What a human being. @Genghis Khan


All joking aside (just this once), this is basically what people have been saying Dak should have done on both his 2 contracts. It's really no sacrifice, he'd never know the difference in his lifestyle, and it would help the team.

Even a retard like Allen can figure it out. (Unlike Allen's ability to play QB.)

You think that would get the Cowboys to sign anything more than one more Olawale?

At least the Bills aren't afraid to hand a free agent more than a 5 million dollar contract.

True but that's a separate issue.
It is but it isn't. How does a player decide to sacrifice money if the team isn't going to actually use that money to make the team better? I'm sure a guy like Josh Allen does what he does because he thinks it will allow the team to go out and sign a Joey Bosa or whatever.

If Dak takes less money and the team doesn't spend it that's on the team.

If Dak takes every red cent he can get that guarantees the team can't spend it.

Dak's life does not change one iota either way.

Also, they won't spend on outside free agents of course, but what if an extra $5 or $10 million meant they resigned a Jourdan Lewis or Chauncey Golston, or a guy like Armstrong last year? They will sometimes sign their own guys for a lot of money (like Osa for instance).

The team does it to themselves. They don't bring anyone of real value in. They basically refuse to get things done ahead of time. Every time contract talks came up it was "We want to see another year from Dak" "Franchise tag, we want to see another year" and so yeah, I don't blame the guy for taking every penny from the Cowboys. It wouldn't have benefited the roster. I don't believe for a second that taking 5 mil less a season would have impacted our approach to free agency at all. And when the Cowboys treat the player like that. You kind of have to expect the player to act that way in return.
