The Patriot way might work here.. We know the Cowboy way hasn’t worked.
The Cowboy way is paying an RB 15 mill a year.
The Cowboy way is making every decent free agent the highest paid at their position.
The Cowboy way is delaying Daks contract as long as possible only to eventually cave into his demands because they publicly give away any leverage they have.
STOP ALL YOU HATERS OF EE DEAL KEEP CALLING HIM A 15MIL RB..thats not accurate

Not true unlike Dak EE did at least allow Jerry to back load the deal and they came to the middle on guaranteed money but he wont be making 165 on AV until year 3 or 4 ..im no capologist but this was what we refer to a team friendly deal,
even if it were 15 a year and 54 guaranteed early on thats no where near the nonsense of playing a 2nd tier QB 120 Guaranteed on a4yr NON TEAM FRIENDY deal over 35 per that point to him coming up with his hand out for even more in 3-4 years..
15 and most likely last contract ever here as RB with one bit at the apple or 36-40 hmmm team friendly backloaded long deal or heavy guarantees on a non team friendly contract with the same players wanting to get broke off 4years later for even more..
apples and oranges..Daks playing hardball and hes not worth anything over 32 hes been offered.. rumors were they had a close 34aav deal done and it was rejected as he wasn't more guarantees and less years..
this has zero to do with Zeke, Tank, or Jsmith.. those are done but they at lease were willing to work with Jerry..
Daks the biggest holdout to getting back to amari or trying to save BJ with a tag.,
Daks a DB and thats that..Tom Brady and many other Pats did give team friendly deals TB never made more then 23 mil and really has made an avg of about 19 most of his career.. let me know when Dak wants to lay nice so we can do it the pats way..lmao TB 9 SB appetences never asked for more the n 23 but fr the most part was comfy at 17-19 and won 6 sbs and was happy to oblige..
Dak done squat wants 4yrs 120 guaranteed at 35+AAV... right..
theres no way to compare what they would or wouldn't have done in our situation because they never needed to be in it..
