Mort: Cowboys expect to trade Romo to Texans or Broncos ***MERGE***

[Carson]

How much cap do we get back for trading Romo?

 

[sureletsrace]

Cleveland just did Dallas a huge favor. Now its officially a bidding war between Denver and Houston. Denver was talking tough about not trading for Romo because they thought Texans never had the cap space. Well now they do. I'm more optimistic in landing a 4th round pick now .

This!

 

[Toruk_Makto]

So at the very least I guess we know we're not getting Houston's 2nd round pick.

It's their 2018 2nd rounder.....THIS GUN BE GUD

 

[Sydla]

It's actually a good move for them. They have a crap load of cap room and get him off the books next year if they want to. Push the5 get another top 50 pick

Yep.

They have the cap room for a few years to absorb Osweiler and they get a premium pick in 2018 to make it happen.

Great trade for Cleveland.

They'll get more than a 4th.

Devil's advocate....maybe Houston knows Jerry will just release Romo anyway. Do we believe Jerry would play hardball here? Just asking....

 

[Gameover]

I smell a bidding war

I smell Tony is a Texan

Hopefully for that 25th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[CATCH17]

Houston gave up a 2nd to move his contract..i smell a 1 and maybe more. They cannot come up empty.

I doubt it but I never thought I would see a team give up draft picks just to take away their player.

 

[DK30]

I tell both teams whoever gives up a first first, gets Romo. No messing around.

Romo will likely sign with Denver if he is released

Leave both the broncos and Texans in the lurch and trade Romo to the Niners

 

[Sydla]

Cleveland might actually have a competent GM.

They can't take that risk with Elway lurking

 

[LittleD]

Jerry is totally drunk with glee. He now has a bidding war. Teams are having to clean
the decks to make the deal of the century. Other teams may come calling. It could be
picks and players now to get the QB promised land.

 

[Trouty]

Not liking that HOU gave up their second. That would've been the pick I assume we would have gotten (shooting high). No way a first. Maybe a third?

Edit -- never mind, 2018 second!

 

[revospeed]

What did the Texans get for Brock? #12 overall?

Can they take that chance tho? That's the question.

I'm hoping...

But it's a 2018 second rounder. They also got a 2017 4th rounder in return.

So still plenty to play with.
