Dallas Cowboy Signings

[jarntt]

I'm beginning to feel that Dak wants to be somewhere else

Who knows, but I don't get that feeling at all. I think it is obvious he is definitely trying to get every possible penny he can or this would already be done, but I also think he wants it to be here. Even if you think he wants to be elsewhere do you think there is any team in the league other than Dallas that this year will give him a 4 year deal at $35M plus? I think his chance to make the most money is in Dallas. Most teams are no longer in the position to hand out a huge deal to a QB this year

Dak wants 4 so he can sign one more big contract after this one.

I can't blame him.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

well if we force him to play under the tag this year then sign a 4 year deal it would still be 5 years long.
Think that is in the Cowboys favor.
but honestly I feel if he is forced to play under the tag. We just tag him one more time & look for his replacement. idont see any QB playing for a team that has tagged them twice.

You could be right. They did fire his Coach. Dak and JG were tight.

I think it started before JG's demise. I think he wanted out of Dallas

That is crazy talk. He just wants to get paid what he feels he is worth. Dak loves being the QB in dallas.

I believe the first part, he wants to be paid but I don't think he cares about being a Cowboy. He has turned out to be only concerned about his pocket and not about the team. Reminds me of others that could care less about how the team does

wow....just wow
thankfully it's ok if opinions vary on this board

Sorry if I went off the path. But greed does that

Most fans don’t side with Dak here on the negotiations because of what HE has said. He said he does not care about the money not the Jones’. They obviously care. Further, Dak did not deliver the goods in close games and lost 3 games where the other team was held under 20 points and was out played at home by other young QBs. He will be getting over 100 million regardless and his situation in Dallas allows him to make more. I would have been totally fine with him getting every dime but then don’t go telling people it is not about the money and win a big game or two and make the playoffs.

Randall Cobb explains why he left Cowboys for Texans, even after Mike McCarthy was hired by Dallas

He has 27 Million reasons why he left.

there is no path on this board, that would be the Rangers board and we both know that. You can go off the path here and land a few face palms. Do that on the rangers board and they come outta the woodwork to attack.


geed is an opinion not a fact. It was said today that Dallas offered the largest contract but not the largest guaranteed nor the largest average per year. Since this thread brought up 10 year deals...maybe Jerry offered 10 years at 10M per, that would be the largest contract without being the largest guaranteed or average.

Hers is my problem with Jerry. He leaks what he wants to the media to make Prescott look bad and prop himself up. That's no way to treat your franchise QB, a QB he's said on countless occasions is the unquestionable leader of this team and one he's certain can lead his team to a Super Bowl. When Romo's contract was up, Jerry said what are you looking for and it was done, but with Dak....he's holding firm with 5 years while Dak as asked for 4....money is the same per year but Jerry wants to play hard ball over a year? Jerry wants to keep his QB one year removed from bigger contract if he produces when everyone in football is saying with the new TV deal coming, QB money and the cap will explode over the next 3 to 4 years. Dak is doing what he's always done, he's betting on himself ( could play bad and go the other way in 4 years) and Jerry is talking a good game but coming off cheap when this guy is suppose to be the one he says will take his team to the promise land.

Look....I think it's crazy to say Dak wants to play for another team over the Cowboys, but he shouldn't be expected to roll over for the opportunity. Sure, Dallas QB's that play well get national sponsor opportunities. The key is they play well. Dak has a shit load of spokes person opportunities, more than Romo got when it was his time. Those come with playing well as the Cowboy QB, AND being the person you are. Romo spent a few years running around chasing celebrities and being in the lime light. Dak takes teammates out of town to work on their game. Huge ass difference and Jerry say's he's sees it but sure doesn't seem that way to me.

I don't get that vibe. He is the golden goose and he knows it. Gonna take it to the limit and why shouldn't he?

I'd like to see Dallas kick the tires for Dre Kirkpatrick

I remember wanting him in that 2012 draft.

He's been decent in coverage, just a little handsy. I'd take that guy paired with a highly drafted rook.

me too!!
I think Brown is the only corner signed past 2020. I say it every year but a corner with game is in high demand for this team

It would really open up the draft for us. There are some guys with potential on rounds 4-7, but with where this team is at CB right now they almost have to take a corner in the first two rounds, and if Diggs or Henderson are there in round 1, I don't know how you could pass.

Decent describes him well and coming off a knee injury. I suspect this is exactly the type of player Dallas would target because his market will be about half that of the higher rated DBs He would probably be our best corner walking in the door but upgrade still needed. If that happens via the draft he could be a good signing. I still would like to see this team sign a good player in his prime over a bargain player but adding Kirkpatrick and also another similar player would be a nice move for us.

I agree on opening the draft and that is what we have done so far with FA. We plugged our big holes (except of course for CB). I think Henderson gone before 17 but he would be the guy I hope for. I'm not sure about Diggs at #17. I think if it were him, whichever safety we liked best, one of the 3 WRs and maybe a pass rusher all on the board I would struggle taking him there.
