I can't see how anyone would take issue with that.

If anyone things Tom Brady just hates money and loves his teammates more than any other QB, they're a buffoon.

The Pats actually will spend money wisely and get great players. If dak saved the cowboys money they would piss it away on locker room cancers.

I don't see how Brady can survive on only $15M/year. It's a darn good thing his wife makes more, or they'd be in a local soup line. **

Made the mistake of looking at the comments section. Holy crap there are some toolsheds on there, especially the one that said Dallas should drop Dak now and tank to get Trevor Lawrence in the future. You can't fake that kind of stupid.

And let’s also not forget that when people talk about bargain-level contracts, they’re typically referring to a guy playing on a $6-10M/yr deal. Dak made $600K last year, so it’s ridiculous to even ask him a question about taking a team-friendly deal at this point.

Never once have I trolled. I rail on Ole Miss, and Bama but I’ve held that hatred since pre-web. This is my only online avenue. So, no. I don’t relate to those ******** at all. I’m a real life *******.

I can’t speak for you though.

Totally agree with that but I really doubt Tom Brady is taking less money on his contracts because of what his wife makes. Would think it has much more to do with him accumulating a lot of money over the years he's played and wanting to win rings. Heck, these celebrity marriages could bust up any day anyway.

We fans of Dak can only hope they are that stupid. Could you imagine Dak plugged into a team like Tampa Bay?

My thoughts as well. Would be interesting to see someone like him take $500k and let the Bill go crazy with the extra $$. The players union hates Brady not taking the max. I say good for Dak though, guys should take a max deal and everyone else can take a hike. All but only a handful of players are in a position like Brady, I'd question your decision making ability if you weren't looking for max deals.

The Pack has quite the range of poster. From captivating authors and Bigfoot Killers, all the way down to good ole fellers who say ‘I seen it.’

Everyone is somewhat right here. You can’t ignore the facts that very large QB contracts take away from signing good pieces around him, including a LT, a lockdown corner, etc. Dak is right about Brady’s contract and his wife’s income. That’s just the truth. Brady IS able to take away that extra $10MM a year because his wife makes it, AND he knows his popularity leads to endorsement deals. That is the way most pro athletes did it in the day, was through endorsements. All these guys want now is the HUGE contract no extra work on endorsement and screw what’s best for the team.

I would ask you all if you would rather have a 3 year/$20M guaranteed, or a 6 year/$10M guaranteed? I think Brady and maybe some others choose the latter to keep open the money in the cap for the plug and play missing pieces.

Dak I think should be fair and will land somewhere in the $15M for 10 year guaranteed. Hopefully!

Like in the article, it helps when Giselle brings in more than he does anyway. I know a couple of years ago she had a company that was bringing in around $70 Mil per year. I think she still makes $15-20 Mil on modeling whenever she chooses to do it. It helps being the highest paid model in history.

Brady also makes a good chunk of change on endorsements which is the biggest amount that Dak is currently getting paid. Dak did get a performance bonus so instead of $600,000, he ended up getting over $1 Mil.

Dallas didn't mind paying dak near league minimum for 3 years and in the process, allowing Dallas to build a contender. Time for Dak to get a taste....he has done his time and has 2 playoff appearances in 3 years.

I’m not suggesting not taking the best deal, but I’d take $10m/year for 5 years guaranteed if I thought it would help win.

I mean **** that’s $50 million dollars.

You also have to look at where the QB is in his stage of his career. Dak made $750,000 last year. Tom Brady has made over $200,000,000 in his career. I love Tom Brady, but it's a hell of a lot easier for him to give up some money to win a title than it is for Dak right now.​

You also have to remember that how you talk before contact negotiations. He can't go around saying "I'm just happy to be a Cowboy. I'll take whatever they give me." He's just building some leverage like his agent instructed him to do.

Yahoo comments section is a retched hive of scum and villainy. You must be cautious when clicking there.

He's not the first NFL QB to have made a lot of money and enjoy winning, but he is the first married to one of the most successful supermodels in the world.

I mean, none of us can know for sure either way, but the evidence points towards her wealth having something to do with it.

He might but I will be surprised. He's not a 25mil qb at this point.

Why not? That's the going rate for a very good (not great) franchise QB. Second half of the season, after getting Cooper, Dak was a top 10 QB.

Jerry likes Dak. He knows if he waits it will be 30M per, and more guaranteed.

Dak was making a joke, that also happens to be a little true.....the melt is just more Dak hate.
