He's not a terrible quarterback. I wouldn't mind having in in Charlotte.

I don’t think we can afford him with our current salary cap situation

I’d rather have him than Dak Prescott.

He’s an ok qb just not worth the huge contract he has which sends players like Amari Cooper away. He lost the SF game with his ridiculous interceptions.

Dak is a top 10 QB. No doubt. Is he an elite QB that can truly carry a team a la Mahomes, Burrow, et al? No, but he's certainly a well above average QB.

Carr is at best a middle third guy. I'd take him over Daniel Jones, but not before Kirk Cousins. Plus he's older than Dak.

Dallas fucked up by signing Elliot before they locked in Dak's deal. The QB market was reset in that time and Dallas lost value by waiting. Now they have Elliot locked up to a contract that pays him like an elite RB when he's average at best. At least Dak is still better than most staying QBs.

I think we are close to agreement. I’m just pissed he’s getting elite money when he can’t carry a team.

With the talent Dallas has had it could move Carr up from a middle third guy.

I’d like to see Zeke work out a new deal and stay as a back with the role he had at the end of the season.

I don't think so. It's not like Vegas was bereft of talent at WR Adams, Renfrow, Waller, Jacobs. I get that were hurt a lot this year, but he had talent around him.

I'm not arguing Dak is a world beater, but if we're picking teams in the schoolyard, I'm taking Dak every single time.

Dak's deal might be slightly above market rate, but it's not outrageous. He's getting $44.2m next year.

Kirk Cousins is getting $36.25.

Carr is due $40m unless he goes FA and signs for less, but I think he gets at least $30m.

There's almost no one below Dak's AAV that I'm taking over him that isn't on a rookie contract. Cousins might be the only one and that's debatable.

I definitely wouldn’t want Cousins!

Dak isn’t good enough to win a super bowl because he makes too many unforced mistakes.

Where do you think Carr will end up?

If I'm him, I want to go to TB, NYJ, NO, maybe WAS but I they claim to not be looking for a QB. Somewhere that isn't in a full rebuild and has some talent on offense.

I'd want to stay away from Carolina, Indy, Atlanta. Places that need to blow up the whole team.

He's gotten better, but there were a few inexcusable 4th-down throwaways. It really felt like he was more worried about his stat line than giving the team a chance to win.

I think he's better than most people give him credit for, but he's got to tighten up some of the decision making.
