N/S Dak Prescott

First off I hope he is ok and is able to bounce back from this, I hate to see an injury like that to any player. I always thought he would do very well in a Saints uniform under Payton and would still love to see him here if he recovers. He was holding out for $45 mil before he was tagged which may have been steep for us given the players we need to sign this offseason. I can see this being a situation where we could get him at a fair price on a two year deal. Hill will be there if Dak isn’t ready until later in the season. Could be a win/win. It’s a sad situation. Franchise tag players worst nightmare. Thoughts?

Re: N/S Dak Prescott

The Cowboys have to be thrilled. They didn’t give him the big $$ contract and now he’s damaged goods. I think it’s disgusting and the franchise tag should be abolished.

Totally agree. At least require the team and league to pay some form of compensation beyond just an injury settlement. Don’t know how one would structure it but it could be based on where the contract talks stalled for a year or something.

The NFLPA should insure their prized earners so that he gets at least 50% of what he would get current market value that he was at the time of injury...

All the best to Dak. Hope he is able to make a full recovery like Bridgewater.

Shame what happen to Dak.

If the cowboys see it as bigger than a game, hopefully they still sign him to a good contract... he was having such a great year.

Re: N/S Dak Prescott

Saints, unlikely as it was, win a wild card spot and with memories of 2010 head to Dallas to play the 6-10 east winning cowboys. In an unprecedented move Dak had his leg amputated in favor of a prosthetic. Seeing how well that worked for him he had the other amputated and now runs a staggering 146 mph and leaps 12 feet. Which he uses to help his 6-10 Cowboys defeat the Saints. After the game Drew apparently retired but it was difficult to make out as he was still helping Malcolm feel better about people honoring the flag of their country.

Your team stinks

Re: N/S Dak Prescott

Knowing JJ’s past he will try to sign Dax to a reduce value 1 year prove it contract. Andy Dalton played pretty good for his first outing in Dallas.

I always think of a meme that friend sent me a while back. It had picture of Dallas Cowboy Star on an back window of an SUV as viewed from another vehicle with the caption, “ Never seen so many gay pride sticker in 1 city in my life”

Thanks! I needed a good chuckle this morning.
