IF this is true........it's a done deal. I doubt he leaves w/o a contract.
There will be competition regardless of what some Twitter hack says.Garrett Gilbert deserves to be the back up just on the sole fact he took over for an injured Colt McCoy in the national championship game against Alabama and almost won.
Hook Em
He likes bacon long walks on the beach and posting nekkit.
And the disrespect of Gilbert and DiNucci continues
Granted this is a highlight but he looks mobile to me
And he ran a 4.5 40 shows great arm strength..
Got a little scoot to him.Jeff Driskel looks very good! Definitely better than Garrett Gilbert and the rest of the bunch backups currently on this roster.
I would not be surprised if the Cowboys sign Jeff Driskel by the end of the day today.
I would personally call Jacksonville and see what they waned for Garner Minshew. He has two years left on his rookie contract, both under 1M (850K/965K). The current depth chart in Jacksonville puts him on the outside: Lawrence, Beathard, Minshew, and Luton.
there is another difference, foles only got to start many games in a row, dueGarbage? Um. No offense. It came down to the last play. Give the guy his due.
this is a family forum.Awesome!! What’s your arm length though?
Agreed. I was really hoping for a guy like Kellen Mond in the middle rounds.I would have preferred someone drafted by the Cowboys in about the 3rd to 5th round in his 3rd or 4th year with the team. Dak goes down, this guy knows the system, knows the players. He is motivated by the fact that he can be showcased to other teams since his rookie contract ends either that year or the next.
If he should succeed then the Cowboys can trade him the following season and reap huge rewards.
I would really like to see the Cowboys make a commitment to draft a Quarterback about every three years in the midrange of the draft. I've always considered 6th and 7th rounders to be an exercise in futility unless they have a really great and exclusive scouting info on him. Perhaps its someone that graded out much much higher on their board. And, yes, I'm including Brady in that group.
Home grown QB backups seem to make a lot more sense in terms of familiarity, salary, and especially potential.
That's what they did when they drafted Dak. That turned out pretty good, don't you agree?
Garbage? Um. No offense. It came down to the last play. Give the guy his due.
First off, I don't care that you referred to me as coming off like an idiot because I gave MY opinion of a player. Can we not debate on this forum without being attacked?Before you start talking about someone's "entire NFL career", you should probably know what you're talking about or you will most assuredly sound like an idiot as you just did. Garrett Gilbert is an established veteran QB, prior to coming to the Cowboys he had multiple years of game time experience. The game he started in 2020 with the Cowboys came down to the last play. Your misrepresentation of his performance during that game only makes you look foolish. It's a matter in the record books and we all saw the game. Revising history as you tried to do... shameful.
I agree that Dinucci wasn't ready. However, Romo showed signs that he could make plays. He gave you hope. Dinucci left me wondering how he was ever even a college QB. Ever throw, except his first throw, was wild and awkward looking. Having OTAs, training camp, and preseason games should benefit him. Hopefully, he can show us something in preseason.Not to defend DiNucci, as he didn't play well...but he's still inexperienced in the NFL. When Romo came into the NFL, didn't he throw more with a sidearm than traditional and had to learn to correct his mechanics?
I'm not saying DiNucci is anything close to what Romo was, but the dude was a rookie and a 7th round draft pick...those guys are typically development projects and shouldn't even see play-time their rookie year.
Like Gilbert, not DiNucciAnd the disrespect of Gilbert and DiNucci continues
