All eyes are on the Dallas Cowboys’ negotiations with QB Dak Prescott and WR Amari Cooper. There has been some movement in recent weeks, with the latest Prescott offer having some aspect above where Jared Goff’s deal is. Of course which part, or parts, is the important aspect and still unknown.
The franchise tag deadline was moved, so the team will get a window following the CBA vote to know whether they’ll have one tag or two. Would letting Byron Jones explore that market, a market full of NFC East teams, be a bad idea? Also, see who has already had their option picked up by the Cowboys.
The draft is almost a month away, and the NFL just handed out compensatory picks. Learn more about the Cowboys compensatory pick(s), as well as a potential late-round wide receiver prospect Dallas could consider.
The Cowboys are playing the Steelers in the Hall of Fame game, and that might be the best thing possible for Mike McCarthy and the coaching staff.
The latest Prescott offer has him, in some way, being “above” Rams’ QB Jared Goff’s four-year extension worth $134 million with $57 million fully guaranteed, $110 million virtually guaranteed.
