Dak Prescott’s value was on full display last year when he went down with a leg injury early in the season. The team was then forced to go with an array of different quarterbacks, mainly Andy Dalton, and they could never find their footing as a unit.
With Dak, Jerry Jones knows what he has. He might not be in the upper echelon of quarterbacks in the NFL, but he’s a great playmaker and can win you a lot of football games.
Now that the noise surrounding Dak Prescott is over, the rumor mill will turn its attention to the developments of Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson. The NFL offseason is starting to take shape.
