Speculation: Possible Shocker by Garrett

[Fletch]

There is a possibility that Garrett pisses off a lot of people come draft time. Now I'm not talking 1st two rounds, but maaaaybe the 3rd and definitely beyond.

I'm talking about Garrett selecting a QB. Yeah we've heard rumors about the kid Foles from Arizona. But what about the kid from AZ State? Merely speculation on my part, but I have a feeling Garrett is going to try and find a QB between the 4th and 5th round to groom under Tony for at least a few seasons.

I think the McGee experiment is coming to a close, at least after this year. So why not try and find the next Brady, or even Romo? But it will cost us a draft pick.

I've been fairly lucky at guessing picks here and there, and I think Garrett and Jerry are going to pull the trigger on a QB at some point. Some fans won't mind, and some fans will pull their hair out. None-the-less, it's going to happen!

Not sure why that would piss anyone off. Spending a 3rd or 4th on a QB is a pretty smart move if you think the value is high.

There were rumors last year that they would pick Andy Dalton if he fell to them in the 2nd, so it wouldn't surprise me if they looked into it. I feel it's more of an indictment of Stephen McGee than Romo, though.

its been speculated they might take Patrick Witt from Yale. Goose wrote article about it back in feb. Here is link: http://cowboysblog.***BANNED-URL***/archives/2012/02/gosselin-wylies-patrick-witt-c.html

I would rather JG be pro active and find one a couple of years early than a couple of years late

I actually really see us going after Patrick Witt in like 6-7... the fit is perfect. He is an ivy league guy like Garrett. He was even a Rhodes scholar candidate. He has a big arm and can make all the throws, comes from a pro style offense, has prototypical size (6'4" 225), is very much like Romo , in that he doesn't have blazing speed, but is very aware inside the pocket. He feels the pressure, avoids sacks, and can extend plays with his feet. He struggled at times with forcing plays, but that could be him trying to overcome the mediocre talent around him.

Wow beat me to it as I was typing! Jerk haha

I wouldn't mind, I only see Romo here for another 3-4 years if he can survive.

I don't think it has anything to do with an indictment of McGee or Romo. It has merely to do with staying on the up and up with the most important position on the field. We need to know we have someone who can take over when Romo is done.

We need to have a very smooth transition after the Romo era. I for one am all for trying to find a future replacement, now.

That's what I'm seeing as well.

You should mind anything higher than a 4 because rookie contracts are only 4 years now... Romo will be here at least 3 more and I'd guess 4... which would make him 35 on the rookies last year under contract... that's not a great situation.

If any ones mad about that they need their head examined. Just look at the after Troy years.

I start losing interest somewhere in the third, and by the fourth round, it's only hard core junkies left. By then it's all a crap shoot. So, rather than piss people off, I'd think most wouldn't even notice.

 

[tomson75]

I'd be all for it.

I couldn't disagree more. That is how people should feel, but they'll rip the cowboys for failed 7th... just because. Guess how many 7ths do anything, not many, but because we drafted them if they don't work out people flip.

 

[rkell87]

i think that comp 4th rounder is a perfect spot to take a shot at QB

 

[Lawdog]

Mad? I'd be thrilled. I've said for years that every team should draft a developmental QB every few years. Worst case scenario, you bust on a 4th or 5th rounder every few years which we're already fairly proficient at doing. Best case scenario, you find a Tom Brady. And somewhere in between you find a decent backup or some trade bait.

Witt a rapist?

Nothing wrong with taking a QB in the draft at some point. Beyond Luck and RG3 I dont see any of them making an impact for a while. Next year looks better for QBs in the draft.
