Yes because I want upside..

I’d rather take a risk then go with Dak and get a non difference maker.

This team has played it safe for a long time now and have nothing to show for it.
Non difference maker with the second most wins since coming into the league. Yeah he sucks

Yeah I got to watch the games though and I don’t make a lazy statement like he has won the most games when he was playing in a way that was conservative.

If you want to be lazy and generalize and brag about stats that were padded against the worst teams in football then go ahead..

4 years and Dak has 1 playoff win.

So he’s one away from Romo in a quarter of the time. Cool.

Yeah but Romo is a superior player and lifted the team while Dak just tries not to lose games for the team and can’t elevate guys around him.

Not if you believe Dak is your quarterback. The Cowboys supposedly will make him the highest paid player in the NFL. Dak is 27, Tua will not be needed. Especially if he is damaged goods. That hip injury is frightening.
Do they believe that? We've been hearing for a long time they are soooo close on a contract yet nothing has happened. Maybe they are waiting until after the draft to see what happens...

Former GM and NFL analyst Michael Lombardi says two teams have told him that Tua Tagovailoa failed their pre-draft physicals, Hal Habib of the Palm Beach Post reports.

In what could either be prophetic or a smokescreen, former NFL general manager Michael Lombardi said on his podcast that two teams have flunked former Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in their pre-draft physicals.


Cooper Rush said it's a false rumor

Like I said before if Tua is there at 17. This board will explode. I actually want it to happen. This Coronavirus has me sitting at home bored. :D:eek::omg:

Ouch this is kind of not what you want to hear when you draft your QB.

“And he’s brittle,” Lombardi continued. “You can’t deny it. You can’t deny it.”

More from the Article:

Beyond his well chronicled hip injury.


Here are the previously reported and undisputed injuries, according to Forbes:

— Broken left index finger (March 2018; no games missed)

— Sprained right knee (October 2018; no games missed)

— Left high ankle sprain (December 2018; surgery; no games missed)

— Right high ankle sprain (October 2019; surgery; 1 game missed)

— Dislocated right hip with posterior acetabular wall fracture (November 2019; surgery; missed final 3.5 games)

But Mike Lombardi, who worked for the San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots front offices and is plugged in among some scouts and personnel departments, recently unloaded on Tagovailoa’s injury history and reported previously unknown information about multiple broken wrists.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nf...injury-failed-physical/ar-BB12m0Df?li=BBnbfcL
And yet with all of these injuries proving Tua is one very brittle over-rated QB, many here want him?

Unbelievable.

What has Romo won again? Nothing? You are correct.
