Tugboat Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I mean, probably none of the star NFL players should make the kind of absurd money they do. But the way the market is set up...it'd be insane for Dak to take less than he can get. Especially when there's far from any guarantee that Jerry is going to successfully turn those savings into surrounding him with more and better talent. He could very easily, and probably more likely even...simply blow that extra $10M a year on overpaying another player or two, or on a bad contract that goes belly up on someone else.

But I've been thinking of getting a Bernese Mountain Dog and I have tons of questions if you do have a business with them Ha. No I just think they're great and that is my fantasy football franchise.

You are basicially saying that 10M in cap space translates directly into 1 SB. Perfect microcosm of how much people overrate cap space. 10M in cap space gets you Donte Moncrief for 1 year.

I sold health insurance, worked off a 37% commission and a 15% renewals. There was a system in place. The company I worked for made billions, that wasn't my problem. Playing anyone 28 million a year to play football is way too much. As you know we all raised a family, bought our homes, have our toys, making a fraction of that. YES, it could be over any Sunday, if a player fears that then do something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidersedge Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 $25 million will be the minimum. It will be interesting to see how Jerry tackles all these long term deals for Prescott, Cooper and Lawrence not to mention Elliot right around the corner.

Art_Vandalay Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Compared to other sports, NFL contracts are bs and the players know it. QBs aren't only fighting for themselves to get paid. They're also fighting to reset the market for the rest of the QBs in the league. Excepting less "for the team" would be a slap in the face to all other QBs negotiating new contracts.
