dezertbill Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 (edited) Many thought Denver would be prime spot for Romo but with them out I think it lands on Texans or Bills. I think with our new coaching staff Romo gives us consideration. Two years from Romo would give Cardale time to grow. This is of course plan B if they don't want TT But facing Dallas as much as Carolina has Im sure McDermott would love to have a QB like Romo. Although Texans D and being close to Dallas would be enticing for Romo, I see the Bills offering more in trade (making cap room to do so) if they really wanted him.

Boatdrinks Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I would take Romo as a bridge too drafted QB. The shot he took would have knocked out just about any QB.
bobobonators Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Two years from romo? At this point id be happy to take two consecutive games.
NoSaint Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I believe the last they faced off romo had 106 yards and 3 ints I only went back 3 years but that's the only time I saw, so not sure "as often as he faced romo" is accurate
Kelly the Dog Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Two years from romo? At this point id be happy to take two consecutive games. That's all you would get.
John from Riverside Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I want TT back but If this is the direction we go so be it......we need to draft a qb if we do this (but we also needed to draft one if we kept TT and his option)
QB Bills Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 His back is held together with rubber bands and paper maché. No thanks.
Andrew Son Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 It would be exciting, like a lotto ticket.
John from Riverside Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 His back is held together with rubber bands and paper maché. No thanks. I feel the same way....I just dont want to be left with starting a rookie
NoSaint Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 It would be exciting, like a lotto ticket. Yup I think he's a better qb than most give credit for I also would worry about his health but his cap hits and dead money go waaaaaaay down in a trade (signing bonus, amortization from 2 restructurings and option bonus amortization all stay in Dallas) The only thing is it's hard to trade for him and commit picks at the position immediately -- you'd essentially end up needing to get a cheap vet and draft a guy next year logistically speaking
Wayne Arnold Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I don't see any way someone trades for Romo with the cap hit he has combined the injury risk.
GunnerBill Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I'd add the Jets and depending on who ends up there as GM and HC the 49ers to the list of possible destinations. Buffalo San Francisco Houston New York Jets
John from Riverside Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Tony Romo the football player is intriguing and awesome Tony Romo the person is a scary injury risk
NoSaint Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I don't see any way someone trades for Romo with the cap hit he has combined the injury risk. He'd come with no guarantees in the contract and a 14m salary this year (would be about the cheapest planned starter) The following years at 19.5 and 20.5 would be less than ideal but aren't guaranteed. If you wanted, and the pick was right, he could be a low salary 1 year rental. If he stays healthy you can play it out until you find a better option and 19.5 isn't outrageous at qb.
Maury Ballstein Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Romo is the man. All the CoT'ers w the 2 games if lucky nonsense. News flash. If Taylor magically became 5x better he might be Romo. Why won't they make a trade with Denver? Don't wanna put Denver in the bowl so easily.
GunnerBill Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Why won't they make a trade with Denver? They don't want him.

His injury history doesn't make him any more likely to get injured next year. I'd make the move if they aren't shot in the a$$ with Taylor. The passing game would drastically improve instantly
Andrew Son Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I'd give up a 3rd for Romo right now. Romo to Sammy would be fun. Maybe we get lucky and he stays healthy for a year. I'm sure we could develop an offense that could minimize QB hits, especially with our run game. Strong run game and Romo play action is a recipe for success
