Think you're right. Taking off my homer glasses, 30 mil a year sounds fair for Dak.Quote:

Without knowing the years and guaranteed money, throwing out that number is almost worthless. Also, is that number with bonuses or just straight salary? I think it was Kapernick that signed his last contract for above $20 Mil but it had almost zero guaranteed.
I'd bet money this story was leaked by the Jones' as a media ploy to put pressure on Dak....people see "turned down $30 mil" and lose their shit, but the numbers that really matter (i.e., total years, and guaranteed $$) are conveniently left out of the story.
Beat me to it, lol.Quote:

Remember, 3 years ago Mike Conley inked the largest contract in NBA history? And they were able to trade that contract. Long since eclipsed and now forgotten.
There's no hurry for Dak except to get it done before the regular season starts.
Yeah, that's insane. People just want to shit on Dak to justify their original assessment behind him being a 4th round pick. The standard he's held to in comparison with his peers is absolutely ridiculous. People say "you take away his best o-linemen, hes not as good", "you take away his #1 WR, hes not as good", "you take away his running game, hes not as good"....lol, yeah...that applies to every QB (Rogers missed couldn't "elevate" his team to the playoffs last year...guess he sucks); this is football, not magic.Quote:

2) that Scott Linehan was about as unimaginative a playcaller you could find, outside of the 1980s. Lets see how that offense looks now...
3) despite people labeling the Offensive Line as "one of the best in the game", the LT has been a shell of himself (with zero options to back him up), the starting RG retired before last season, and last year the all pro C missed the entire season due to illness.
YES, YES, YES! Jerry been playing this game a long time. Of course he wants to make Dak look greedy and the poor ol' Cowboys are trying so hard to make him happy. Jerry propaganda.Quote:

NFL only football fans seem to be insufferable douches.
I saw it posted somewhere a few days ago that opposing defenses loaded the box only 24% of the time against the Cowboys last year. That says one of two things; either that vaunted OL isn't forcing opposing defenses to commit much to stop the run, or, at best, the threat defenses feel from Dak vs. Zeke isn't nearly as lopsided as most seem to believe.Quote:

Asking for 40 per. Wow, I think he's begging for the cowboys to just tell him play out his contractQuote:

I don't believe he's asking for that amount.Quote:
