Like i saod before they are screwed. 3 offensive players basically want the top dollar for their position and none of them are worth it. 2 out of 3 of the positions hardly matter. People laughed at Cooper for a 1st saying Cooper sucks. Nah wrong....but the real point was that he was going to have to be paid if he performed. Cowboys are dumb. Again. Yep. They are focked and it was easy to see coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People laughed at Cooper for a 1st saying Cooper sucks. Nah wrong....but the real point was that he was going to have to be paid if he performed. Cowboys are dumb. Again. Dak asking for $40m a year doesn't appear to be true. According to Fish and other local beat writers - this is a story spun out of control What Jerry and Co. have officially stated is that they've offered Dak/Zeke/Amari top 5 money at their positions. Jerry and Stephen have also stated (in regards to Zeke) that they're not going to reset the RB market - which implies they will not offer to make Zeke the highest paid RB in the league. But I do agree on one thing - Dallas is on the verge of acting stupid..............again. You simply can not have 35% of your Cap tied up in a backfield. Especially when the QB,. AT BEST, is average................ If Dallas were smart they'd mule Zeke out then let him go, then franchise Dak as long as they can - all the wile looking for a new/real NFL qb to lead this team. The problem is - this Dallas team (although not great) is too good for their good... This Dallas team will be in the mix for a Division title and possible playoff spot. The chances of finding a QB from where'd they be drafting is almost nil.. So we're either stuck with $32m a year Dak - or offer up the farm and future #1s in a trade.

They'd need to get lucky with a late round pick and land a future superstar QB. I just don't see an easy way out of this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted August 13, 2019 A title window is short. Even the 90s Cowboys only had a 4 year window. The REAL problem here is they laid an egg vs the Rams in the playoffs last year. They had assembled a nice team. They needed to go places with it. But they got outcoached. If they made the Super Bowl last season, its easier to approach this with a clear head. But then again, if you want a title, you sign with the Patriots. If you want drama, you sign with the Cowboys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only negative is that we finally have a defense - I mean this unit might be borderline nasty. Be a damn shame to waste it..... Then again, even with it - I've zero faith in Dak to lead them to a SB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeke has been one of the best playing on a chump change rookie deal. If im the Cowboys, no way you can pay dak top five money. He simply isn't top ten, let alone top five. Let him walk. Its the same boat my Titans are in. Mariota and likely Henry will be gone at the end of the year. Neither one of them are worth market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
