it was probably a very long shot anyway, but the pipe dream of getting something from New Orleans for Romo is gone now IMO


Saints | Team lands J. Martin

Jim Thomas, of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, reports the New Orleans Saints have signed free agent QB Jamie Martin (Rams) to a two-year contract. Financial terms were not released.

Now some of you will have to consider other reasons why he was kept home and Henson the unimpressive boy wonder was sent packing. I thought this was a "lock", "booked"... But wait, watch the amnesia begin and the new reasons fly. ;) Probably wasn't worth sending to NFLe like Henson, right......

So in reality, looks like Romo was never demoted down.. Looks as if he's still our undisputed #2 behind Bledsoe.. And come to think of it, I've never heard Parcells, our head coach, state any thing to the contrary.

Meanwhile, Henson to Zuriel Smith in NFLe!!!!! :rolleyes: Oh yea, and, over in Ameica, here, home of America's Team, Romo to Owens, in practice.

I can hear Owens already if he's ever punished into working with Henson...
"I'm over here, not down on the ground, you idget!"
"Is that ball coming from your hand or out the side of your a__?!"
"I quit! No f______ way am I working with someone who went to NFLe unless their name is Kurt Warner, AND even that ain't happening in the last 5 years!"
"Should I learn to swear in German you **** neverwas- go back and play peewee! I can't believe I'm being suffered like this!"
"ROMO! ROMO!! ROMO!!! WHERE IS ROMO!!!!! I can't work with this incompetant anymore, where is ROMO!!!!!"

But seriously, it could be comical if those two are ever forced to work together. Not saying that Owens and Romo would be anymore successful, but it won't be nearly as funny hearing the stories. Atleast as we speak a possible relationship is being formed between Romo and Owens. And especially with us bringing in a player like Owens, it's rather suspicious that we would want to send our "supposed" future away, when noway it could be as beneficial as working with the absolute best WR in the game. Think Irvin when Sanders was signed, instead of continuing on with is own training, he used Sanders to better his game in practice. Henson is over in Europe reading about TO becoming a Cowboy, lol, it doesn't get much better then that. To the rescue, boy wonder, to the rescue!

Thank you, I think we're all a little dumber for taking the time to read that.

Not sure if this is a repost, but I just read on ESPN that the Saints signed Jamie Martin to backup Brees. With the signing, it appears the possible trade for Romo isn't going to happen.

There has been speculation of making a trade with the Saints and drafting a QB in a mid-round. So the question is, how does this affect the QBs on the roster now? If the Boys still take someone like Whitehurst, Croyle, etc., who is more than likely off the roster?

Romo has two years left on his contract. Henson is showing flashes of brilliance in NFLE, but he hasn't done it on the field on Sunday's and BP still has questions about him. When BP retires after this year, Bledsoe is probably going to be on the market, too. Do we draft someone to groom for the next year or two or hope one of the two backups on the roster is finally "going to get it?"

I didn't want to have to break this out, but....

Zippy Speedster, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

This is Romo's last year on his contract...

I think this means that we will not draft a QB in the mid rounds. All of the Whitehurst and other mid round QB talk came mostly in the week after Henson's first game in Europe when he looked terrible. He has since looked much better and all the QB talk has died down. With the Saints signing a QB it lessens the probability of us making the trade with them but does not eliminate the idea altogether. We will have to see on draft day which is when such a deal will likely go down.

I think with Henson's seeming emergence in Europe and with Romo looking solid we will stand pat at QB this year and maybe take a guy like the kid from Yale and put him on the Practice Squad for a year. Then we have him move into the #3 spot when Bledsoe leaves and Henson and Romo are battling for a starting job.

BTW I think that this is the last year of Romo's contract. He signed a two year deal before last season and should only have one year left on it this year. So the Saints may just be waiting for him to become a FA next year unless we give him an extension.

My bad. I knew he didn't have more than two years. Thanks for the correction.

Does that make drafting a QB even more important?

Obviously, a Henson hater.. He's in NFLe to get game experience. How would throwing routes to TO help him gain that experience?

Agree with SuperPunk on this one, right amount of points awarded unless you can go negative...

Thats kinda funny seeing as how the training camp competition hasnt started yet. Where did Parcells say Romo was the "undisputed #2"? Hell where has Parcells said anything about anything?
