Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, must make a number of important choices soon.
A couple of the Cowboys’ top players are up for contract extensions. They are linebacker Michal Parsons, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, and quarterback Dak Prescott.
As time goes on, their contract values will increase. This off-season, Amon-Ra St. Brown signed a contract for $30 million annually, which caused the wide receiver market to soar.Josh Allen, an edge rusher with the Jacksonville Jaguars, signed a five-year, $150 million contract, making him one of the best paid edge rushers.
ProFootballTalk analyst Mike Florio criticized Jones for failing to secure new contracts for any of his three players, despite their rising worth.
“Next one for me, and this is one of the continuing themes of the off season,” stated Florio. “When in the name of hell will the Cowboys take care of their young, talented players? As we discussed previously, I don’t think Dak Prescott will be taken care of this year. Regarding CeeDee Lamb, what would you do?”
“That’s another contract where each day that goes by, another contract passes. And in the last few weeks, we’ve seen Devonte Smith, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and AJ Brown.”
“The cost is increasing steadily. When will you get CeeDee lamb to look after it? You had better finish it before Justin Jefferson is handled by the Vikings. And Micah Parsons comes next. All you have to do is give him the cash and anything he requests.”
“When will the Cowboys become conscious again? It continues blowing up in their faces, so when it comes to dealing with their great players, when are they going to stop being cheap, sighted, and not as smart as they think they are?”
What would Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Micah Parsons’ contracts entail?
The amount that the Dallas Cowboys will pay Micah Parsons, Dak Prescott, and CeeDee Lamb will blow your mind. When they receive contract extensions, all three of them will probably rank among the top five, if not the top three, paid players at their positions.
Prescott’s deal would undoubtedly be extended, bringing in $50–60 million yearly. He would like to receive compensation close to his current $55 million cap hit in a new contract.
At $55 million a season, Joe Burrow is the highest-paid quarterback; the agreement was reached during the previous off-season.
Lamb’s contract would undoubtedly pay more than $30 million annually. Last season, he was selected an All-Pro wide receiver and led the league in receptions. He might be able to negotiate a $150 million plus five-year contract with a guaranteed $90-$100 million. He might even earn $35 million a year.
Parsons believes that a deal like to a $170 million, five-year contract with a $100 million guarantee would be reasonable. It’s arguable, but most people feel he’s a superior edge rusher than Josh Allen.
He should still be valued more since he is a Dallas Cowboy. Parsons is a three-time All-Pro with 40.5 sacks in three seasons of play. He ought to get paid more.
