He\u2019s set to make some significant bank in his fifth year, but it probably won\u2019t be with the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p>That is according to\u00a0PFF\u2019s Mason Cameron, who has Bland down as the No. 1 free agent CB for 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The NFC East outfit is already paying\u00a0Trevon Diggs\u00a0a massive sum after agreeing to a five-year, $97 million deal in 2023 and isn\u2019t expected to keep both players. They haven\u2019t opened extension talks with DaRon Bland and curiously drafted a cornerback this year.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\"><iframe id=\"fitvid16282\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xl1DT4msmpc?si=B1kZEYQrfBewTpsU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_324899\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-324899\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-324899\" title=\"&quot;He's Gone&quot; Cowboys To Walk Away From 30-Game Starter (Breaking) 2\" src=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-scaled.jpg.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-scaled.jpg.webp 2560w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-933x600.jpg 933w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-768x494.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-1536x988.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-2048x1317.jpg.webp 2048w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-150x96.jpg.webp 150w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-450x289.jpg.webp 450w, https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/USATSI_25121617_168400517_lowres-1200x772.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Jan 5, 2025; Arlington, Texas, USA; Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (17) makes the game-winning touchdown catch over Dallas Cowboys cornerback DaRon Bland (26) during the fourth quarter at AT&amp;T Stadium.

He also set the single-season record with five pick-sixes that year. However, the Cowboys have some great options at the position, including Diggs, a two-time Pro Bowler who led the\u00a0NFL\u00a0with 11 INTs in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>If Bland remains healthy, he should command a massive salary after the 2025 season. Spotrac has projected that he will be worth at least a four-year, $94 million contract, which would make him one of the highest-paid CBs in the league, despite his missing 10 games last season.<\/p>\n<p>There is the risk of the number going down should he miss a significant part of the upcoming term, but it could also go up if he remains true to form.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_306286\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-306286\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-306286\" title=\"&quot;He's Gone&quot; Cowboys To Walk Away From 30-Game Starter (Breaking) 3\" src=\"https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/USATSI_21497864-scaled-e1734548631122.webp\" alt=\"Sep 24, 2023; Glendale, Arizona, USA; Detail view of a Dallas Cowboys helmet in the second half against the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium.
