Luck is retiring? That's tragic tbh
And somehow, some way, the Texans emerged as the big winners of tonight:

Andrew Luck already has met with Colts’ owner Jim Irsay to tell him that he is retiring, per source.
Lamar Miller just tore his ACL. D'onta Foreman is gone. All they have left is scatback Duke Johnson and a bunch of nobodies.
Trade Zeke for a 1st and 3rd to Houston?
Trade Prescott for two firsts to the Colts?
Value would never be higher.
lets say Dak and Jerry cant reach a deal, and they let Dak play out this last year, and he does what he's done for the past few seasons. Play solid, unspectacular football. Throw for 3700 yards, 23 TD's, 11 INT's, while running for 300 yards and another 6 TD's.
cowboys have a solid record, either barely missing playoffs or make it and are one and done in playoffs.
just for arguments sake... in that scenario, what kind of contract does Dak fetch on the open market?
That's the big ticket right there. In that scenario,
1) Jason Garrett gets the axe. I think the Joneses have made it clear that he's on his last strike and it's NFCCG or bust this time.
2) Prescott is probably tagged. On the open market, he'd probably fetch a Kirk Cousins like deal in terms of AAV, but with somewhat less guaranteed money. $28-31M/year. Even average QBs are in huge demand, like full stack java developers in today's economy. The kind of scenario you described is very similar to the Redskins from 2015-2017, the last three years they had Cousins. Either barely making the playoffs and not going far, or just missing.
3) Prescott either signs the tag or is traded before the draft. Obviously the Cowboys would hope for a 1st and maybe something else in addition in compensation.
Here is my Official 53 Man roster projection after 3 weeks of preseason.
QB (2): Prescott, Rush
HB (3): Pollard, Morris, Jackson
FB (1): Olawale*
WR (6): Cooper, Gallup, Cobb*, Smith, Wilson, Austin
TE (3): Witten, Jarwin, Schultz
OL (8): Smith, Williams, Frederick, Martin, Collins, Looney, Fleming, Su'a-Filo
DL (11): Lawrence, Collins, Woods, Charlton, Crawford, Hyder, Hill, Armstrong, Jackson, Covington, Jelks
LB (5): Smith, Vander Esch, Lee*, Thomas, March
S (5): Woods, Wilson, Heath, Thompson, Goodwin
CB (6): Jones, Awuzie, Brown*, Lewis, Jackson, Olumba
ST (3): Maher, Jones, Ladouceur
PS (10): Weber, Johnson, Wise, Knight, Phillips, Walker, Westry, McElroy, Chunn, Hyatt
PUP/IR: Brown, McGovern, Gifford
RES/DNR: Elliott
RES/SUS: Quinn, Gregory
Italics denote starters.
Italic* denotes part-time starter depending on formation.
Why are you including Charlton? You've wrote him off for the last 2 years.. One good game and now you want him on your 53?
They're not going to cut him because that would involve the Joneses eating pride. They had to eventually with Claiborne but they didn't let him go until he was around 5 years.
Lawrence... DeMarcus Lawrence didn't really break out until year 4. He had an injury plagued rookie year, a solid 8-sack sop re season playing across from Greg Hardy, an injury plagued and unproductive 3rd year, and a monster 4th year.
Andy should subs ute that emoji for periods. Punctuate every sentence with it.
I am OK giving DAK a big contract but not this year he is going to have to improve his 3 down completion rate/passing to at least be in top 5 all active QB if he can’t get you a first down passing then he shouldn’t get mad money.
As far as Taco they could still keep him, trade him or just release him I am thinking they keep him for at least 3 games and then trade him but if they release him I think they eat 4 mill but then get 5 mill back to give to one of the 3.
Too much sense for it to happen.
I'd even throw in Crawford ... and Cameron Fleming, since he secretly sucks but the Texans want a tackle and he played in the Super Bowl for the Patriots.
Lawrence and Clowney at bookends for the next 6 years = nobody can really run on us at either direction for the foreseeable future. And they better hope to not get to 3rd & long, because the QB is gonna die.
Would be interesting to see Zeke run behind that ty line.
If I new Clowney could stay healthy I would do that trade in a minute
Their bigger problem is pass pro, not so much run blocking
So trade a guy who wants big money for a guy that wants big money.. defensive end big money at that
He would be an RE in a 4-3 scheme.
Wrong again dumbass.
They were 27th last year in adjusted line yards.
Also 1st (worst) in the league in total sacks.
Being the worst at something doesn't mean you're not terrible at the other.
Are you saying the O-Line isn't terrible for RBs? Because that's what you clearly implied.

Houston was 8th in the league for rushing yards in 2018. Yes these aren't on a per capita basis, and yes I know Watson is an above average running QB, but still, they were a top 10 rushing team.
