Contract talks are starting to heat up in Dallas.

The Dallas Cowboys could prioritize offering a contract extension to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb before Dak Prescott and Micah Parsons. 

According to ESPN's Todd Archer, talks with Lamb could begin soon, as the team might be able to finalize a deal before training camp. 

The 25-year old standout wide receiver is coming off one of his best seasons as a pro, posting 135 catches for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns.

It was his third consecutive Pro Bowl campaign with more than 1,100 receiving yards. 

Considering the current market for wide receivers, Lamb should get a lofty contract extension based on his high production level.

So far, talented receivers like A.J. Brown of the Philadelphia Eagles and Amon-Ra St. Brown have re-signed with their respective teams.

Three of the Cowboys' best players, Micah Parsons, Dak Prescott, and CeeDee Lamb, could all be looking at big-money deals.

Archer noted that the Cowboys are putting Parsons and Prescott's potential contract extensions on the back burner and are prioritizing a Lamb contract.

Prescott has been present for offseason workouts with the Cowboys, while Parsons and Lamb have not been.

Dallas should be planning to bring back all three on long-term extensions.

The Cowboys experienced great success with all three last season, winning 12 games in the regular season but having a disappointing end to their year. One that saw them fall to the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs.

Dak Prescott has been the franchise's starting quarterback since his rookie season. Prescott has continued to improve his play, helping keep Dallas competitive, despite the negative criticism he receives.

Micah Parsons, who has missed most of the team's OTAs, is coming off one of his best seasons, demonstrating that he is one of the top linebackers in the league.

Prescott has until 2025 to get a deal done with the Cowboys, as Parsons' contract too expires next year.
