Dak Prescott turns down record breaking contract.

I like Dak as a QB, but I don't like him at $45M a year.  In fact, I don't like him at $35M a year.  He needs to prove he can step up to the challenge in big games in order to command that kind of money.  Too often I've seen him disappear.

But, if he is going to get it from anybody, it will be Jerruh.

I got no issue with it. Also this really helps us..... We are a LONG way away from a 2nd contract for our Franchise QB.

 

Competitive advantage!??!?!?!?!

No they don't. There's already a hard salary cap in place. If teams want to hamstring themselves by terribly overpaying players that's on them. I'd much rather have it that way than institute max contract stipulations and see the marquee teams load up on elite talent because smaller markets don't even have the option of overpaying them.

    • This is a toughie because I wonder what a guy like Canales thinks about redemption stories for addiction issues. Also, I think this is a case of 1 player getting caught, and not being naive enough to think this isn't more common in college than we think. I'd toss a 3rd rounder out there. 2026 is essentially a redshirt season regardless, so he's not taking over for any NFL QB next year. Best case, he's ready to go in 2027 if we pass on Bryce's extension. Worst case, he's our future backup QB2. Kid has the tools to be an NFL QB. I do think we could somehow land a '26 3rd round pick back in a trade. Our past years' third rounders are: Brazzell Princely Wallace DJ Johnson Matt Corral All this to say, I could see a team like the Jets going w/ a 2nd. They have three FRPs next year.
    • Alright man! We're here for it! Just glad you're keeping the doors open!
    • I think we've seen improvement in Bryce's performance. It still isn't up to world beater status, but in Canales defense, he can say that the limitations of the player were hit. I think he survives that even if Bryce doesn't. Still, I think it's a 50/50 shot for Bryce to make it. QB is one of the toughest jobs to do in the sports world, if not the most, so the failure rate is really high, no matter the pedigree. Heck, Archie Manning gets a lot of credit as a great QB but anyone who saw his career in motion knows he wasn't really that good and he was surrounded by bottom of the bowl players. He did get it figured out with his sons, though. That grandson... maybe.
