Cowboys and Brandon Weeden agree to 2-year deal

[Avery]

Just checked Weeden's birth date; what's B.C. mean?

 

[Silver N Blue]

LOST
DE DeMarcus Ware
DT Jason Hatcher

ADDED
DE Jeremy Mincey
DT Terrell McClain
QB Brandon Weeden

Hence my "optimism" thread....

The good news is that one out of every two passes he throws gets in the general vicinity of what he is throwing at.

A "like" just doesn't seem appropriate here my man. I vote for a "Drink 'em if you got 'em" button

 

[Questfor6]

Wasn't he Dez's quarterback in college?

No he's was Blackmons, Dez had Zac Robinson

 

[TwoCentPlain]

A "real" GM chose Weeden in the 1st round two years ago. "If only we had a real GM..."

Ponder, Gabbert and Weeden all 1st rd busts. How does this happen to "real" GMs?

I'd rather have Tanney back than Weeden, though. But, hey, we get an arm for camp who was a former 1st rd pick just two years ago for the vet min. Can't complain about that especially if Orton does retire.

I still wouldn't pass on Manziel if he were there at 16 though.

 

[Wolfpack]

Every time I've watched him play he looked incompetent and lost.

Watching him on tape made Jerry feel comfortable.

 

[WV Cowboy]

Put this into perspective, we get rid of players like Demarcus ware and Jason hatcher and sign players that the CLEVELAND BROWNS released ....

 

[Risen Star]

He was on the team but didn't play.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Weeden has the worst QBR over the last two years of any player (min. 500 att), but cant get mad a league min.

 

[Doomsday101]

Two year deal for the minimum. Tough to get too upset here. I'd cut Orton loose now and if Romo goes down I'd rather we take the Suck for Luck style approach.

Since no one is getting paid right now Dallas has no need to release Orton at this stage and with Romo down right now we will need the arms in OTA's

 

[zack]

On the bright side, at least he doesn't throw as many interceptions as Eli Manning.....

 

[17yearsandcounting]

I refuse to believe that they couldnt have done any better than this clown.

The fact that our acclaimed duo of QB development liked him isnt very reassuring either. They liked Stephen McGee at one point, too.

 

[TheCount]

Meh, I can live with it.

 

[The Quest for Six]

I can. He sucks.

well then, he'll fit right in with the Cowboys, they suck too.......lol

 

[daschoo]

I like the idea behind taking a recent high draft pick qb who hasn't worked out on a bad team. I don't like it though when he was playing behind a pretty decent line and had a running game until this year when that was replaced by a breakout receiver.

 

[Risen Star]

Put this into perspective, we get rid of players like Demarcus ware and Jason hatcher and sign players that the CLEVELAND BROWNS released ....

So far we've turned DeMarcus Ware into Jeremy Mincey, Jason Hatcher into Terrell McClain and possibly Kyle Orton into Brandon Weeden.

I may have to lower case letter my GO COWBOYS! this year if this keeps up.

Talk about twisting the story.
