Depends if you calculating based on new money or not. According to this, new money of Watt deal is 41: https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/inside-the-new-t-j-watt-deal According to this, new money deal of Parsons is 47...

Good post and to be clear, my comments about their organizational direction aren’t specific to this trade. In fact at this stage of the game, trading him was probably the right move for Dallas IMO. Where the heavy criticism is warranted is the process. They did it with Dak, Lamb, and now...

Oof.

Investing in premium stadiums is actually revenue generating. Especially when you receive over $300M in public money and $150 million in loans from the league. The economic impact of hosting super bowls, massive concerts, college football championships, final fours, world cups, etc along with...

Then you clearly missed something because the NFLPA links directly to info for 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2021, 2022, and 2023. The other years relies on Jason LaCanfora reporting, which is also linked.

Did you read it? He cites the NFLPA and includes direct links to the NFLPA twitter account where the data was hosted. Again, he’s far from the only person documenting this. Spotrac and overthecap are generally very good sources but they are still just third party aggregators at the end of the...

Correct. The info I shared is straight from the NFLPA. It’s been well chronicled.

Come on bro I can only get so hard.

Those links don’t seem to work but I’ve seen Spotrac and Overthecap’s cash numbers and I have no idea how they are calculating them because they are incorrect. Here is a good breakdown using figures provided by the NFLPA...

He’s talking about how increasing cash spending can allow you to invest well over the salary cap into the roster in a given season. Which is the point I was making yesterday as to why the Cowboys are no longer trying to win. Stephen is running it as just another business in the Jones portfolio...

#hotdog meme “we’re all looking for the guy that created this problem”

I guess that McLaurin jersey I’ve been wearing for six years was purely out of hostility. Listen, I’m not going to spend time refuting someone randomly popping up going nuh-uh. The reporting I’ve mentioned is accurate. Period the end. He deserved to get paid a little above market value and he...

Trying as hard as you can is usually a good first step (this involves max cash). Then comes making good decisions and the resulting product. If you’re not trying, nothing else matters. I learned these lessons during the latter half of the Dan Snyder era.

They also get their money much sooner and avoid the injury risk. It’s not Dak, Lamb, or Parsons that drew this out. Hendrickson is completely different situation because of his age. You’re right to lump Dallas in with the Bengals for the cheap franchise awards though. Both are run like B list...

They have drafted very well over the last handful of years and sure, they’ve put out decent teams mostly for that reason. They aren’t doing everything they can to win, though. It’s fairly well documented how they’ve chosen to keep the purse strings tight on the cash, while the teams trying to...
