In a world where Carr is making $25m/yr, Tannehill is making $29.5m/yr, Cousins is making $33m/yr, and Dak Prescott is getting $29-30m for 1 year... Dalton is just a hurt starter and a stretch of 3-4 good (not even great) starts away from making at least $20m/yr.
What starting gigs are open right now though that would want to give Dalton $20 mill a year?
NE is really the only wide open one.
MIA is likely to take a QB at 5 and has Fitzmagic as a stopgap.
LAC is likely to take a QB at 3 and has Taylor as a stopgap.
Minshew did well for JAX last year (3200 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs in 12 starts), so they may not view Dalton worth $20 mill a year. They may be interested in Dalton though in the $8-12 mill range to compete with Minshew.
DEN may be interested in Dalton to compete with Lock, but they may want to roll with Lock as their starter given he ended with a 4-1 record last year.

Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
