You really don't know that for sure. This team is close to being a championship team IMO. With FA and a strong defensive draft were there. If there was a sure fire franchise QB there St #4 then take him. But there isn't so take the defensive BPA at #4 and maybe a QB in the 2nd or 3rd. Leaning in the 3rd.

That 4-12 record we had last year tells me otherwise.

I want to win now and next year. We need alot of help on defense. Use that money to get another FA on the defense. It's a no brainer and it looks like the FO agrees. We'll see.

last year we lost because Tony was out for most of the year, the defense kept the team in most games. Did you not watch the season last year. We spent and a second on defense last year, a second and third on one player the year before. We have a top 6 pick at one CB and a third rounder in the DL. Resources have been spent there.

I watched and saw the defense rank last in turnovers. We need play makers on defense. Drafting a QB at #4 is going to do nothing next year to rectify losing Romo. Zilch.

I guess its just me but with the defense we have there is no way we are near being a championship team. this team needs speed on defense and offense and playmakers. 2014 we had a golden chance and we spit the bit.

QB is the most important position on the field. The money we spend on a rookie will be a bargain when Romo is off the books.

Yes. Romo is falling apart.

I hope you are wrong, but if this is what is believed, there is no choice.

I love Romo and I don't think it is true, but still can't say no to QB at #4 if there is a chance he won't play at least two more years.

your not thinking long term here - so what do we do in two years when Romo retires ?

Yeah, taking a QB at #4 and paying him $5MM or so isn't that far out of line with what backups are getting. Sanchez makes $5.5MM in Philly. Henne is making $4MM a year. Daniel is making nearly $5MM in KC.

Do we really want to invest in the most important position on the field?

I mean think about it, guys. Do we REALLY?

No, get a QB. Duh. After 2 Championships we'll have a 4-12 or worse year and draft one.

I'd rather avoid another 4-12 season thank you vey much
Plus there is no given of falling to the bottom again soon.
No matter what you say to win your argument
play it right
