If they can't get what they want for him in a trade they need to keep him.

There is a possibility that Dak regresses and turns out be a dud. Remote.

There is a possibility that a team loses their starting QB due to injury like the Vikings did and have to make a desperation trade to salvage their season. Unlikely but entirely possible.

The cap savings are minuscule aren't they? If so it doesn't hurt having two probowl QBs on the roster.

Correct me if I'm wrong about the cap savings.

Jerry doesn't sound like a guy ready to let Romo leave town.
Would they sit Dak down next season and let Romo play?


FRISCO, Texas -- "There's several cards to be played," Jones said Tuesday on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. "Don't think for one minute if you see something written or something said about what and where Romo is going to be relative to our team that there's any credibility to it. There's only one that can make that decision, and there's been no decision made."

Jones reiterated his belief that Romo, 36, will play in a Super Bowl if he can remain healthy.

"Now try that one on and see the consequences for us," Jones said.

Jones acknowledged that how Romo handled the transfer of power, so to speak, to rookie Dak Prescott played a key role in the Cowboys' success.

"There's no question he let our coaches, he let his coordinator, he let his head coach, let me completely off the hook by the way he handled the situation," Jones said. "He did everything in his power to help this team go to the Super Bowl. And you couldn't have asked for more from him. And, yes, he stood ready to step in there and potentially have the kind of game that you saw the other quarterback, Rodgers, play out there Sunday.

This is a bluff from the Cowboys to make it seem like they're not trading Romo only to raise his price. Jerry is a salesman and a business man. Plus, it keeps us in the headlines.

Appreciate you Tony, good luck. Hope you retire and stay on with the Cowboys in some capacity. GM would be great, draft, trade and sign defensive players.

Don't know if its possible, but player coach with a restructured deal that doesn't count towards cap as much.

Otherwise a trade for an impact D player from another team would be very interesting. I hate to see him go, but this is about the future now and greats such as Emmitt, Ware, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice all went on to other teams before they called it quits so Tony
moving on would not be out of the ordinary.

Don't the Jets have a couple of DL that they wanted to trade at the deadline?

This is just BS to try to drive up his trade value.

No way is Romo going to be on this team, if he is Jerry is a total moron.

If romo wanted to be a backup I'd be worth it but he doesnt. Either way Dallas will have a 19 mil cap hit. Won't find a backup better than romo for basically 5 mil.

Romo is way too valuable to spend another year on any bench......he can turn a pretender into a contender overnight..............and it will only cost a top pick, maybe in 2018

Imagine if Romo was on SEA after the 2015 season as RWilson's backup
Do you think DAL would trade their 2nd in 2016 or their 1st in 2017 for him... I do

No one is giving a Top 10 pick but a late 1st or an early 2nd is the fair cost
I hope you are correct!
