Romo to have "significant say" in where he goes

[Bleu Star]

Suddenly people believe the press. For the last decade the vitriol has gone from bad to worse about reports by the press. Now you see this blurb and immediately these guys are spewing burning bush information?

The results of this season will weigh heavy on what next year will bring.

My Opinion:

Miss the play-offs - - Romo will have played some games in 2016
Dak makes the play-offs but lost first game - - Open competition in 2017
Dak makes the NFC Championship game - - Dak goes in as starter for 2017, but may be in a competition by the end of training camp
Romo takes over for a foundering Dak and takes team to the play-offs - - open competition in 2017
Romo gets to the NFC Championship game after taking over - - Romo will be named starter in off-season, but will be a quiet competition
Romo gets to the Super Bowl and loses - Romo is the starter in 2017
Romo wins the Super Bowl - starter in 2017

Dak wins the Super Bowl - Romo traded

I believe Jerry's love for Romo, and his understanding he can fade one more year of this will cause Romo to be here.

However, if someone comes a calling after the 2017 season starts and this is still up in the air, and they offer a 1, then Jerry will be hard pressed to pass that up.

But there is too much football left for this decision to be made. And Rappaport's comments are far more speculation by someone on the fringe that Rappaport talked to and not one of the main players in this drama.

In other words his comments can be dried and used to fertilize roses.

Nothing to see here ladies.

Lmao. Still clinging to that last thread of Romo hope I see. It's over sir.

But it sure is nice to have him in the pocket this year just in case Dak gets hurt (which I don't see happening).

Imagine the level of conviction in Romo's eyes if he had to come in to try and save the day down the stretch (while also auditioning for his next team).

All of this is true..but Buffalo won't be a contender w Romo..playoff team..but they can't win it all

Romo is going to have to be able to survive a season to win a championship...of course you can mitigate the risk involved but you can't hide him

Denver gives him the best chance..heck, they're amongst the best teams in the afc now and they have crap at qb

That is why I don't believe we will get much at all for him in trade.

Romo isn't going anywhere. He will compete with Dak for the starting job next preseason. Or at least that is what I read here.

LMBO

I'll be in my driveway doing push ups while the dreamers continue to dream.

Romo would have to be insane to want to go anywhere else. He's one play away from being on the field and in a system that he understands with one of the best run games and OL in the league, He's got one foot in the playoff door and it's getting to be a bigger foot every week, why would he want to go anywhere else?

31 other "backups" are one play away from being on the field too. Romo wants to start. He's as good as gone.

If Tony leaves, I will wish him the best no matter where he goes.

Yep. Same here... It's been real.

 

[Bleu Star]

I still think Tony ends up getting released. Only a desperate team would trade a high pick for him knowing he's likely to be released anyway. Also, it could be easily argued that, unless we get a high pick, releasing him is more beneficial to the team anyway, as the cap savings for next season would be higher than if he was traded.


There would be dead money, but the overall cap savings for releasing him are still pretty massive.

Given his inability to last 16 games, I would say you're not too far off with your thinking.

Football is a business, there are no good guys. If Jerry can get a 1st do you realy think he will trade Romo for a 4th or release him just because he wants to go to a particular team?

Football is a business. But not a short sighted one.

Treat a guy like Romo right and it tells vets something important. Hang on to him when he wants to move on and it also tells guys something.

This is about more than a pick. It is about how free agents see the organization.

Seeing Romo in another jersey will be like seeing Smith wearing a cards uniform.
