“ I’m hearing whispers that Dax Prescott is close to closing a 4-year deal with DAL rumored to be $35m per year.”

Just being technical.

This wouldn't be an extension. This would just be a new contract. But $35 per year ... Hahahaha
Great news doe Giants fans  
LauderdaleMatty : 3/25/2020 6:28 pm : link
4 years of mediocrity while that OL Continues to degrade and Elliot gets older. They will need that defense to be a good as it was and IMO major drop off from Marinelli to Nolan

And yes you’re right. And yes it would be amazing if they tied up that much money for someone of his mediocrity.

Long run, paying Dak $35M/year will prove to be an atrocity. Short term, it probably means a few more 8-10 win seasons before the shit hits the fan. I just hope in that short term, they’re not racking up more season sweeps of the NYG...

True. Having to rely on other teams to put them down is beyond painful. Not that im The biggest Garrett fan but I don’t see any real upgrades on that coaching staff. Losing Fredricks hurts them and Tyron Smith is moving into Chris Snee territory as his body is breaking down. Again their D is the strength and with this shut down I think they regress a ton on that side
The cowturds will have a lot of money wrapped in about 6 players  
Jack Stroud : 3/25/2020 7:37 pm : link
how is they seem to always come up with the money to pay players beyond the cap?
That's a ton of money  
emcca005 : 3/25/2020 8:55 pm : link
I'm glad to see them lock up so much money in a handful of players, hopefully it does indeed hamstring them down the road. However, how many QBs would you choose over Dak right now? For me it's a pretty short list. Mahomes, Wilson, Rodgers, Brees, Watson, and maybe Brady. Lamar is right on the cusp. That's only for one year, looking long term that list trims to 3 really quickly.

I’d take Josh Allen over him now. Wentz too. And there’s A guy like Goff whom I don’t love but I think is the pretty much the same level. It’s pretty simple. No team prepares for to stop Dak. They want to stop Elliot. Just because there are tally of great QBs means you over pay Dak. That’s what screwed teams like Minny and and is Bengals who locked up meh QBs

That's fair. I left Wentz off because I believe the best ability is availability. I could make an argument for Allen long term but same situation as Lamar to me I need to see more. You are right though that teams don't prepare to stop Dak. My point about paying him is that there aren't necessarily better options available so you secure what you can.
I certainly question  
santacruzom : 3/25/2020 9:37 pm : link
Whether he is worth 35 million a year, but let's not be absurd and say you are buy mediocrity with that contract.
Man, I'd sign right up for a Dak Prescott!  
Rafflee : 3/25/2020 9:40 pm : link
I hope Jones can be as good! This idea that Dak Sucks???..... Nonsense. He's young and he's good.
Come back to this thread  
fanatic II : 3/25/2020 9:51 pm : link
In four years when Jones is asking for 50+million or what the market is paying at the time.

Yep
Best news as a Giants fan  
NYG007 : 3/26/2020 9:35 am : link
He kills us, late, because our D and system were absolute trash. He is not a top QB, at all. Hell, give him 40m!

For 1 season I would take Zak Prescott over DJ8, for a career franchise I would take DJ8 - his floor seems to be Zak Prescott as long he fixes his dainty fingers.
Amazed how most of you downgrade Dak  
Rick in Dallas : 3/26/2020 10:03 am : link
IMHO he is definitely a top 10 QB in the NFL. Did you know Dak suffered the most dropped passes in 2019 at 36. He would have had a top 5 QBR.
Plus nobody is taking into account his mobility and running ability.
For a 4th round pick terrific 4 seasons.
My only wish as a Cowboy hater is that he doesn’t lead them to a SB.
Don’t blame Cowboys for paying him.
Wait until Mahomes contract negotiations. It will dwarf what Dak is going to get paid.

If Jones is up for his 2nd contract and is only as good as Dak Prescott the Giants should let him walk. Prescott is replacement level.

Prescott still had one of the NFL's best offensive lines - even if they aren't at their peak anymore, a monster RB behind him in Elliott, and good receivers. For a comparison, name one guy on our offense who absolutely, without debate, would start for the Cowboys on offense.

Rick in Dallas : 3/26/2020 7:43 pm : link
Your question about our offensive players reflects on the sad state of our roster and why we our one of the worst teams in the league.
Dallas has a potent offense but a very average defense. That’s why they are middle of the pack team in the NFL.
It’s not all on Dak and I stand on my opinion that he is a top 10 QB in the league.
Everyone has their own opinion

Damn, that last statement is depressingly accurate.

Regarding Dak though, I agree with Rick in Dallas
