2/13: The Cowboys could be interested in Colt McCoy. - Todd Archer, ESPN

The Cowboys are keeping their cards close to their chest this offseason, and while their has been much speculation over them drafting a quarterback, owner Jerry Jones has made it known that he doesn't believe his franchise must take a quarterback in the upcoming draft. If the Cowboys don't draft a quarterback and are looking to sign a viable backup option for Romo on the free agent market, Commanders quarterback Colt McCoy could be a "interesting option," according to ESPN's Todd Archer.

McCoy's agent represents Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett, and the quarterback they acquired at the beginning of last season was Cassel, according to Archer. For that reason, it's plausible to see a potential deal being done and McCoy returning to the state where he played in college. The former Longhorns quarterback would likely not be a long-term solution, but it would provide the Cowboys with a viable backup who can lead them to wins if needed.

This seems more likely. I think rg3 will want to go somewhere he can start.

And I think he has better options than sitting behind Romo in Dallas.

Houston (also in Texas) has a need for a starter.

Denver could have an opening, depending on what Osweiler is offered.

And the LA Rams would be an interesting story and option. One which seems to be gaining momentum.

As is typical with this organization, a year too late.

Of course there is better late than never, I suppose. But this year's season will produce a new set of problems we will wish we would have addressed this offseason. Stephen will probably label those new problems priority number one for next offseason. And so the cycle goes.

I doubt McCoy has any ramifications on our draft. He comes in as the emergency guy and will be backup until the rookie is ready to go.

I don't think we double down. If we sign a QB, I would highly doubt we draft a QB in the first. After all, spending a fourth pick on a guy to be inactive for two seasons is too much. If we get a QB, I want him to be active with a headset on and ready to get some game reps if called upon.

I thought this might be some new inside information, but it was just Archer saying that McCoy would be "interesting." The only real information from the team is that Linehan really likes Moore.
