From Broaddus....

Hearing some whispers from those in the know that through two days of OTAs – Jameill Showers has been the second-best quarterback on the field. In watching him during practice, I thought his accuracy and poise were outstanding in the opportunities he received.

What does it really take to beat out Kellen Moore? Surprised this is a story

Wasn't there some chatter about this very thing around here last week?

lol, he's shining in OTA's? Fantastic.

My first thought. And I was not impressed with Showers last year, either and don't expect him to necessarily even stay a QB. But I'd be *thrilled* if we were to have somehow hit on a backup capable of beating out even Moore from our own PS.

No way Dak would be standing out at this point. Is Tomorrow even throwing much? Vets don't need much OTA work to be ready.

FWIW, Drew Boylhart (The Huddle Report) absolutely loved Showers last year. Rated him a 1st round talent, if I remember correctly. Absolutely gushed about him, stating he wouldn't hesitate to use a 1st rd pick on him and develop him. After reading his report, I was thrilled that Dallas was able to sign him, and then stunned that he didn't make the roster. Glad to see he's starting to show some of the potential that Drew saw in him.

Even more ridiculous.
