Gosh I hate to agree with HK, but he's dead on IMHO

He is good, but $30M+ is sacrificing a lot of talent at other positions. But I'll admit that I'm guilty of saying to pay him but being reticent now. I think it's different when I'm thinking pay him and make him the 10th highest QB, but when you offer him top 5 money and he says no, then I'd tell him to play for the tag or sit his arse on the beach in cabo and make nothing.

I'd let it pass and make a statement...mediocre doesn't = $$$

There needs to be an owner with the balls to put an end to these ridiculous salary requests.

My 2 cents.... Before McCarthy even took the job he said he wanted to go somewhere with a really good young quarterback. He found that in Dallas. Do y’all really think he would be ok with losing Dak and having Brady? Think about it.... he wants to win a Super Bowl with another team. If he wins with Dak he did something. If he wins with Brady everyone will just say Brady came to Dallas and won them a Super Bowl. I don’t see this being good with McCarthy at all.

If Dak was on the market I bet there would not be more than maybe 1 team that would even consider paying him 35M , I wish they would just let him find out what he is worth, my money says he would be humbled.

If Dak is ready to sign for $35 million a year Dallas needs to do it now!

Dallas needs to sign Teddy Bridgewater. Dak is just not that good. It really is quite simple. He is not that good. Never been that good. He's not terrible, but just not that good.

No way in hell I would pay dak 35 mill a year. Because one franchise [censored] the bed and over paid an average qb doesnt mean everyone should

So NFL quarterbacks grow on trees? Do you really think Dallas is ready to go back to the Quincy Carter days? Mahomes is fixing to get close to $45 million a year. $35 million a year will look good in 2 to 3 years. The salary cap is going up every year.

I agree, he is a decent qb but he just doesnt seem to have that "thing" that makes a great QB. The great ones put their whole team on their back and find a way to win, I haven't seen that with Dak. My $.02 is the talent in the draft the next 2 years will be better than Dak.

What pro bowlers other than his line who is mostly locked up for the next few years? Cooper? He disappeared towards the end of the season.

The FO has screwed this all up by not signing him in 2019 and now Dak has the upper hand

- Mahomes, Jackson, Wilson, Prescott - sense a trend developing as in young, athletic, mobil QBs?

- If Dak isn’t the answer at QB, the Cowboys have a long road ahead of them

- He has proven himself and deserves to be paid, especially in consideration of his rookie contract

- He had a career year, #1 offense in the league, #2 in passing yards and that’s with Cowboy receivers with 36 drops, the most in the league

- EZE and DLaw got their money, Cooper will get his, and now it’s Dak’s turn

- Without a contract, you can forget him going to OTAs and training camp. McCarthy will be thrilled with that

- Go ahead and tag him and write a check for $25M. ALL that money comes in one lump sum off the 2020 cap

- Dak sits and go ahead and run out that skinny legged white boy and tell me how works for you

You do realize that we won the same number of championships with Quincy as we did with Tony and Dak. Actually same number of NFC championship appearances as well. My point - you can't overpay a mediocre QB, or you won't have the talent to get anywhere. You're just as good having a crummy QB and hoping to hit a couple of draft picks. Mediocre QBs at high salaries are not SB-winners, the vast, vast majority of the time.

The starting offense for the cowboys had 34 pro bowl appearances, just counting the 10 players other than Dak.

If you can't win with that, you can't win. $35M is pure stupidity.

You keep saying to sign him now for way more than he's worth because in 5 years he will be worth it. Makes zero sense The Cowboys have to quit throwing great money to average players.
