Freeman wants to get traded because he's not the starter...what makes you think he'd sign a new deal, for less money, in Dallas to be the backup? lol

That was way before my time, so I'll have to take your word on the accuracy of that one. lol

lol, it also shows how rare it is, you are correct about that. But Plunkett was that guy. A true franchise QB out of Stanford, ended up on a horrible Patriots team and got beat up. Goes to SF and does nothing there. Finally goes to Oakland as a backup at 32 years of age, ends up becoming the starter, and they won 2 Super Bowls with him.

I don't know that he would. I was asking the question if he was willing to do that would we want him? Lets be honest, Dallas is one of the few places where a guy might be willing to take less money and agree to a lesser role if he thought there might be a future in it.

No thanks.

The guy isn't committed to being an NFL QB.

He would get eaten alive in this market.

Reading over your article, that clearly states he restructured his current contract. They didn't give him a different contract.

Actually, I should have worded it differently in my original post. All I meant it, if he was willing to make contract changes so that it made it affordable for us. I'm just giving you a hard time anyway ;). Like I said in my first post, I don't even know if it is possible.

I think we should go get Freeman & Sanchez, the more the merrier.

I know you aren't being serious, but honestly, Freeman vs. Sanchez from a physical ability point of view isn't even close. Sanchez can't compete with Freeman from that standpoint.

just what we need, a 8 million dollar backup qb who is a free agent at the end of the season which means you have to give him a new deal. talent aside we don't have 8 million in cap space

I dont think it would be a good investment, I think Freeman is still young enough to feel he is a starter. I would perfer Dallas draft a young guy to groom to be the next QB.

Talent? he had 1 good year and is hitting less than 50% completions this season

I think they should consider him and sit him so he can learn, he was thrown in the fire in Tampa, I don't think he learned the right way, bring him in and let him watch and learn behind Romo if it don't workout cut him.

If he is causing team conflicts, then we have our answer. You live in Tampa (it sounds like), so you would know more than I.

Yeah Tampa resident and Freeman has been the talk of the town since last year. He gets around pretty often and likes the ladies more than he likes his paycheck. Maybe when he grows up.

What about JaMarcus Russell? I heard he is making a comeback!
