All of this talk about taking a QB at four and now even talk about trading up for one has me considering the following.
Under what circumstance would I consider taking a QB at 4 or worse trading up for one.
This is what I have come up with and it makes a little sense.
What if we Traded Romo and Witten to the Broncos? They need a QB and rode the broken down neck of Manning to a SB. Romo and Witten would have a shot at a couple of super bowl rings.
Denver would have to clear some cap room.
Von Miller, Talib and Ward have salaries that are pretty close to Romo and Witten. The cap swap would be close. Over 29 mil for both teams. We would have to figure out a way to sign Miller to a longer contract. Maybe make the deal contingent on doing so. Miller would also have to switch positions from 3-4 outside LB to a DE but heck we need one bad and he could do it. Talib would allow us to cut Carr. Ward would allow us to cut Church. We would be sitting pretty under the cap.
Then we can draft the QB everyone seems to want and not have a 6 mil a year clipboard holder. A young QB to grow with our young O-lineman. We would have to grab a TE as well but we would have filled 3 big holes and opened up a spot for a young QB
MOCK

2. Hunter Henry TE
3. Tyler Boyd WR
4. Paul Perkins RB
4 comp Javon Hargreave DT
QB Wentz/Goff Moore Showers
RB Mcfadden, Morris, Perkins, Dunbar
WR Dez, Boyd, Williams, Beasley, Butler, Lucky
OT Tron, Free, Chaz Green, Charles Brown
OG Martin, Collins Leary, Looney
C Fred, Looney
TE Hunter Henry, Hanna, Escobar, Swaim
DE Von Miller, Lawrence, Gregory, Mayowa, Irving, Jack Crawford
DT Crawford, Thornton, Mcclain Hargreave, Ryan Russell
LBS Lee, Mcclain, Wilber, Hitchins, Damien Wilson, Gachkar, Nzeocha
S Byron Jones, Tj Ward, JJ Wilcox, Heath
CB Talib, Scandrick, Claiborne, Mitchell, Olatoye

Sounds crazy right? No more crazy then drafting a qb at 4 when you already have one counting over 20 mil a year against the cap and who everyone believes will be here 3 or 4 more years.
I would do this deal and if the QB was legit we could be winning super bowls in a couple of years and this would be a very good, young team.
Would Denver do it? They would have 3 holes to fill but would fill two big ones and Romo could give them a real shot at winning it all over rhe next 2 or 3 years if he can stay healthy.
