Speculating on Tony Romo's trade value **merged**

[Trouty]

Go find a "current" QB ranking that doesn't have most of those QBs ranked ahead of Romo.

I already told you what I thought of your vaunted media QB rankings.

 

[KJJ]

Are you kidding me? Cowboy fans are equally as hard on the team as outside media.

Sure Cowboys "fans" are but boards like this are saturated with Cowboy FANS.

How bad would cutting him wreck our cap?

Romo cap hit for 2017:

Keep: 24M

Cut: 19M

 

[Trouty]

How can he be underrated with a 2-4 playoff record? The Cowboys have only made the playoffs 4 times in his 10 years as the starter and he's never gotten the team past the second round of the playoffs. I'm certainly not putting all the blame on him but QBs are judged by how they perform in the postseason and by their postseason record.

Here we go. @Gabe says "ola"

They get paid to talk football and give their opinions on the game, do you?

Don't lump me in with Gabe who said Sanchez is better than Romo ever was. lol

Huh? You're telling me those folk that rank QB's are your end-all be-all? You a follower, KJJ, or do you have a mind of your own?

Fair enough, happy you saw that idiotic thread. But my point stands, he always resorts to that thoughtless narrative.

 

[xwalker]

Not if they declare him a June 1st cut............19m vs 11m

But they aren't cutting him.......not when they can get a 1st round pick for him

This is the post that I replied to.

The point being that giving another team a pick to take him would not help the Cowboys cap.

I'd give a team a 1st to take his contract off our hands.

I'm giving you my opinion and the opinion of those who get paid to talk football. I can't help it if they agree with me. lol How can you "currently" rank a QB in the top 15 who's missed 16 games over the past 2 seasons and the 4 games they played in they had 8 turnovers compared to 5 TD's and their passer rating was 79.4? That was a career low passer rating for Romo. Some of you need to stop living in the past.

He's thoughtless but I put a lot of thought into my comments. I give my own opinions and most are based on facts.

Because the numbers you cite are from a season marred in injury and inconsistency. Let's give the dude a chance to see what he does with consistent playing time (god willing, he gets it).

Citing stats from last season is lazy and speaks of an agenda. No reasonable fan would hold Romo to what he did last year. C'mon, KJJ. Use all that energy you have for better causes.

The QB rankings are based on how a QB is currently playing regardless of injuries. If a QB isn't playing well due to an injury or rust it will hurt their ranking. Dez's stock dropped after last season because he didn't produce. No one cares that he was hurt, he didn't play well and he hasn't played that great this season.

Yep, your right there with Skip Bayless (He get's paid to talk football).

Lol! X, even tho I love Skip, that was good, mang!

Take the challenge and see if you can find a "current" QB ranking that has Romo in the top 15. The rankings are based on what a QB has done lately.

Let's not compare Dez to Romo, KJJ

They both had injuries that had an affect on their play and it's hurt their position ranking. That's the comparison I'm making.

Romo's never graded fairly on your position rankings, in aggregate (i.e. by most folks). Ever. So a comparison to Dez does nothing for me (not to mention a long career of achievements and sustained level of greatness for one vs. the other -- no disrespect to our warrior, Dez)
