    Top 5? Top 10?

    Is he worth the money he is asking?

    Is he worth the money he's asking for? Hell no! That team is stacked and he still can't get them to the playoffs. So the question is, do you want to let the team decline so you can pay Dak? If I'm Jerruh Jones I'd go with the Red Rocket for less money and likely equal performance.

    He's barely a top 15 QB IMO. He's not a special talent.

    In no particular order

    Brees
    Brady
    Rivers
    Roethlisberger
    Mahommes
    Wentz
    Cousins
    Wilson
    Stafford
    Ryan
    Garoppolo
    Rodgers
    Watson

    Are all QBs I would take before him. And there are guys I rank behind him now that could make a big leap in the near future like I hope Darnold or even his current backup Dalton.

    I think Prescott has already peaked too I don't think it's going to get better for him. I envision his game taking steps backwards much like Kaepernick's game did after Harbaugh left to go to college football. Garrett didn't get enough credit for the work he did with him obviously Prescott has things going for him intangible qualities but I think he's a limited QB.

    Has he signed his franchise tender yet? I can't believe anyone would turn their nose up at a $33 million payday or whatever the number is for one year's worth of work. He should sign that asap if he hasn't done so.

    Cowgirls is Zeke's team. Not Dak's. Once you stop Zeke, their entire offense is dead in the water. Speaks volumes about how good Dak is.

    The answer is definitely no for the top 5 or top 10. I would say about 15 - 20 at this point.

    I'd say aggresively average, but distinctly average will do.

    I think he's a top 10 QB (not top 5 but top 10).

    Brook the last time I created a post here, I was crucified. So I am going to suggest to you a better question would be how do you rate Sam Donald? Please post this question otherwise I will be accused again for stirring up shit.

    His first year was fantastic but he reduced the read option aspect of his game and turned average. So no, he's not top 10 IMO but he's still franchise.

    Thanks guys. I asked because I really like Cowboys. I hate Giants and I hate Eagles and their fans. In a sense they are the enemy of my enemy. Now I see that they are about to pay Dak a ton of money crippling them further. I hope they stay away from signing him long term if it requires 40m a year. get out of here man!

    Dak is a generational talent and needs to be paid accordingly. ;)

    Anyone notice the (debatably) GOAT QB was never the highest paid and his team became a dynasty?

    Anyone notice the (undeniable) NBA Goat was never the highest paid and his team became a dynasty?

    I wonder if there’s som sort of correlation between team over self and winning?

    Based of current performance, I wouldn't place him in the top 10.

    But the cowgirls aren't playing fantasy/madden draft and getting a QB who's is notably better and has no injury concerns isn't going to happen for them so either they stick with Dak or look to to the draft.

    There's always been something about him that I don't like, I don't even know what it is. His numbers are good, like really good, he doesn't turn the ball over, he wins football games but still there's this something hanging over him. He is not top 10 in my opinion but he is in the top half. He isn't worth 40M$ though, Mahomes probably will get that and Dak isn't nearly as good as him.

    Dude threw for 4,902 yards last year, only surpassed by one other QB. 4th in TDs thrown. Struggled with interceptions last year, but was still 11th among QBs who started the whole season.

    For anyone to say he isn't top 10 is crazy. Net yards per attempt, dude is dominant.

    I think he is overrated based on all the really good players around him. Hasn't he had a top 5 OL plus Zeke pretty much every year? Now has Cooper, Gallup, and Lamb.

    I always liked him at Mississippi State. I think he's better than what people say he is but they are judging him based on his contract demands than his actual play. He's a good NFL QB.

    Even he knows he's not worth the $40 million a year deal he's reportedly "asking for" by the way. Its a negotiation tactic. He doesn't want a long term deal so they will franchise him 2 years in a row. That's $62 million in 2 years if he's franchised. He's gonna get that so he wants the franchise tag

    Dak Prescott is an ascending talent, likely to be in the top 10 QB's for a lot of the next decade.

    I'd take Mahomes over him. Toss-up with Watson depending on the makeup of the team.

    You want a world is standing on it's head stat? 4 of the top 5 QBR's last year were African-American QB's. 5 of the top 7 too.

    The NFL has finally caught up to the reality that college football has changed the pro game. Having more than a few African-American QB's in the league at the same time was unheard of until 2013 or so and now they're among the very best and also the youngest that the NFL has to offer. If Kaepernick had not been rail-roaded the representation in the top 10 would likely be even higher.
