Rob Ryan says Dak Prescott is Russell Wilson & Cowboys Need to Pay Him

Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Sports Awards 2017 - Show

Former NFL player, 2 time Super Bowl Champ, and NFL Coach, Rob Ryan sat down with Colin Cowherd to discuss whether Dak Prescott was worthy of being paid top dollar by the Dallas Cowboys.

Colin Cowherd: "You faced Dak Prescott a couple of times when you were in Washington. Dak got your number so would you pay him?"

Rob Ryan: "Oh, there's no question! He and Russell Wilson are the two best quarterbacks in the NFC. I've seen this guy grow from when he was young...This quarterback is so impressive from last season, it was amazing. The year before, he used to take sacks. He'd be in the pocket, he'd hold the ball, get hit and take sacks. He doesn't do that anymore. Moving to Kellen Moore, getting an offensive coordinator, really helped him...He allowed Dak the freedom to check plays, get in the right place and he allows Dak Prescott to function better inside the pocket and then outside the pocket throwing deep than I've seen anybody other than Russell Wilson. He has a tremendous upside. He's been in the league for four years. To me, he's Russell Wilson."

Rob Ryan continues and thinks that the Cowboys should actually move on from Amari Cooper. He felt Cooper disappears in games. "At the end of the year, he's a ghost."
