News: ESPN: What Cowboys saw in Trey Lance and what's next for the former 49ers QB

[Reality]

Jerry signed him for scouting purposes.
We gotta get past the 9ers!

Everyone knows why they traded for him. The starting QB has reached his ceiling and there are doubts about him. Dallas would consider moving on from Dak next offseason if there is no playoff success this year. 2024 Cooper Rush would be the starter with Lance as backup. Rush is 5-1 as a starter with the same roster as Dak. (2-0 at home) (3-1 on the road).

Good read.
A number of things covered - trade timeline, Cowboys' info about Lance before being drafted, likely contract scenario for 2024; insighful quotes from the GM, HC, and player.
Thanks for the link.

Lance is a developmental prospect and is a bag of tools at this point.

I still have zero issues trading a 4th rounder for him and don’t know why anyone else would.

I cant fault this trade. It was 2 good to pass on.

This new offense makes the QB nothing more than a bus driver, and Rush can do this as good or better than Dak for a lot less money. This might very well be the reason why Trey was signed. Dak can't be trusted and I think we're seeing signs of this with the play call selection.

lol...The desperate attempts of justification believing Dak will be gone are sad. Wait until Dak gets resigned. I can only imagine the responses and how worse they will get.

Todd Archer asked all the questions we wanted to know.

He could get resigned if he has playoff success. If Dallas goes out like they did in 2022, Dak is not returning.

The most illuminating quote of the article. Delivered by Jerry.
We all know it.
At least he's not pretending like it's not true.

“I didn’t have to go through any committee meetings. That’s the nature of our system around here is that I don’t have to talk to the owner, I don’t have to coax the general manager. I just do it.”

I think he's just talking. While I do believe he did what he want....I'm sure he had McClay and co. right next to him. McCarthy doesn't care. He's just gonna coach the guys that's presented to him and get the most out of them.

This quote from the article brought back some bad..bad memories:

"After quarterback Troy Aikman’s retirement following the 2001 season and the ascension of Tony Romo from undrafted free agent to Pro Bowler in 2006, the Cowboys went through Quincy Carter, Chad Hutchinson, Ryan Leaf, Clint Stoerner, Anthony Wright, Vinny Testaverde, Drew Henson and Drew Bledsoe as their starting quarterbacks."

You know, I was thinking the other day that Rush could easily run this offense. Short passes, don’t have to do difficult completions or qb runs, so this makes sense.

It's not that easy. Lots of hurdles in the way and questions yet to be answered.
