Then, we package the highest number 1 (ours or Minnesota's) plus our number 2 and go up and get Luck as the next Troy to restore the franchise. We will still retain the lower number 1 to trade down and restore our offensive line, another cornerback, etc. etc.

Above allows Romo to get away from Jerry, go back north, but still play in a domed stadium and he will feel a glaring need for the Vikings. He will be playing behind a good O-line, good receivers, great running back etc. etc.

Ps. We retain Kitna to school luck next year and teach him the fine points of the game. Also, probably will be a rookies salary cap next year so Jerry won't have to break his piggy bank.

If you're going to trade away a franchise player, you best be getting a franchise player in return. Greenway/Abdullah/1st for Romo? Thats laughable

Also, Luck has not declared..Some say he wont

Besides the fact that we would be sticking it to the Vikings again (which would be pretty funny), I don't think Luck is that slam dunk guy to go after.


I mean, maybe I'm wrong, but every time I see a big time play from him, it's when he has all day to throw. In the NFL, and especially in Dallas, you better be able to create some time, or yous a gonna die.
I am the the most realistic fan ever.

Don't forget trade Miles and Ware. Yeah lets get rid of all our franchise players. There are literally "fans" here that want to trade Tony, Witten, Dez, Miles and Ware. All of them and start over.

Don't trade Romo, however, consider taking a QB in the 1st round if a good one is available.

Look how it turned out for Green Bay. They took Rogers when Favre still had a few good years -- ie, they didn't need to draft a QB, but they did. He sat for 3 years behind Favre and came in and was good right away. Because of it the Packers are looking at potentially a 30 year stretch of top 10 QB play (if Rogers plays 10 or so years). It is any wonder that it has translated to the Packers being pretty consistently good over that time span?

Ok. If we knew that Luck was the next Ryan or Bradford, and we also got a inside starting linebacker and a starting SS. Why and the heck wouldn't we at least consider it. I mean, wouldn't that in the long run help the team?

Take off your blinders and look at how bad this team is this year. Both Greenway and their SS would be a signifficant upgrade in our defense for sure.

Greenway and a top safety would be an upgrade but not having a top QB would be crushing. I have seen this team without a good QB and frankly I would go with our current LB and safety before I got rid of our QB they are too damn hard to find

But we don't, so you can't exactly throw that out there as a given.

You'll never know for sure. Look how many top 10 QBs have flamed out. The Packers didn't know when they took Rogers and he turned out good. I wonder how much of it for Rogers was related to the fact that he wasn't thrown into the fire right away -- that he had three years to mature, learn how to study, and watch another great QB.

For all we know the Joey Harringtons, Akili Smiths, Alex Smiths, etc, etc, all might have turned out like Rogers had they been able to sit for three years and watch a great QB every day and been nurtured by a QB friendly coaching staff.

Your logic is kind of crazy here.

I think you are the one with blinders on right now and everyone else is trying to help you take them off.

Seriously this is not Madden.

The vikings are not going to trade away picks and multiple players for Romo. If they want a QB that bad they would just trade those players and pick(s) to move up to the first slot and take Luck.

Furthermore let's just say for some crazy, they all lose their minds, madden like draft scenario did play out and they traded all of that for Romo and we got the 2 first round picks and we try to trade them to the Panthers in order to get Luck and they say...Thanks but No thanks, we are going to take our sure fire Franchise QB because we might not get another chance to get a player like this.

So..we now have no Luck and no Romo.



Geez

I swear I think I am going to need a 55 gallon drum of Valium before next season starts with all of those silly scenarios.

So trade Romo for a LB and safety that you say will give us good play at those positions for the next 3-5 years, in favor of hopefully getting a QB who will be ready to lead this team to a Superbowl in 3-5 years.

So basically trade Romo, and our chances at being a Superbowl contender over the next couple of years, for two players who probably won't be good by the time the QB you want to draft is good enough to take us to a Superbowl?

Yeah that makes a lot of sense to me.
