You legitimately may have to consider Dak the worst quarterback in the league. He, single handedly, has the potential to decimate a franchise in one deal. Sure, talent wise he’s somewhere in the middle but mostly those guys are not signed to franchise-type contracts. If/when Jerry signs Dak long term at market price, it could be the death blow of a franchise for a good 5-6 years. And then, it’ll take another 2-5 to just get back in contention if the rebuild is done correctly. And then you gotta think Jerry will be dead after that. So, really Dak has the potential to kill Jerry Jones. 

1. This is purely hypothetical.
2. Having a bad contract does not make you an objectively bad player. The two don't go hand in hand. Having a passer rating of 70 and being paid 1 Million a year, versus having a passer rating of 70 at $25 Million per year doesn't make you any worse of a QB.
3. QB money is absurd across the board right now. When a bottom 10 starter (Sam Bradford is being paid upwards of $20 Million a year, you know something is amiss.

Ok, you took that completely too serious. 

However, dollar per win or dollar per TD responsible is absolutely part of your worth to your team. If I’m sinking upwards of $20M a year and at 5-6 years no less, your success is paramount to my team. Giving Dak a franchise contract can potentially cripple the most lucrative franchise in the NFL. Him succeeding/failing has more impact in Dallas than most any other team. If he gets a Nick Foles contract and can easily be shed, no real commitment, no real worries. When you start paying Dak franchise money, you are tying your 5 billion dollar company to his success. And in turn, through possible outcomes, could make him the worst QB in the league given all circumstances. His possible contract on that team is a dangerous concoction that weighs heavy on future monies to the NFL. Him playing at an average level has more impact than a Sam Bradford playing at a poor level for some team that’s QB transitioning.
