Nope, sorry for whatever reason I dont get your jumble of words as a coherent point/argument. However, if the sum of your response is "agenda" argument, to my points in # 92, which is a fairly clear argument as to why the Herbert/Dak contract extension's arent similar, then I guess I shouldnt be surprised that that I never understand you.
You don't see the need of protecting with adequate considerations if in fact Dak Prescott DOES succeed as planned.
Dak’s last Pro Bowl was 2018.
My point's arent as an attack on Dak, it's that the Herbert deal doesnt make it easier to get the Dak deal over the line.
That statement does stand on itself...but disjointed in a conversation that includes expansion of procedures just having occurred in San Diego that does give credability for future inclusion of Dak Prescott. And it does point to a strong ability for Dallas in current negotiations when one looks at the recently signed cornerback contract and what appears to be going on with a potential renegotiation involving Martin as well.
Again, Digg's contract (and even Martin's displeasure) arent in the same ballpark as Dak's situation. Digg's (as with Herbert) is an easy, pay him/dont pay him (negotiate the years).....with Dak (if history's going to be repeated) the negotiations will involve length of contract, deferred money ($62m) that has to be catered for and that Dallas havent an alternative.
You are simply assuming a non-stop flow of what I haven't stated nor attempted to state...the OP that was quoted is not what you are offering as my statements.
The irony here.You can't expect fans with Middle School brains and have learned football from Madden to grow up!
No, not everyone. Nothing wrong with criticism....it's the Hate and constant hi-jacking of threads, just to bash on their QB....
There is not a single core player Dallas cannot keep while paying Dak. The thing about them not being active in free agency is that it basically means they can keep their core together. While the weakness of not going in during a window, either Dak's rookie deal or with the young core of Micah and Diggs and Lamb, is that you are not going to be as talented, and therefore less likely to win, against teams that did go all in, but the strength is that you can keep your core together pretty easily.
Look I hate to keep bringing this up you do realize there's three to four running backs on every team there's 32 teams let's just keep it at three what is that 100 running backs they're only 32 kickers of course the average is going to be brought way down on running back pay when you have to divide it by three times the amount of players who are diluting the average pay scale if you look at the starting money there is no kicker that even makes close to the $6 million most starters are making you know the top starters.. Basic math says stop comparing kickers to running backs in their salaries because they're nowhere close.. Again yes the bottom 40 running backs are dragging the average down but most running backs starting running backs worth their salt you know who started all this conversation like saquan Barkley you're trying to tell me that even with the franchise tag at 10 million and some say that that's kicker money are you serious that's three salaries for a kicker most kickers don't make$3 million even the best ones that's about the highest pay for most kickers.. It's been obvious to the league and to the owners that the running back position is a little easier to replace nowadays and they get hurt more often they get wore down more often and they're gonna pay that position less because it's easier to replace. Why would those salaries go up? You do realize that saquan Barkley is making probably twice as much as Emmett Smith did back then so don't say the salaries haven't gone up and when you look at how overpaid Christian McCaffrey and Kamara were who were the last two big name running backs to get paid and then they do what nothing but get hurt and under achieve when it comes to their salaries everyone wants to talk about Elliot why don't you look at what McCaffrey did in 2020 and 2021 and the first half of 2022 really those three years together, that was elliott's rookie year.. This is what's driving down the market is they literally got paid too much too quick and now it's settled back down to reality... I'm not gonna feel bad for dudes making $6 million a year or more I don't even gonna feel bad for the dudes making 1.8 million whatever the average running back makes most of those guys look at what Philadelphia paid their guys all of them together but if you look at their injury histories you look at how often they've missed games I mean that actually is what they should be getting paid given the fact that they haven't proven that they can stay on the field consistently and they don't give money back when they're hurt by the way I mean saquan Barkley would owe the league a lot so would Christian McCaffrey to pay their team back when they're injured and not playing. since that doesn't happen I think owners have seeing this in a different light and go guys are gonna get hurt a lot and they're gonna be missing games and underperforming why should we pay $16 million to a player we can replace with for half that or less?
Never say never and by the way add Camaro to that list they've been plenty of backs after Elliot the Elliot can be taken off that four horsemen meme and you could put in McCaffrey and Kamara as the last two that really affected the running back market... But on the flip side of that it's not as if Derek Henry cooks or Jones did terribly bad after getting paid so there's always some alternate opinions but I think the market got out of control and now it's stabilized.. It is very simple to weigh regular life happens with stocks and bonds and things like gas and electricity they fluctuate and in this case right now they're getting paid a little less but they could compare them to a kicker is ridiculous because again the math does not add up...
I'm not sure the first point is really much of a factor. I doubt Dak was ever opposed to signing a deal early as long as it was near the top of the market. I just don't think Jerry was offering that when he first started negotiating with Dak the last time.
Cool. He has never taken up 20% of the cap, not even close. They've never even had to get rid of anyone significant because of it.
