Dallas Cowboys’ Stephen Jones Opens Up on Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb Contracts, More
is rather fascinating that the Cowboys largely sat out the top of the free agent market and appear to have made little progress this offseason on new deals for Prescott, Lamb, Parsons, or Diggs.
However, that doesn’t mean that progress can’t be made and deals can’t get done in the coming months.

I mean you’re talking about two players that aren’t quarterbacks that feel like they ought to be a little bit like [Justin] Jefferson, the top-paid non-quarterbacks in the league.
“And, of course, we’ve got a big one in Dak. And we got [Trevon] Diggs right there. And then you got Zack Martin and [DeMarcus Lawrence]. And so we got a lot of guys making you know quite a bit of money. And you know that’s no excuses. We think we can get this done, know we can get it done. But it just takes time.”
