Here are the front-runners to land Romo in NFL's QB shuffle

[Idgit]

He's not going to Arizona:

That stuff doesn't mean anything this time of year. And they're not at really good shape at QB anyway.

He's not going to Arizona:

Bruce probably got the reassurance from Palmer that he is coming back in 2017. Hence why the report that Palmer will announce his intentions to return next season very soon.

Bills would be a great spot for him, their O-line may be better than Dallas right now.

According to the article Romo has a $14M salary next season. He's due $19M in year two and $20.5M in year three, you don't call that a big contract? You claimed any team that would trade for Romo would work out a 2 or 3 year contract. You went on to say it would "probably" lower the salaries in exchange for guaranteed cash. How do you know all this will happen and a team can make all of it happen? How about providing a link that's discussing all the possibilities and all they'll be are "possibilities."

You quoted my post when I discussed Romo's contact. Did you read it?

How much guaranteed money is Romo owed? Are you new to evaluating nfl contacts?

 

[Toruk_Makto]

And what he left off here is there is no guaranteed money left on the deal.

I read what you posted and you're making assumptions. Romo is still going to demand starting money and a team is still going to have to fit him under their cap. He's not going to risk his health for peanuts and if a team wants his services money will play a factor. If he continues to play he's risking his quality of life after football and he's not going to do it for cheap. There's going to be more than one team competing for his services if he's released and money and cap space will factor into the decision for whoever signs him.

Don't come off like you're some expert because you're not. Regardless if he's not owned any guaranteed money unless you know everyones cap situation and what players they need to sign, you have no idea what any of the teams that may be interested need to do to get Romo signed.

Exactly, and the fact it isn't guaranteed effectively makes it a series of one year deals because the new team could cut him after any season with no cap hit.

He described it perfectly.....you are the lost one....TM doesn't get numbers wrong, just draft picks

The contract has 0 guaranteed money and the 2018-19 salaries were always just placeholders.....DAL was never going to pay him that much, let alone a new team

Romo will work out a new deal 3 year deal with 15-25m guaranteed for 36-45m total
His cap hit for 2017 can be as low as 6m for the new team....... 1m base and 5m signing bonus

You're just another one who thinks they got it all figured out, no wonder TM has you under his spell. Both of you are just following along with what you're reading on online or hearing from reports.

I never agree with TM but this is common sense

Romo doesn't throw practice pass one without 14-20m guaranteed.... to get that he has to bring down the base on Years 2-3

That has nothing to do with common sense you're just following along with what's been reported. If you had any common sense you wouldn't have denied that the ball touched the ground on Dez's no catch and I wouldn't have had to show you a picture of the ball on the ground. lol

Cop out for being wrong again but you have lost that Dez argument to everyone that you have faced so you are good at it

You're the one who's always wrong, from Hardy being back to the ball never touched the ground with Dez. Hopefully the reports you're listening to are right about this.

Hard to resist bringing up the Dez play when you're talking about all it takes is common with this topic when there's different reports swirling around. Common sense would have told you that when Dez reached for the goal line with one hand slamming the ball on the turf causing it to bounce up that it touched the ground. You didn't need to see the pic I showed you of the ball on the ground to be able to tell from all the video replays that it hit the ground. As for this topic the reports I'm hearing are that the Cowboys are going to try and trade Romo and for him to end up in Denver or Houston he's going to have to take a big pay cut so money is going to be an issue with some teams. One report says he's considering retirement so for him to risk himself it's going to take some pretty good guaranteed money which is going to be very risky with his injury history. One solid hit and some team could be eating a lot of money.

Not on that deal but do you honestly believe Romo will sign with another team with no guaranteed money?

Buncha middle school girls in this thread arguing and cat fighting. Stay on topic ya clowns.

The Cowboys will listen to offers for Tony Romo, sources said, once owner Jerry Jones has his meeting with the Pro Bowl quarterback. Romo prefers to be moved to a contending team -- specifically, the Texans, Cardinals, Broncos and Chiefs. The Bills also have significant interest in Romo, team and league sources said, though they realize that it might be a tough sell. The Bills have not given up hope on retaining Tyrod Taylor on a lesser contract, too, though that may be wishful thinking on their part at this point.

Romo's market will be robust as well. The Chiefs have to make a determination on whether he, or any other option, would give them a better opportunity to win a Super Bowl than Alex Smith does. Smith has already played out the guaranteed portion of his contract. If so, Smith would be a trade-worthy commodity as well. While some reported the Cowboys may just let Romo walk, the demand for him should be such that Jerry Jones gets a strong return on his investment. Some GMs opined that the Cowboys would get a second-round pick, plus potentially another high pick based on Romo's playing time (injuries have dogged him in recent years).

A SECOND-ROUND PICK?????
I AM OVER THE MOON, RUFFIANS!

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

i think in the end tony ends up with the Texans that team is really ready to take the next step with a veteran qb

A new team, new scheme, new city, an aged and fragile QB.
What could possibly go wrong?
Yes, please, a 2-round for Romo and I am happy, mates!
