Locking down a top 5 pass rusher for the next 5 years. Trade talks maybe? I don't know who Mike Fisher is or the website, but below is a quote from an article he wrote. Quote The way I understand it, Canter engaged both the Kansas City Chiefs and the Indianapolis Colts in discussions about ways they could trade for DeMarcus Lawrence.

It was a real possibility he could've been traded if he asked for any more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think Zeke and his agent are smarter than this. Dallas got everything they could out of Demarco and when it came time to pay him, they kicked him to the curb. I am all for elite RBs holding out after 3 years. RBs will likely get one big contract during their careers. They gotta dig their heels in and get every penny they can.

Even though that's exactly what should occur. Pull a Emmitt Smith!!! If anyone deserves a New Contract, its him. Not Cooper, Not Dak the player who single handedly carried that offense the better part of the last 3 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray didn't have a 5th year option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SO we didn't exactly "kick him to the curb". He decided to bet on himself & it worked out for him & us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
