The Dallas Cowboys are far from the gold standard when it comes to asset management. They insist on being passive with contract extensions despite the obvious financial benefits that come with being proactive. This isn't news.
Had they extended Micah Parsons ahead of time, they could be working on new deals for star left guard Tyler Smith, cornerback DaRon Bland and kicker Brandon Aubrey.
Despite all of the Cowboys' contractual mishaps, you never hear a word about players requesting a trade out of Dallas. The 49ers are the gold standard in that department and they were hit with another contract ultimatum from breakout wide receiver Jauan Jennings on Monday.
