Pushing the Pile: A CBS Sports NFL Podcast

The deadline for players on the franchise tag to sign an extension has passed and Dak Prescott still doesn't have a long-term deal. Derrick Henry does though! Will Brinson is joined by Ryan Wilson, John Breech and Jared Dubin to break down everything that happened and didn't happen on Wednesday. The guys first focus on Dak and the Cowboys failure to lock up their young QB for the long haul (3:00). How will the situation continue to play out through the season and into next offseason? Next, in a bit of a surprise move, the Titans did come to an agreement with Derrick Henry (35:30) Was it the right move? Will, Ryan, John and Jared also address big new contracts for Chris Jones (41:00) and Myles Garrett (45:00) as well as the other players on the tag that will be playing on 1-year deals. What does the future look like for players like Yannick Ngakoue, AJ Green, Joe Thuney and Hunter Henry? All that and more on this reaction pod. Nominate Pick Six for The People's Choice Podcast Awards: https://www.podcastawards.com/app/signup/Follow the Pick Six team on Twitter: @picksixpod, @willbrinson, @johnbreech, @ryanwilsonCBS, @jadubin5Visit the Pick Six YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/picksixCheck out the Pick Six Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/picksixpod/?hl=enJoin our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/758548147935545/For more NFL coverage from CBS Sports, visit https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

A deadline is approaching! To preview the date (4 pm ET on 7/15) where teams must sign their franchise-tagged players to multi-year deals, Will Brinson welcomes former NFL agent Joel Corry to break it all down. How has this offseason affected potential deals and how will it affect what we see on Wednesday? Will and Joel analyze the likelihood of long-term contracts for Dak Prescott (7:00), Derrick Henry (16:30), Chris Jones (18:30) and a collection of other players on the tag. Plus, the guys dive into Patrick Mahomes' massive extension (28:00). Why did both sides agree to something so long? How much will the contract really dictate the market for others? Joel warns that we shouldn't expect similar deals for Deshaun Watson and Lamar Jackson.
