Why drafting well is key for Cowboys to pay and keep Prescott, Lamb, and Parsons

At some point over the next 12 months, the Cowboys will hand out top-of-the-market contracts to Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Micah Parsons.

Prescott will likely get something upward of the $55 million Average Annual Value (AAV) Joe Burrow got last year, Lamb will look to better Amon-Ra St. Brown’s recent contract ($30 million AAV), and making Parsons the highest-paid defensive player in the league will probably cost $35 million in AAV (Joey Bosa is currently at $34 million).

That’s a lot of money for just three players and has got to have you wondering about how many top-of-market contracts you can hand out on a single team.
