Source Wars: Manziel NOT #1 QB on Cowboys Board; Bortles is

[IAmLegend]

Neither will be a Cowboy so the point is moot. Hurry up and start already, Draft.

Just like Jerry, many are fascinated with the QB position. Flash over substance. With a good defensive line / offensive line draft, this team could make a run this year and next. Drafting a QB in the first round this year would end that chance.

I think we are looking at QB cause If Romo is done we have nobody capable of leading the team. I want defense as well but if Romo back keeps him from playing then yes QB has to be to need

I would really hope that nobody in the media has any information on the Cowboys' draft board.

So the Hall of Famers Staubach and Aikman are coaches now? Awesome, when did they get hired? It would kind of suck if he was only going to get coached by schlubs Garrett and Wilson along with coordinator Linehan.

Who said that the Cowboys are looking at QB? Only fans and idiot media types from what I've seen. No one from the Cowboy leadership has. And of course, they won't even if it's true.

You get a like for such insight!

I completely agree!!!!!!!!

I was kind of hoping the same thing!

You mean like this chatty scouting consultant?

THIS!

With Jerry, it could be either. Misinformation or he just can't help himself and lets the cat out of the bag.

Even though I'm a Romo supporter, I believe he might soon be done. I also believe in JF, so I'd be happy if we drafted him.

Was it McShay that knew Romo wouldn't play the last game of the year? Or someone else?

I think Mortenson. I don't think McShay really starts showing up on ESPN until around the Super Bowl in prep. for college all star games and senior bowl.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Garrett can't even manage the clock and he is going to coach up Bortles?

LMAO

 

[KB1122]

No, it was Schefter. That's who I'm thinking of.

"We've had more than one person in the league tell us that Manziel is believed to be the No. 1 player on the Cowboys' board," McShay wrote, "and it wouldn't surprise us if they took him here if he's still available."

Honestly, just for the sheer spectacle of it, I WANT Manziel to be there at 16 so there can be no conjecture....and hopefully at least 1 or 2 of the Barr, Donald, Martin and Beckham group.

 

[daveferr33]

I personally don't think this team is targeting Manziel.

However, I can think of no tweeters more willing to spread the FOs smokescreens than Fisher, Archer and Birddog.

I agree. And I seriously doubt it. I just can't see scouts whose job it is to find the right players for Dallas giving information to guides like Mayock, Kiper and McShay.
I think the discussions any of those draft experts have with people inside the organization is based on general information, i.e., who do you have as your top quarterbacks, who do you have as your top linemen, etc. If that person were available, would you take him?

From that, they draw conclusions. And I think the people inside feed them misinformation. Or, I think what happens is that teams are talking to other teams and other teams tell the draft experts who the other team is looking at taking. I say this because Bill Polian was on Mike and Mike, and he said teams are pretty much calling and setting up possible trades and, if they do, they want to make sure the guy they want is available. So they filter out who the other teams might want without actually asking them directly.

It's against the best interest of anyone in the Dallas camps to share confidential and classified information about who they're going to take.

Again, it really doesn't make sense to me unless you're trying to mislead outsiders on your real intentions.

I noticed that too.
