A 4th rounder next year dampened your excitement? Incredible

I'm fine with it up to a point. With four years left, he doesn't have a ton of leverage.

I'll re-do his deal, but being he's got four years left, he's gonna take less than what he would get based on his production. Add another year, some more guaranteed money, and incentive based numbers to pump it up to look like he's got a top deal.

Hahaha! Diggs is better and on a much better deal

You're an idiot

BOOM!

Clowney is as good as it gets from a DE. Ngakoue wants the same money, you have to give up draft picks, and isn't as good. If you don't want Clowney, you don't want Ngakoue either

This one stings. Exactly what we needed

Seriously. Another midget that Allen can whizz balls over his head...no thanks

Yes. I'm in that area, and he was good until he hurt his shoulder, but then missed way more time than expected. I'm ok with him at a modest price, but not alot of guarantees or years

After this contract, I've changed my tune on Dak. Pay him what he wants because he deserves a whole lot more than this guy

?? Titans will not be scaring anyone as long as Tannehill is the QB.

Hahaha! Seems as if Tommy already overplayed his hand and grossly overestimated himself and what he could get. Maybe he'll try and play the good soldier card again if he goes back to NE for less, but everyone can clearly see if he goes back, it's because he came crawling back with his tail between his legs. Then hopefully we can finish the job and put out to pasture playing his worst football and being our B word.

Baltimore can have a old, declining player on a big money deal. Bills will continue to build with younger, cheaper players that have promise

This tells me they are really gonna go after some wideouts and probably a RB also. We were told they were gonna upgrade the offense, and so far it's been keeping the same cast of characters.

Absolutely. Terrible post from that person I do think there's an argument to be made where you could debate the value between Shaq vs Ngakoue. One is better than the other as a pass rusher as opposed to the run and vice versa, but Shaq has played less snap vs pass rush having more value. Figure in having to pay double for Ngakoue and I actually think I'd rather have Shaq, but that's certainly worth debate. Now Clowney on the other hand is a complete player and game changer. No debating he's clearly the top guy out there, and I'd have ZERO issue paying him 20 mil per year with 60-80 mil guaranteed.

Again...reading comprehension. I said he carries that team now. They were stronger when they had all those studs on defense (Wilson's deal played a part in losing them). They have stayed relevant with Wilson and he gives you a shot. But Dak is no Wilson...make no mistake about that.

My definition is just fine. Reading comprehension would have had you understand that I said that their line was bad for a few years after the deal which had them take a step back. They seem to have figured it out now, but they are not the same team as when they were a true threat to win it all. Wilson carries them for the most part...something Dak can't do even with an all pro supporting cast. You are clearly the type that wants to settle for the safe option and stick with what you know. I'm more of the all or nothing type. It depends on what you're looking for from your franchise. I understand where your coming from...even if I don't subscribe to that philosophy.

Pereira is full of crap and clearly didn't know the rules then.

Actually, I was ok with Wilson getting paid because he proved he could win. I did believe that it would hurt their roster and they wouldn't be as good, and that was true. His line was patchwork for a few years after and it hurt them. Dallas will get weaker after a Dak deal and they weren't even a playoff team last season with a very soft schedule. Dak has an argument to get a paid...I won't dispute that. What I dispute is whether it's a good move for the Cowboys, and I don't believe it will be. Like anything else, time will tell

Completely agree. The nature of the business is that you get paid for what the team thinks you will be worth, not based on over performing your current deal. He looks to be showing signs of decline to me also, so I'd be hesitant to do much for him besides a team friendly deal with maybe more guaranteed money and a slight increase in salary.

Always funny to read a triggered post that ends with condescending remarks to other posters. Your idea of what is best for Dallas is no better than his idea. Fact is neither has been proven to be the formula to success, and I'd argue yours has history firmly against sticking with the guy that hasn't won squat and paid him top dollar, but that's neither here or there. At least tearing it down will give them a shot at building the team and possibly finding a comparable if not better option down the road while the QB is not eating up a huge portion of cap space. It'll be fun to re-visit this one in a year or two. My money is on Dallas being the same disappointment that they've been with most saying paying Dak was a mistake.

Don't see any team dealing for that unless it's a 4th/5th rounder.

I'm all for giving Foster a last shot...the kid has some serious burst, and has shown some connection with Allen. Gonna have to show more though to stay on this roster this upcoming season
