You're the one babbling you think he'll end up in Washington. :laugh:

Of course, I predicted no such thing.

But I suspect you'll take something out of context, yet again.

He loves to lock people into an all or nothing proposition when that is not what was said and its annoying **

I said Tony will have a dozen suitors and DAL will get at least a 1st in trade...said it months ago and I believe it ....... it is a prediction.....I am not saying there are no other possible outcomes......it is just my prediction

KJJ is obsessed with me being wrong about my prediction for some reason.....you don't 'eat crow' when you get something wrong.......you eat crow when you throw it in the other guy's face over and over....KJJ can't see the difference

You must be as a obsessed with being wrong as mrtxstar to keep harping on getting a first round pick for Romo. :laugh: I see a lot more than you will ever see. :thumbup:

It's better to get something for him but if we can't we have to release him and all the articles that have been posted explain why. You're just trying to waste time.

The articles you posted were from December when the dynamic was different. There was a reason to cut Romo IF WE NEEDED HIS CAP SAVINGS TO GET UNDER THE CAP BY MARCH.

We don't need to anymore. Ergo, there is no incentive now to cut him over trading him from a cap perspective. The fact you keep arguing against this point after multiple people have explained this to you makes me wonder if you are just trolling at this point.

So now that there are no cap implications or benefits here prior to June 1, are you still suggesting that cutting him is better than getting a 5th round pick for him?

I'm already preparing your plate of crow. :laugh:

As I said, take a quote out of context and not understand the concept of tongue in cheek.

Thanks for proving me right.

The one article was from Dec and the other was very recent. Put a lid on the name calling or I'll put a lid on you and any further discussions. Un wad your panties and keep it civil.

It was your quote and you're going to have to live with it. You must have gotten your crystal ball from the same thrift shop as mrtxstar. :laugh:

Where did I call you a name in that post?

Second, the 2nd article you posted was from the USA Today and it said this................

"As far as the cap goes, trading Romo works the exact way as releasing him. The base salary is no longer of concern to Romo, and the prorated and unallocated bonus money accelerates to the current year. Trading Romo gives Dallas the same $5.1 million in extra space, but also provides compensation."

Do you actually read the articles you link? You've been arguing against multiple people over these concepts, claiming you need proof of what is being said and yet the VERY articles you linked to in SN and USA Today prove what people are saying to you.

Thankfully, most people here understand the point I was making. I can't help it if you don't understand concepts like tongue in cheek, etc.

You didn't it was another combatant I'm dealing with. I'm arguing with multiple people who keep trying to make this about me. I read the links and it's time to move on and let everything play out before this thread starts going sideways.

I'll take this as a concession that you now understand that there is no cap benefit to cutting or trading him prior to June 1 at this point.

Until you start understanding points, you're going to get called on everything you post.

You can take whatever you want, the benefits to trading him and releasing him have been posted. There's clearly a benefit to not having him on the team next season which is why he won't be here.

Which is something I have never argued against.

But in the end, there are two pretty irrefutable points to make here:

1) There is no difference in benefits from a cap perspective if you trade or cut him prior to June 1 at this point in time.

2) Getting something for him in terms of compensation is better than getting no compensation at all for him.

I think anyone who disagrees with that is either trolling or simply just has their head in the sand.

Dude, we've been though all of this countless times and you just don't seem to want to let this go. You're just looking to argue all day. It's time to move on!

Actually, I just want to make it painfully clear how random and misguided you were in this thread.

I haven't been wrong about anything I've provided articles while you haven't provided a damn thing. You just want to keep arguing. You're going to end up dead wrong because Romo isn't ending up in Washington.

As of Feb 12 this is what was reported. Releasing Romo post June 1 allows the Cowboys to spilt up $19.6M over two seasons which is why it would take a great trade offer to trade him, justifying taking the full cap hit.

http://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/201...to-release-than-trade-romo-according-to-espn/


CowboysWire broke down the impact to Dallas’s salary cap if Romo is traded several times before. Basically, if Romo is either traded or released, the Cowboys will still carry a $19.6 million charge in dead money of unamortized signing bonuses into next year, which actually saves Dallas $5.1 million on 2017’s cap, given Romo’s cap charge will be $24.7 if he remains on the roster. Either way, the Cowboys are forced to eat dead money if Romo is traded or released.


Cure All: Jerry Jones talks potential role for Jaylon Smith

Graziano then sees Dallas designating Romo a post-June 1st cut, which allows the Cowboys to split up that $19.6 million in dead money over the next two seasons.

“Ultimately I think it gets to the point where they release [Romo], they designated him a post-June 1st cut, and he gets to go where he wants to go. The only thing that could keep them from doing that is if someone made them a fantastic trade offer, where they got something of significant value in return to justify the full cap hit.
