On April 18th, Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey just lost a big bargaining chip. As a restricted free agent, the team slapped a second round tinder on him. That meant other squads could offer deals, but if Dallas matched, they'd keep him without losing a pick. The deadline passed with zero bites, so now the Cowboys control everything in extension talks. Talks were supposed to be smooth sailing. Folks figured Dallas would throw $7.5 million a year over four years. On him, the top paid kicker, and call it done. But Aubrey's pushing for more than their opening bid around $7 million per year average value, dragging things out longer than expected. Fans and insiders see this as no big drama. Aubrey loves Dallas and wants to stay, but his options suck now, hash out a new deal, sign the tinder for $5.76 million dollars this, coming season, or hope for a trade. Most bets are he'll play on that tinder, keeping the star in silver and blue. Harrison's show why guarantees might be the real fight.

Houston's Cayemi Fair Baron leads at $6.5 million per year average value, while Kansas City's Harrison Bucker packs the most cash up front at. $17.75 million guaranteed, Aubrey's all-prostat is means he deserves elite money, but Dallas ain't sweating. Bottom line, the Cowboys hold every card, so expected deal before camp heats up. They'll lock in their reliable lay without breaking the bank, and Aubrey stays putting up points where he thrives.
