Joe Milton to Eagles Active Roster

[kskboys]

He beat the Buffalo Bills, while playing in New England, the kid has talent, he just needs to be a little bit more intelligent about it

You're basing this on one game? Why didn't Clint Longley make it?

There have been a myriad of one/two game wonders over the years. Not anywhere near enough data to come to a conclusion.

Milton has trouble w/ the playbook. As long as he can dump off passes or throw to his first read he can play. However, that's not often the case against real NFL D's.

I think its an ego/approach thing with Milton. I remember hearing rumblings.

I could be a thousand percent wrong, but am searching for answers. Not to say he was all world, but the logic still confuses me. We traded a pick to develop a guy, who actually appeared to be developing, only to let him go regardless.

Im not saying this is a huge loss. I just don't understand what we were doing with Milton in general. If it is about intangibles, ego and such it would help to explain how little he appears to be valued in general.

This stupidity will come to haunt the Cowboys. Milton will be all world now.

This stupidity will come to haunt the Cowboys. Milton will be all world now.

Im not necessarily claiming its a huge loss.

I just dont understand the thought process. You traded for him to develop him. He showed signs of development this preseason. So then you let him walk?

Yea, but look at the good news, Andy Dalton remains available, and we won't have to pay him much or give up anything for him. What a steal!

Milton is a perfect fit there. He cannot pass with my cinsistency, but he can run with the best of them.

For better or worse, I said just last week that the cowboys should try and trade Dak and let Milton finish out the year to see what they got... Either I'll be proven to be an idiot, or a great Qb evaluator... If Milton does shine somewhere else, I'm gonna be livid, but happy for Joe...
