last three years, there's no "IF HE STAYS HEALTHY", he won't! time to move on after this season..

Fair enough. I think he's gonna ball.

He's worthless on the right side. Hopeless. A decade of muscle memory makes that impossible.

But in his natural position he's a Grizzly Bear. You want to make a HOF caliber LT, still in his early thirties...some backup swing tackle. Get that **** out of here.
