That’s also an option too. Go hard after Brady and then draft a guy to learn for 2 years.

They will however be in a good position to get a good QB this draft. There are several really good QB’s in this draft. It’s likely that one could slide to them at 17. We see almost every year a top QB prospect slides. Hell, considering his injury history it could be Tua. Even a guy like Jake Brohm could be available in the 2nd. If they are going to draft a QB this would be the best year to do it.

In boston, there is a lot of talk that dallas is a darkhorse candidate for brady. They are throwing shit at the wall because of it being an upgrade across the board for brady from a personnel standpoint.
Also figuring the offense would cater to him asap upon arrival
no way that happens.. the wagon is hitched to dak for the foreseeable future. Someone is going to blink and its likely to be jerry

Good ole 2012 raises its ugly head again. So does comparisons of 16-game full seasons played otherwise.

And won't even be a blink. Already got the check filled out, just waiting on the little "Amount" box. Just like he did for Dez, Romo, etc and so on. He falls in love with the players, forgets it's business.

HERE'S WHY JERRY WILL SIGN DAK LONG-TERM, DUMMIES
Getty Images
Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott bet on himself in September, and he’s about to cash in. One way or the other.
Clarence E. Hill, Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that the Cowboys and Prescott “came close to deal in September on a contract that would have paid him roughly $33 million annually.” Talks broke down when Prescott wanted more.
Here’s the thing to remember regarding any talks from 2018. Prescott’s paltry salary of $2 million for 2019 would have dragged down the total value at signing of any new contract. If, for example, the Cowboys had offered a five-year extension worth $33 million per year, the average value at signing on the six-year deal would have been $27.8 million per year, halfway between to total value at signing of the contracts signed by Jimmy Garoppolo (five years, $27.5 million per year) and Kirk Cousins (three years, $28 million per year).
Hill reports that Prescott wants a deal that will pay him as much or more than Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. But there’s a big difference between Wilson’s new-money average of $35 million per year and his total value at signing of $31.4 million per year. Since Prescott currently has no contract, Prescott’s total value at signing and new money will be the same.
So will it be $35 million per year or $31.4 million per year or somewhere in between?
Here’s the more important reality regarding the value of Dak’s next deal. Once the Cowboys apply the franchise tag, the market at the position doesn’t matter. What matters is the projected payout under the tag. If the Cowboys risk exposing Prescott to an offer sheet from another team (which if not matched would give the Cowboys a pair of first-round picks), the starting point would be the non-exclusive tag of roughly $27 million for 2020, along with a 20-percent bump in 2021 to $32.4 million. And then comes 2022, where Prescott would be entitled to a 44-percent increase, to $46.65 million. That’s a year-to-year payout of $106 million over three years, an average of $35.35 million.
If the Cowboys apply the exclusive tender, things get much more expensive. It’s $33.4 million for 2020 (for now) then $40.08 million for 2021 then $57.71 million for 2022, a three-year payout of $131.19 million, or $43.73 million per year.
That’s a huge amount of leverage, if Prescott is willing to play on a year-to-year basis. And he has shown over the past year a stubborn reluctance to bow to the wishes of the Joneses, holding firm for the contract he believes he deserves.
Prescott has even more leverage, given that under the rules of the tag he has the right to stay away from all offseason, training-camp, and preseason activities while still making the full amount of the tender if he shows up in early September. The Cowboys can’t afford to not have Prescott around for the preparations for the first season of Mike McCarthy’s tenure as coach, and if Dak is willing to continue to hold firm it puts maximum pressure on the Cowboys to pay up.
IF WE TAG HIM WE BREAK THE BANK

I didn't say team mediocrity, I said Dak's mediocrity. Get it right.

How does any of this show garbage stats? I've moved on from Romo, you should do the same and watch the game.
How do you think the D comapred between 2012 with Romo and 2019 with Dak. Here's a hint....I already know the answer.

The D in 2012 suffered from lots of offensive turnovers and bonehead plays, and tons of 3 and outs. Horrid offensive performance. ALL of the same complaints you have for Dak were also true of the QB in 2012.

You have no recall of the horrid games I watched, throughout the Romo tenure.

Only if you so the same in 2021 and 2022. What will it coast in 2020 is all we should be concerned with.

I could just as easily say the O had to take chances because the D was so bad. The QB had to carry the team in 2012 to have any shot at the playoffs. The team has to carry our current QB.

Which is 27 mil, minimum. My idea of exposing him is even more expensive, as we can't say "22 mil since no one tried to sign you."

5 picks in one game is "carrying." 2 for 14 on third down, consistently, is "carrying."

Yeah our defense sure did a lot of "carrying" this year. Couldn't get off the field or stop TDs. Couldn't get any turnovers.

I get you were trying to catch people who like Romo and don't like Dak in a stat trap. Here is the thing, speaking for just myself, I'm not a huge Romo fan. I do think that looking back on it, Romo was more talented and more capable than Dak is right now.
