Signed by Cowboys 49ers Trade QB Trey Lance to the Cowboys for 2024 4th round pick

[Whyjerry]

I'm saying what EVERYBODY is saying. He's been erratic.

And that's without a pass rush.

Again what are you talking about??? Listen to the Locked On guys. They are heaping praise on him. Lots of guys talking about how good of shape he is. McCarthy is praising him. Seriously what are you talking about?

 

[CowboyStar88]

I am very interested if we see some of that. Maybe later in the year. Not sure they want to mess with that.

I could see it considering how athletic Lance is. If you’re asking him to make an RPO play on shortage it’s not a bad idea. Less risk in Dak in those situations. Obviously you wouldn’t do it all the time. But you know what I mean.

 

[mcmvp]

Sometimes, it can be good. It helped Dak, didn't it? The thought that Romo could take over any game was pressure for Dak. It ended up working quite well.....until the Packers game (during which, I still think the reffing was a bit crap).

I think that’s wishful thinking… In most cases, distraction is not a good thing

 

[erod]

Hahaha.....how long will it be until Fish....aka Mickey Jr.... does a 180 and talks about what a great acquisition this was....this should be delicious!!! Starts at 5:05

It is a great acquisition for just a 4th round pick on a team not in immediate need of a quarterback.

 

[Reid1boys]

He was responding to me. I like Dak. I've made that clear. However, competition is never a bad thing, is it?

They're is zero competition. Dak is competing against himself, not Lance..if dak plays well.....hell get the big extension... lance may be used as a pawn by Jerry.

NO he wont. LOL

The kid cant even read a defense at this point and doenst even know the system. Rush is a much better QB right now. Lance will need several years.

I don't think he will need several years, and neither does the FO. Why would the FO use a 4th (which they've used to great effect compared to most teams of late) on him if he's going to need several years of development? Plus, he didn't exactly play much in SFO (through no fault of his own).

Could be the answer on some short yardage plays if we are struggling there.

 

[Bigdog]

A 6th or 7th I wouldn't have cared.

But yeah a 4th was a bit much imo.

I really have zero hopes for him.

Agree. 6th or 7th no biggie for me. A 4th is little too much for me. The Cowboys have done well in the 4th round

You don't listen to DFW media apparently.

He's not been awful. He's just preseason Dak. Lots of picks.

I could see that, and it's all the more reason that the FO has a lot of flexibility now. However, I think Lance is a better QB than some here think.

 

[Hennessy_King]

Great move by jerrah

 

[gmb1]

Micah already following him on Twitter and Trey still has his forty whiner crap on there

 

[Setackin]

Yeah but QB is the premier position, if he works out, we have a Dak replacement or high draft pick compensation.

Agreed

 

[Chuck 54]

I have no angst over the trade.

But I also don't view $3 mil AAV cap space, a 4th round pick, and a roster spot...as 'nothing'.

For a QB it is.

 

[Bigdog]

How could they have gotten him for less? If he got cut, he would be claimed before the Cowboys got on the clock.

Maybe a 6th or 7th. I wouldn’t care then. 4th to me is little too much.

 

[erod]

Agree. 6th or 7th no biggie for me. A 4th is little too much for me. The Cowboys have done well in the 4th round

Who are the best 5 fourth-round picks in the last 20 years?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Well, maybe in the short term in some situations, but even you have to admit that the results can be good. Worked out for you lot, didn't it?

 

[The Quest for Six]

So Dallas traded for a guy that hasn't got the playing time he needs to develop in SF, when is he going to get any time in Dallas to play and develop???? .......Drew Henson comes to mind!

 

[AsthmaField]

Well, I don’t have high expectations… but you never know. Maybe without the pressure he had in SF he will fulfill the promise he showed when they drafted him.

Worth a shot for a 4th.

Lance is athletic and has some major arm talent, but needs to develop touch. I don't mind rolling the dice here. Looks a LOT better than Will Grier to me.
