[QUOTE=Scott Taylor;5184664]Prescott wanted to get the most he could, thats how you negotiate. Sounds like you fall on the "Dak was being a money-grubber" side of things.[/QUOTE]
Knowing what you are worth is also part of the equation. Wanting the same money as a guy who is quite possibly the best at his position in the league when you haven't delivered similar results seems to fall closer go the "inflated ego" side of the scale than merely wanting to be paid what one is worth.
If you want Mahomes money, deliver Mahomes results first.

[font=georgia]****, Vikings at Hawks was a hell of a game that came down the end. I get the Vikings have only 1 win but I'd hope Zimmer isn't on any hot seat. I've watched that game 1 and a half times already on the replay.
Also Derrick Carr elbowed everyone's NFL savior and star of 10 commercials at a time, right in his mouth in his house. That game was great.
Tom Brady seeing the effects of missing a Geritol dose I guess was OK. Where are we at as a people when the goat can't will his team a simple 5th down?[/font][/QUOTE]
They didn't show the Vikes where I was at, would have liked to have seen that game. I'm on the west coast and they are not showing Seattle, dumb networks.

[QUOTE=BeastieRunner;5184668]The reality is that once he leaves Dallas, he'll be lucky to get that money now because I don't think Browns or Cincy will dump that on him. Maybe the Jets but I don't think so either.[/QUOTE]

DING DING ...
Dak was offered a 4-5 year deal. He was gonna make Russell Wilson type money each year. This without doing Wilson type results . Let alone Mahomes as we see.
Pat Mahomes deal is one KC can even go in ala Jerry Jones and redo as QB salaries go up as well. He signed a long term deal for that reason. As posted (which I should have copied sorry) its easier to go in and redo things down the line with longer years for NFL cap. I don't blame Prescott wanting to make as much as possible. But if you haven't done it...yet , you can't be demanding that. You have to earn it. (Mahomes and Wilson both did it and got rewarded as we see)

[Font=georgia]Damn. Burn.
Since I'm here wallowing in JETS misery instead of my own, anybody think you might can get a first round pick still for Darnold?[/FONT]

No, you can't, there is no team that needs a QB that badly to give up a first round for a guy who is under performing so much. Tribisky is there for the taking. :p
If the Jets do so badly that they can get Lawrence, they better have a better coach than Gase, or they will ruin him too.
-
Maybe the TV show Ghost Hunter would pick up Sam Darnold in the first round.

Didn't Lawerence say he will skip the draft if the Jets are #1? Or did I absorb an NFL meme as fact?

Speaking of which ...

If he didn't, he should.

Jets and Falcons are racing for the #1 spot.
I dunno ... Falcons ... I would take the flyer at least.

Jets need help EVERYWHERE ....but the Falcons could draft him and give him a year to sit and learn under Ryan and then make the starter. Have a nice smooth QB transition period . Going from Ryan to Lawrence would be good for any coach.

And I think the Falcons have the basics of a team foundation, but were undermined by a very bad coach who had probably lost his players.

Jesus, the Chargers have got to block better. I get they got some injuries, but seriously
-
On the other hand, this Herbert kid is something special.
-
If only that Charger had caught that 3rd down pass. That wasn't on Herbert , he had to throw it in that spot for the catch with traffic around. The WR has to catch that one. He looked good out there. For awhile I had thought we would get a tie game given just how badly the Saints pass defense is.
