However, this deal is reeruned. It's Jerry though, and this is the type of stupidity that has them in the crappy cap position they are in.

Of course it's reeruned, but it's reeruned because of Ozzie Newsome.
Newsome detonated the market for quarterbacks and the NFL absolutely blasted the Cowboys with their cap penalty. The Cowboys were going to have to start cutting important players to clear the cap space to sign their draft picks.
Or they could extend Romo and spread his cap hit. They had absolute shit for leverage here and Romo's agent knew it. Romo was going to demand to get paid near Flacco because his performance over the last 5 seasons supports it.
It's not necessarily Jerry Jones' fault; his options were damn limited.
