No one will claim Moore and he will wind up back on the practice squad. No way we 3 QB's on the 53 for now. Plus practice squad is no up to 10 players.

supposedly they need his "veteran presence" to help Dak.

If Kellen's presence is that vital to Dak, perhaps they should make him an assistant QB coach. Although, if that's truly the case, though, what does it say about QB Coach Wilson, Linehan, Garrett and the rest of the staff? Could it be that someone is falling short of what might otherwise be expected? It seems to me that QB Coach Wilson should have that covered himself. If that's not the case, it would seem change is in order.

Well, I said next year we need to draft Daks backup, but Rush seems to be ready to be that guy. BTW, he looks just like Weeden with his helmet on.

As long as he doesn't throw like Weeden I'm ok with that

the second Rush is done in the final pre-season game and is uninjured, I think that you may see the Moore announcement

from my viewpoint, other than the obvious stats disparity, the big difference is that with moore in an actual game, the play book gets dummied down and he is a game-manager....with Coop (yes, his friends call him Coop, even if he doesn't know about me), the full playbook is still in place

Moore=safer, duller
Coop=scarier, more exciting

Cooper is going to get us a very nice pick, or three, in the next few years.

I'm OK with this because it will mean that Dak is the player we all know he is and Rush deserves to play. Win win for all.

Why would Dallas trade him in a few years? The backup qb's they have had for years have sucked, now it seems we have found a solid qb2 and Dallas trades him? Not going to happen imo.

We turned into a QB factory the last 2 years but, DE :(

It's only preseason but we are only basing Rush based on preseason as well. We have actually had two very impressive new addition defensive ends this preseason in Moore and Charlton.

Pretty simple.

If he is as impressive to other teams as he is to us...we only have 4 years with him. If year 3 rolls around and another team calls offering us a first...do you turn them down knowing he will leave for big
money in a season?

Maybe just maybe Dallas has put together a coaching staff that can excel at developing young quarterbacks.

What did we base Dak on? When I saw Dak play in Seattle I knew we had something special. I believe the same thing with Rush.
