It's not the player's responsibility to manage cap space. For the last few years the Cowboys have actually become a very well-managed team. They will figure it out.
If he wants to win championships it is. Yes Tom Brady is one of, if not the greatest of all time. But he continuously gave the Patriots favorable contract options for him so they had flexibility to get pieces they felt they needed to win. And they have.
Name me a QB in the last decade that won a super bowl AFTER they got a massive contract. It doesn't happen. These guys like Rodgers, Ryan, Wilson, Garoppolo, Stafford, Carr, Luck, Rodgers, Wentz, Newton. Those are your $100 million or more contract QBs. How many of those actually have a chance to win a Super Bowl this year? Wentz to me is the only one. The others ones don't have good enough TEAMS to win it.
Brady is worth more than he's getting and he knows that. If these QBs want to win Super Bowls they would give up their big contracts and take less. Sure it's not technically their job to manage cap space. But if they truly want to be the best they will because they best QBs have one certain thing in common. Championships
You think Dak will be remembered as anything but an average QB if he never wins a Super bowl? Or even gets to one? No. They don't have the horses to get there right now and if they have to pay Dak, Zeke, and Cooper big bucks they certainly have no shot to get there. He should take $20 million and let the team use the rest to get him the pieces they need. I would rather make less salary and have a better chance at winning championships because ultimately that's where the fame comes from.
Don't get me wrong. Love Dak. Great Bulldawg. But balking at $30 million? That's not smart if he's trying to get more.
