Time to bury the Dallas Cowboys for losing the leverage game to Randy Gregory

Dallas Cowboys Executive Vice President and CEO Stephen Jones, owner Jerry Jones answer questions from reporters on Thursday, April 27, 2017 at The Star in Frisco, Texas.Beware the ides of March , for it signals the start of NFL free agency and the Cowboys’ annual exercise in damage control.

But the larger piece of the puzzle requires one to look at the contracts the Cowboys sign. At any given time, more than half the roster is likely to be players on rookie deals. Rookies have zero leverage in the NFL. The old days of players holding out and missing training camp are long gone. The dollars and years are slotted, and players basically sign on the dotted line.

Then comes Dak. The Cowboys gave him all the leverage in the world when they failed to jump ahead of the situation — “We don’t want to set the quarterback market” were the infamous words of Stephen Jones. When Prescott willingly played under the franchise tag, he gained even greater power. In addition to all this, he’s now the face of the franchise and the Cowboys aren’t particularly worried with his getting fined or suspended for anything.

I’m under the impression that RG was butt hurt over a clause about substance abuse. If so, you can’t have leverage against crazy. It’s sound biz by DC (and I hate most of their decisions. 🤣). But in this case, with this history, what did he expect? And I could br wrong here.

They seem to do just fine burying themselves the past 20 plus years without asking all of us to assist.
