TRADED Cowboys trade for Joe Milton

[KJJ]

The Patriots had seen enough and realized Milton can’t play. Same thing with the 49ers and Trey Lance. Jerry Jones is an all day sucker.

He was 22 of 29 for 241 yards and a TD with a 111.4 passer rating the final week of the season in the only action he saw all season. The Pats saw very little of him and when he got an opportunity he played well even if it was against Buffalo’s backups. I wouldn’t be comparing him to Lance.

The Cowboys were going to use a 5th round pick on a developmental QB anyway.

So they just got one with a little more NFL experience. Not a bad move at all.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Yes, but to be fair they did more than due diligence on Dak. He was brought in like 4 times or something over the top.

They did which was odd….i would give them their due for Dak because they did put work in but tried to get those other guys…

He also had an amazing TD pass where he avoided three sacks while scrambling that was called back by a penalty in that game.

 

[Pass2Run]

Maybe they will give him another entire PS game to highlight him for a trade.
Only to announce he will be released otherwise.

Poor Trey Lance.

We were his last shot before he leaves for the Canadian league.

 

[Carson]

For me it all boils down to if ya think Will Grier or Joe Mton are an upgrade at backup QB over Cooper Rush.

Personally, I say no.
But opinions vary.

Cowboys!

Talent wise? Rush doesn’t hold a candle to Milton. But Rush is a vet who knows how to win in the league.

Good win for Dallas. Rush was too expensive and you get Milton for 3 years on a rookie deal

It was gonna be another Dinucci or McGee….

exactly Lance played backups and had some good plays but in the end showed even against backups he couldn't take care of the ball..its not much but this guy showed in a real game he can at least take care of the ball.

Lewis?

i was very worried they would fleece Jerry, again im fearful of the other shoe falling now..

I was too I really thought he was gonna trade a 4th or 3rd.

Let's hope Milton changes that trend.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

To those wondering the Cowboys sent the 171st pick to the Patriots in exchange for Milton and the Patriots' 7th round pick this year. So Dallas still has ten overall selections (none in the 4th round).

 

[CowboyFrog]

Best case this guy shows some promise gets some play this year and pressures Dak next season..worst case your drafting Daks replacement the next 2 years which you were doing anyway...

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I don't think that's it.......I mean, he has zero financial leverage. I'm thinking the kid just can't play .........brainwise/intangibles. We have to assume Jerry wanted him to work out real bad. Dak went down, he couldn't beat out Rush. We know it takes a lot for the NFL to give up on talent.

But we’ve seen teams give Ryan Leaf and others a chance. Will Grier is on a roster. I suspect Lance will be at least in someone’s camp. Probably advised to wait it out.

The Bills were locked into the #2 seed so this came against their backups. I’m a Vols fan and watched a lot of Milton. Rocket arm but accuracy is crap. You will see.

Yeah man, I'm genuinely excited at this guys potential. If it doesn't work out we lost very little and the odds are he will be a serviceable back up at worst. We needed a back up and he cost very little. There's not much reason to complain about this move.

 

[zrinkill]

Milton will be starting soon ...... good trade

 

[GMO415]

A new era in Dallas.

You don't make this move unless you're disgusted with Prescott.

Joneses are definitely looking to replace Dak within two years.

Poor Trey Lance.

He may be back. Gets some experience. Some NFL will take a chance on him.
