They see it as the perfect compromise because they are trapped by their own silliness in thinking Romo is the QB for the next 4-5 years without question.
Prescott allows them to think they've secured their Romo safety net all the while keeping their premium picks to use on players that will hopefully strengthen the team around Romo.
I am going to hate this draft I can feel it... Great way to ruin my bday.. *** you JJ
Your day got ruined because we brought in a QB prospect to look at?

Just because Jerry says 4-5 years, it doesn't mean they intend to manage the team that way.
It remains to be seen what they'd do if Wentz makes it to 4. He probably won't. Trading up is too expensive, so if both QBs are gone, it's Lynch or a fallback. Dak in the fourth or later is as good a fallback as any.
I don't have a problem with Dak as a developmental prospect. But we'd need a legit backup QB if we go that route. And we need to be realistic that the chances of hitting on Dak are not good. At some point, we're going to need to commit to the replacement process.
I still think Nkemdiche is their guy at 34. Dak could well be 67 though.
I'm with you on this. Dak has a ton of good qualities. Strong, good arm, decisive, playmaker. It's the thought that they'll bypass the higher rated quarterbacks solely because they like Dak so much that bothers me.
Honestly, other than Lynch, they're not going to have to make that call. Somebody will trade for Wentz at 2 or at 3. Too many teams need QBs.
I'd rather they get in position and take Lynch and a pick, myself, but that might not be an option. Otherwise, I like Dak in the 4th a lot better than Cook in the 2nd or Hack anywhere.
premeditated drama?
At this point you would have to think Dak Prescott is going to be a Dallas Cowboy unless another team grabs him earlier than Dallas anticipates.
1st Rd - Bosa
2nd Rd - Henry
3rd Rd - Prescott
Wonderful.
