What are the ramifications of the Non Exclusive Tag for Pickens?

[jazzcat22]

My issue again isn't the numbers so much it's just the point of going through being tagged. Don't players want long term security etc instead of betting on themselves??

Dak did it.

The horrible thing is they should have started negotiations a long time ago. It will be used as an excuse as why we won't be active early in FA.

What other teams started negotiations with their own players a long time ago.
No team has yet.

Not sure what other teams do have to do with the Cowboys.

What teams have 2 $30M+ WR's?

 

[Chasing6]

Nope, especially since they used last year to clear several big contracts off the books.

Sure

Dak did it.

By doing what we can't blame him for everything

It certainly does have something to do with your comments. You act like Dallas is the only team that has not started negotiating with their own players.
And does it matter if other teams have two WR”s making that kind of money. Bengals do.

But yet he does get much of the blame. You seen it.

Perhaps not the best example. Is it possible, just possible, that the Bengals' decline last year might have had something to do with spending too much of their cap space on WR's?

Not exactly correct. Dallas has the right to two first round picks,but it doesn’t have to be. A team may be willing to overpay for Pickens, but before they do, they can call Dallas and offer a different deal. “Instead of this year’s first and next year’s first, would you take a first and a second? Sometimes teams negotiate the compensation, but Dallas can demand two firsts which would likely run off most teams when it’s not for a franchise QB.

Or Micah.

How does he sign a contract with another team without negotiating?

He has to sign the tag.

Do you even remotely pay attention?Pickens agent made it very clear they weren't doing squat..... until around now.

That is not exactly what he said.

Your saying Jerry wanted to negotiate sooner and his agent said no???

No, but its easy in hindsight to judge. I said as soon as they got Pickens he was going to have 80 catches, 1200 yards and 8 tds. Very few in here predicted that. Had Jerry offered Pickens a deal in Oct for 28 to 30 million per season, he would have been crucified in here.
