Cowboys ‘Cap hell’? Dallas plans 6 new contracts, 1 big cut

as the Dallas Cowboys may be about to re-prove this offseason as

they look on ways to extend Dak Prescott’s contract while shifting about

the money already owing to stars like All-Pro guard Zack Martin and excellent cornerback Trevon Diggs.

are currently approximately $20 million “over the cap.” On the surface, that seems alarming.

However, teams are not required to be cap-compliant until the start of the NFL’s business year on March 13.

There are also clear methods to becoming cap-compliant, which is necessary.

That begins with Prescott’s planned $59 million cap hit.

Depending on the nature of a new agreement,

Dallas can sign him to a long-term contract that cuts that figure by around $20 million, and Dallas is cap-compliant!

According to ESPN, a simple “flip of the switch” using stipulations already incorporated into

the Martin and Diggs contracts could free up an additional $20 million in cap space.

Another (theoretically) simple move: a new contract for CeeDee Lamb,

who will earn a fully guaranteed $17.991 million this year.

That actually would reduce his cap hit in a way that gives Dallas $11 million of room

ESPN reports that right tackle Terence Steele will be restructured; this is a switch.

We proposed removing receiver Michael Gallup after June 1 to save nearly $10 million.

The piper will eventually be paid; “voidable years”

are often the equivalent of using a credit card; the bill will come due.

There will also be significant additional expenses.

Micah Parsons, Dallas’ defensive star, has cost the team around $4 million APY.

He is now eligible for a contract extension and will undoubtedly seek to become

the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history,

The Cowboys will be under the cap in March; this is the law.

Assuming a new Dak agreement, they will have a competitive roster.
