Once the team has already tagged him at $10M, the only way I see them signing him for less than $10M per is if he gets most of the deal guaranteed
I guess if he is going to compare last year's squad to the 90's teams, comparing Dak to Brady is in the same ballpark
The 90’s Bills teams that went to the SB 4 years in a row would wipe the floor with last years team, let alone the 90’s Cowboys. Sometimes I have to think Jerry says that crap for headlines and nothing more.
For reporters, those bus media sessions are pure gold. For we fans, it's cringe inducing and rampant with pain.
Yeah the would
Dallas is ready to place the second-round tender on Steele to keep him in the Cowboys, according to Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News. That’s because the offensive tackle will only be a restricted free agent for having three accrued seasons. Other rivals can still make offers to him, but Dallas have the option to match them. The contract would be worth 4.3 million dollars.
If I were another team I would sign him in a heart beat. Cowboys should have used the 1st round tender
Yeah, I don’t really get this. We can match of course, but instead of paying a couple million more for next year with the first round tender, we may end up paying him more than double that. Hopefully this one works out for us. I’d prefer to just lock him up long term right now but worry what some other team may offer him
Really another strange move by this club. If I'm the Bears, and I have extra picks and tons of cap space and a bad OL, I jump on Steele for a 2nd round tender and offer him top 3 RT money and really put the Cowboys in a bind
pass then
I agree, but at least we get a 1st round pick if he walks with that tender and would have only paid him about $5M in the process
Steele's injury may cause other teams to not invest. Not bashing Steele who proved me wrong. The only young player that got noticably better under the previous OL coach. I am starting to think that had more to do with Steele's crazy wing span than coaching.
Wilson could be very expensive.. Cowboys could be getting several comp picks when Wilson,Schultz ,LVE leave. LVE would have best chance to return out of the 3. LVE has that injury history
If I remember correctly the Cowboys were called by multiple teams last off-season who were interested in Steele
Steele is a Heck of a run blocker. Once he went out the run gane wasn't the same. I know the Cowboys love him, but I just worry Jerry and Stephen are trying to get too cute again. The only reason you place a 2nd round tender instead of a 1st is it saves you pay him $3M this year instead of $5-6M. I hope it doesn't bite them in the butt.
We didn't want Goedert. That was a bizarre rumor started by Eagles fans because we needed a TE (we should have wanted him of course) and it made them feel like they one-upped their crush. Johnson isn't retiring
