Dallas generally doesn’t let its stars walk in their prime. Plus more on JuJu Smith-Schuster joining the Chiefs, and why Vikings fans shouldn’t feel cursed in Albert Breer’s Tuesday notes.
As was the case with Dak Prescott , DeMarcus Lawrence, Zeke Elliott, Zack Martin and, going back now, Dez Bryant, this was a public spat with. Dallas generally doesn’t let its stars walk in their prime. The Joneses also don’t mind going to the mat with those guys in negotiations., and Stephen Jones said it to me explicitly last month, that Lamb simply wasn’t going to do a deal last year, when he was first eligible for one.
Two, the roster has never been the issue in Dallas. They’ve been among the NFL’s most talented teams, really, going back to the end of the Bill Parcells era, nearly 20 years ago. • Final cuts are Tuesday, and as I’ve dug through some of the names that are being dangled on the trade market, the Denver Broncos’ trade bait was interesting to me—particularly that they have made it known to the other 31 clubs that veteran wideout Tim Patrick and running back Samaje Perine can be had, and will be cut if they aren’t traded.
That Franklin and Vele have given the team viable developmental options at receiver makes Patrick expendable, and fifth-round running back Audric Estime has paved the way for Perine’s exit. So, again, those would be, to use Payton’s word, encouraging signs. So if Vikings fans feel cursed, I get it. I also believe McCarthy will benefit from getting to learn this year, while watching Sam Darnold go through the ups and downs of a season. Especially with the staff the Vikings have for their quarterbacks.
