Dallas Cowboys Vice President of Player Personnel Will McClay acknowledged the difficulty the team will have retaining its best players, most notably Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper.

"We expect Dak to be our quarterback," McClay said Wednesday, per USA Today's Jori Epstein. "If the owner/GM says we're going to get it done, he signs the checks. So we'll get that done."

He went on to explain the difficulties presented by the NFL's salary cap: "It's going to be a tough deal. It's the NFL. You have your quarterback you have to pay, you have a receiver, you have good players.
