Kirk Cousins, who I'm sure we would almost universally agree is worse than Dak, got $90 million guaranteed when he hit the market. And no one would ever consider him elite. The teams I mentioned all have good rosters outside of QB. One or all of them will talk themselves into Dak being a difference maker. You have to remember current GMs and coaches couldn't give two ####s if it becomes a terrible contract, because if Dak doesn't pan out they're fired anyway.

Also, the Jerry argument doesn't work. Jerry's whole point with Dak has been you make way more off the field as the Cowboys QB then as any other team's QB, so take a bit of a discount. After watching Andy Dalton and Ben Dinucci and Garett Gilbert play QB and facing the prospect of more of that, I expect Jerry folds.
