That will not be a bargain From what I can tell, his dead cap hit that year is only 10.8 million. His base salary guarantees at a certain point (5th day of the league year). Once is guarantees they'd be under water, but they can get away from the deal before that base guarantees and save about 5.7 million in cap space.

Uncle Buck Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm amazed how much hate there is for the Cowboys in this thread. I've liked their team since the 70's and wouldn't mind seeing them have some good teams again. I think they are a pretty cool organization with a great history, although I could have done without the Herschel Walker trade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems some folks (not necessarily in this thread) take it personally. To stay on topic.....Overall I think both parties are getting want they want and need. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KManX89 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Great to see elite players get paid, even at a non-premium position. He deserves that money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
