Thats ok dak never get hurt lol.

Grier is just as good as Rush or better.

He rarely gets off the practice squad. This is his seventh stop, six different teams, the Cowboys twice. He will not be on the Cowboys’ 48 man game day roster sans an injury to Dak or the team’s yet to be determined QB2.

 

[Tabascocat]

Odd choice to backup Lamar, Lance would make more sense even though he isn’t good.

 

[Chasing6]

This might be the first ever 2nd round comp pick!

I don't think we can comp picks from CFL.

 

[4lifecowboy]

My first thought. I'd think Lance would have more of a chance to be Jackson's backup

My thoughts as well

 

[DandyDon52]

I thought that was gonna happen anyway but I wonder do they still want Lance….

they already said they are going to draft a qb, and he will probably be the bkup.
low round rookie qb is cheap.

 

[GMO415]

Congratulations. He earned it

 

[gtb1943]

Did you even watch the Eagles game where he threw for 44 yards?

Yeah, Dak looked almost as bad.

 

[Hoofbite]

He has a ceiling. We are talking about a backup and to be honest with you all these guys suck in this draft I’d hate to draft someone and be tied to them I’d rather do it next year.

Nobody is tied to a late round pick

Personally I don't have a problem moving on from Cooper Rush. He had really good moments as a backup QB. But face it, he was never going to be a threat to Dak Prescott. Rush's games against the Eagles showed me that! I want a young QB that's going to put some pressure on Dak. Not saying Trey Lance is or was that. But suppose lance is done in Dallas. For the money spent on either Rush or Lance, there seem to be plenty of FA QBs available that can had for the money spent on backup QBs last season.

 

[Havic]

I agree I watched Will Grier a lot when he played for West Virginia ,he has some duel threat in his game.He has a much better arm than Rush too.

Yes, but If I remember correctly he made worse decisions than Rush his last stint here.

 

[panchucko]

we will trade a 4th for him after Dak gets hurt

 

[sacase]

Lance is terrible. Rush was a no brainer signing but we messed that up as usual

 

[Beast_from_East]

The return of Trey is imminent.
Melt downs galore.

Trey is not coming back, they even refused to play him in garbage games at the end of the season.

The other reason is Jerry will never admit he made a mistake and Trey playing well if Dak can’t go would make Jerry look like an idiot for giving him that mega contract.

Jerry would rather lose games than look like an idiot. Besides, if Trey was being groomed Steven would not be talking about looking at the draft for a young guy.

I’m glad Rush is with the Ravens.
Now let’s see if he will stick this time, because he didn’t stick with the giants and no other teams wanted to sign him, let’s see

 

[Beast_from_East]

I think Lance fits our new run scheme now. Look at how the Cardinals used Murray...they would bring in 12 and 13 personnel to pound the ball forcing defenses to load the box, then they'd use play action off of those sets to run Murray out the back door.
Lance would give the Cowboys that extra dimension that Dak doesn't possess.

If our scheme is designed for somebody other than our $60 million dollar QB, then we are screwed.

And no, Lance nor anybody else is being groomed, they just restructured Dak’s mega contract making it even more impossible to move on from him.

Dak is going to be here for multiple years into the future, doesn’t really matter how good or bad he plays, the contract dictates he is the starter no matter what.

And for the record, I was against giving Dak that deal and especially against restructuring it.

 

[75boyz]

Not gonna lie I liked Coop but did get frustrated with his arm limitations at times.

But overall though, he was a good player who did his job well based on his opportunities.
He played a big part in saving the team's whole season a couple years back too.

Good Luck to ya Coop!

 

[CowboysFever1973]

I’ll miss this guy

 

[big dog cowboy]

How did the Cowboys mess that up?

 

[Coogiguy03]

How did the Cowboys mess that up?

maybe we should have spent big and gave him 20 million a year as the backup! Who knows big
