DLaws rookie year he pretty much won the Lions playoff game for us with his sack fumble after missing most of the year. And DLaw had 8 sacks in year 2. Not the same as Taco. I would say that Taco didn't break out in college until year 3. He was a late bloomer. Could be true here to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s also a marginal pass rusher. It’s not like his production would match that of D-Law. In fact, it’s not terribly close. I understand the thought but my point is that 2 players would offer us more benefit than the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trapt37 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 An updated look at the edge rusher market by AAV: Khalil Mack - $23.5M Von Miller - $19.1M Olivier Vernon - $17.0M Chandler Jones - $16.5M Za’Darius Smith - $16.5M No way in hell i'd pay D. Law more than V. Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Law more than V. Miller DLaws tag is $20.5. He is already getting more than Miller. Ideally he gets a contract at around 19 or 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here ya go, theres a bunch of links: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=demarcus+lawrence+won't+sign+franchise+tag It appears its all leaks from his agent to the media and not a direct quote attributed to Dlaw. But thats pretty much standard protocol for the player to go radio silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBoys Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I dont see how anyone passes on $20.5m guaranteed but I guess it's easier if you made $17m last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they would not. You can only play one of them at a time. So, if that player gives you 50% production, the team suffers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except he is replaceable...Houston, ET could be had for what D. Law wants maybe even add another FA in there, and houston could offer close to the production D. Law does for a fraction of the cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would both play at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DalCowboyzRule Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Just wanted to chime in and say how much FA sucks being a Cowboys fan. Nothing is guaranteed in FA but at least it’s fun being a fan of any other team who is apparently allowed to make moves. That’s my contribution to this thread.
