Will Diggs get paid based off of 2022?

Nope, not until he loses that FETUS STYLE tackling technique!

Don't get me wrong here because I think 80% of your post is accurate, but I have to disagree with teams being penalized. I think they get penalized when they overpay for their own players simply because they drafted them and they sell jerseys. Diggs is a great example of that. They have a player here that they spent a 2nd round pick on and now have maybe the most valuable CB in the league given his performance/ceiling/contract. They don't have to sign him, and could easily cash in on that value and get a pile of assets and cap freedom coming back their way, much like KC did with Tyreek Hill last offseason.

Prioritizing the draft is an excellent thing, and I love how well the Cowboys have drafted over the last decade or so. The problem is after you still have assets that fluctuate in value and on occasion you have to be willing to cash in on some of those assets. Instead Jerry tends to sell players at their lowest value like Amari Cooper.

I agree, but this is based on the reality that comes with the CAP and free agency. I am sure, for example, teams would prefer to keep the all-pro players they drafted rather than see them leave for free agency. It is just not possible today so teams prioritize, and even then may lose players they hoped to keep.

I can compound this by saying that teams that are bad at drafting wind up not having to pay top dollar to retain the layers they drafted. So they have CAP room to sign away the better players someone else drafted and can't afford.

This system works for the league because they want parity. Bad teams draft first. Good teams draft last. Good players are more expensive than bad one so teams that draft well have to give up some of their talent to the teams that draft poorly.

Overpaying players is a problem specific to the front offices of some teams.
 
Riggs is getting paid like a top 5 corner imo.
 
He may never have that miracle year of INT and its not realistic to expect that. What you have to look at is how many catches he gave up, INT, etc compare to the other CBs . Basically where does he rank amongst his peers and pay him according to that.
 
Players usually get paid based off their most recent season.
 
i wouldn't pay i would trade him right now, there are tow many good corner backs in this draft and if you were a good gm which they are not, trade him for a first or a 2nd and a fourth if you could find a trade partner he's trouble coming now i don't expect him to stand up to an offensive lineman but he whiffs on running back and wide receivers he takes to many chances with receivers and gets burned and if you don't believe me look at the tape he makes a lot of bad plays and a lot of buss. decisions out there so to save the team a lot of problems get rid of him

IDK man.........I have a hard time paying this position $25M a year unless he's a true proven shut-down CB. It's a position where stats and performance fluctuate. If you compare the top 5 CBs over the last 5 years, they are all over the place. Like you said, can you get the same thing from a player in the $10-15M range? I think you can.....

Are you related to the Joneses?

I wonder if the ones in this draft are as good as Kelvin Joseph. Maybe you think Dallas is so great at drafting that it won't get a Kelvin Joseph, but it did.

Keep our top players. If you want to replace them, then draft to replace them while you still have them and if the player proves he can do it, then cycle out the player who would get a big contract.
 
i think a lot of people are like stephen a. has reported i don't like him but sometimes he tells the truth and some people just don't want to face reality that this team is full of choke artist and there are a few of the team that try to make a difference but not of enough of them most will do buss. decisions because they know the jones will pay them with enough arm twisting. and some body wanted to know if i was related to the jones no i'm outsider looking in as all of you are and no matter how many mock drafts you do it means nothing and if you haven't realize that by now i feel sorry for you

I think you'd be much better off if you didn't listen to a word Stephen A. has to say. He is about shock value, not actually evaluating players.
 
He will get paid because he's a good corner and he's homegrown.

Some will tell you he was actually a better player (CB) this season than last with all the interceptions.

Here are his stats......noticed his tackles ( sole and assist ) are about the same but his real improvement came from yards allowed. He reduced that to 600 from 900 in 2021.

You give up big plays, QBs are going to be happier throwing the ball your way, giving you more chances at an INT.

I hope we let him walk and not hand him a huge contract. when he gambled and got interceptions, he gave up yards and big plays. when he started to not gamble, he didn't get interceptions and was slightly above average. he can't tackle if his life depended on it. I have seen 6 year old girls tackle better. he is not worth a big contract
 
We should be preparing for life without Diggs b/c that dude is about to holdout for a contract extension and we should let him. He is not a shut down cb. He is a playmaker who gambles too much and gives up as many plays as he makes. Furthermore, he doesn't like to tackle and makes a lot of business decisions on the field. He is the guy you hold to his rookie contract or trade.
