(NFL News) Dak Prescott Turns Down $33 Million Annually


Mr Mojo Risin

No way Prescott is worth that much let alone more. Past his 2016 rookie year (which gave us Romo as the best NFL commentator ever, thanks Dak!) he has struggled. No playoffs. His record is 29-25 since then. The other QBs in his draft class have fared far better than him, Goff and Wentz.

The tougher, more time-consuming decision is finding a figure that fits Prescott as the architect of this team’s wins and losses in the next decade. If that number is higher in any significant way than what Goff ($33.5 million average) or Wentz ($32 million) have received, Jerry’s fairy-tale imagination is running away from him again.

If you’re a QB and take a contract that large you better not complain when you and you’re team can’t win. 1 player taking up more than a quarter of the salary cap is just insane.

The CBA is going to have to raise the Cap quite a bit to allow this kind of deal to go through regularly. Owners may not want to pay that but who knows. Good time to have the richest owner in the NFL for sure.

If mahomes is expected to get a 300mil dollar contract for 6 years. I’d be doing what daK is and getting damn near close.

If that’s remotely true then I’m more than ready to trade Cam. I can’t see how you can keep a team paying a franchise QB 25% of your cap. Almost forces you to win on a rookie deal plus 5th year option/6th year franchise deal and rollover the savings from year 1-4 to try and win in the first 6 years.

Dak is a good QB surrounded by great offensive talent. I think he's a top 10-15 QB. I don't think you can afford to cap strap your franchise to pay the guy that kind of money. He can't carry an offense after you have to let some of that great talent walk because you can't afford to pay them too.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
