Dak will be fine.  He will probably have to do a one year deal like Newton this season, but if he proves he is back, there is going to be plenty of money somewhere for him. 

There is no chance in fooking hell that he has to sign a 1 yr deal.  This is the NFL, where if you have 1 300 yard passing game teams lineup with a truck load of money.

They could’ve not done that. The NFLPA is garbage. 

They could've fought the tag at least, but the problem with the NFLPA is that their labor base is splintered. Rank and file players have a average shelf life of 3 years in the NFL, so they're not going to risk missing a years worth of pay for a potential strike. The very good/elite players obviously have the means to go for a strike, but there's not so many of them. The owners know the rank and file are eventually going to cave doing negotiations, (and they do) so the NFLPA doesn't have the leverage to get things like guaranteed contracts or lifetime health benefits.
