Dak free agent next year

Archer : 4/2/2024 6:45 pm
It appears that Dak and the Cowboys are at an impasse.
Dak will be a free agent next year.
The Cowboys cannot franchise him as the cost would be prohibitive

What say you?
Draft Nabers and get Dak next year.

I cannot imagine a better scenario.
I know it is hard to welcome a Cowboy to the Giants but Barkley is an Eagle.

If he can’t win with loses Dallas teams  
JT039 : 4/2/2024 6:47 pm : link
Why would you expect him to win here??
He will cost a fortune...  
Amtoft : 4/2/2024 6:48 pm : link
He doesn't play well in big games. No guarantee we could get him. He might want to go to NE or another team that is better setup than us.
no  
Rod in St Cloud : 4/2/2024 6:49 pm : link
Drafting a rookie QB is more cost-efficient unless you think he is the missing piece to launch us to the Super Bowl. I don't!
...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 4/2/2024 6:50 pm : link
Well, he doesn't shine when the spotlight is the brightest. But-good thing for him-is that we play 'big games' like once every decade.
Horrible

.
I’d rather just play with Locke  
UConn4523 : 4/2/2024 6:53 pm : link
Dak long term at $55/$60m might get me to stop watching the Giants.
I'm concerned not drafting QB  
Sean : 4/2/2024 6:55 pm : link
Will lead to a desperation QB move like Dak.
Dak cannot win  
section125 : 4/2/2024 6:58 pm : link
with the Cowboys. He will not do better in MetLife.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha  
BrianLeonard23 : 4/2/2024 7:03 pm : link
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
This would be a terrible idea  
LW_Giants : 4/2/2024 7:07 pm : link
He’ll tie up almost all our cap, and hasn’t been able to make a deep playoff run in his career despite consistently having one of the best offensive lines and offensive weapons in the game.
Most overpaid QB in football

please no
I hated this thread before opening it lmao

Not a terrible idea but just no haha.
Zak  
Archer : 4/2/2024 7:17 pm : link
Zak may be the best in-season QB in the NFL.
I doubt that any QB we draft will be nearly as good.

This is my fear as well. Get a QB to develop who is coming into his prime as this team’s window opens, don’t wait until the window is open to look around to see who might be able to play QB.

Agreed. Dak is a good, productive QB in the NFL, but he's been hitting his head on his ceiling for years. Same with Cousins.

But kudos to Team Dak and Team Cousins for squeezing the most out of the system financially.
Draft

If a qb like Bo Nix or Penix slips to Dallas’ 24th pick, do you think they’d draft him and let him sit a year behind Dak?

They are already doing this with Lance.

Dallas doesn't play their starters in the preseason. Expect to see Lance get the majority of snaps in the preseason games.

Since Dallas did nothing in free agency they will not use ANY draft pick on QB.

2025 will be a very interesting year for Dallas.
He’s probably only cost 15% more so than Jones  
Metnut : 4/2/2024 8:17 pm : link
Of the Giants get a WR1 in this draft and fix the OL, I think they could contend with Prescott if they’re able to put together a strong defense.

Dallas had some bad playoff games but Prescott had a really strong year last year and they won 12 games.

They went to the Matt Ryan school of finance.
Umm yeah  
Formerly TD : 4/2/2024 8:24 pm : link
No.

He’s just a step or two up from DJ. Mid tier who looks top tier at times strictly due to the supporting cast. You need better if you want to win a Lombardi.

He would cost more than 15% - his market value now on the low end is probably 25%, and will likely be more in less than 12 month. And you’d need to sign him for 4/5 years. Don’t know why we’d do this, just draft anyone next year, throw a dart if you have to.

You’re higher than soaring eagle pussy if you believe Dak is only one or two steps above DJ, he is significantly better

lol I basically agree. Dak is certainly good but fuck that noise. The big playoff game sample size is too big to ignore. Too many oh shit lol moments in January.
Just what we need

No Dak.  
BleedBlue46 : 4/3/2024 1:21 am : link
He doesn't have that clutch factor. Never shows up in the big games, plus he will be expensive. Love the higher than soaring eagle pussy remark tho haha
Oh my gosh  
mfjmfj : 4/3/2024 8:52 am : link
this would be awful. He is a good QB who looks much better by being surrounded by excellent talent. I would happily take him at 4 years/$100MM. I think he gets at least twice that, which will be a huge overpay.

Indeed. Hard to believe some of these hot takes. Almost every season of Dak's career is better than Jones' best season.
Some folks are so petrified  
SirLoinOfBeef : 4/3/2024 9:23 am : link
of drafting a QB they'll do anything...

Dak Prescott??... Really??
First off Dak cannot be tagged as it is written in his contract  
Rick in Dallas : 4/3/2024 9:32 am : link
Not because of the prohibitive cost.
He cannot be traded either as that is also written in his contract.
Dak has all the leverage this time in negotiations with Jerrah as payback for being tagged twice.
Dak and his agent will be looking for a contract with a AAV over $55million.
BTW, comments about Lance this past season as a Cowboy are almost non existent.
Their are some rumors down here the Cowboys would like to add him into a draft day trade.
Cooper Rush is also in his last contract year.
To say the Cowboys would not use a late round pick on a developmental QB is not correct.
