Cowboys Should Trade Dak For Top NFL Draft Pick? OK, Who Wants Him?

FRISCO: In a vacuum, it’s a great idea.

The Dallas Cowboys should move Dak Prescott if they believe he is a competent but not exceptional quarterback and would prefer not to pay him $60 million annually.

That’s the stance taken by Nick Wright of FS1,

who is attempting to defend it on “First Things First” this week.

“I don’t think Dak Prescott is enough to carry a team, again,

after this postseason performance,” Wright stated.

“And at $60 million per year for the rest of his prime,

that’s what he’d have to do.”

An acceptable position. It’s understandable for someone to think Dak’s “not the guy.”

And for someone to think he “can’t carry a team.”

And for someone to think he’s not worth “$60 million a year.’

‘So – with conventional wisdom being the Cowboys will sign Prescott to an extension in order to lower his massive $59 million cap hit for the 2024 season and spread that money out – what to do? “I would,

if I were the Dallas Cowboys, call teams like Washington with the No. 2 pick,

New England with the No. 3 pick, Atlanta with the No. 8 pick,

and see if they’d like to be the team that pays Dak Prescott,” Wright said.

Again, acceptable. Say goodbye to Prescott, who was MVP-level-outstanding in the regular season for the Cowboys,

throwing for 4,516 yards and 36 touchdowns? We get it.

And then, with that No. 2 or No. 3 or No. 8 pick? Draft Jayden Daniels of LSU or Bo Nix of Oregon or

J.J. McCarthy of Michigan or Michael Penix of Washington or Caleb Williams of USC

or Jordan Travis of Florida State or Drake Maye of North Carolina! Brilliant!And get a load of this:

If you traded Dak for, say, pick No. 8 and grabbed a QB?

That guy’s entire four-year salary totals $22 million! You get him for one-tenth the price of Dak!
