Trey Lance: Bad trades for SF and Dallas?

[DuncanIso]

I think Lance has potential considering his physical football playing attributes. Some talented inexperienced quarterbacks just need more coaching and reps than others to become a quality starter. The 9rs did not want to lose their winning momentum with Project Lance and the Cowboys overcommitted on Dak contractually.

he's extremely athletic. has a big arm. there's a ton of video on the kid.

We got lucky. He broke his leg.

Dak is QB1, for now.

The next move for Lance would be QB2.

But he needs a new contract first.

The best think that could happen to Lance is KMoore.

How many NFL players are not “extremely athletic”?

Trance left SF because he did not want to be QB 3. 2 years later he is QB3 in Dallas and is still not playing after Dak is out for the year.

If Dallas had any future interest in Trance, 1 they would not have extended Dak, 2 he would be playing now.

Trance is done in Dallas.

I was all for giving Lance a shot, but it amazes me that a few wont let the Lance dream die. Unless there is zero market and they can stash him on the PS next year there is no room in Dallas for the guy.

If you are worried about that 4th...man oh boy. The chanes of it making any significant impact...in comparison to the rest of our problems?

I'd sure love see him get a game or two. Maybe Jerry is "saving" him along side zeke.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Can Jerry and all the Trance supporters go follow another team???

Sheesh. Total BUST and wasted trade!

Who are the Lance supporters?

Shouldn't any Cowboys fan be one?

What has Lance done for the Cowboys? Why should any fan support such a wasted trade?

Because he's on our team.

But well never mind. Good thing is you don't have any say how people want to fan.

 

[loublue22]

Lance should be playing now, including tonight.

I would rather support Will Grier since he gives the team a better chance to win than Trey Lance could. Don't get me wrong, if Lance is put in to play, I will support him, but I don't have to like everything Jerry cost us to get him.

Both had 2nd round grades. Cowboys got them for a 4th. On paper seems like a good deal.

I wish the Cowboys had more time with Lance. Mingo should be in a much better position to contribute next year.

Everyone gets a 2nd round grade for the Dallas front office. That's how we ended up with with Mazi Smith And Taco Charlton.

Mingo and Trey are not longer prospects but young veterans that shouldn't merit a draft pick. Both would have been cut at some point and with this team lack of free agency activity in recent years every available draft pick becomes more valuable.

Lance needs reps, he won't get any better by riding the bench. He should be starting the next 4 games and the call needs to be made by Jerry not MM.

Why should we give Lance any reps "to get better" if he is not going to be here next year? Lance is a free agent after this season. Pretty sure he is going to sign elsewhere after this season.

He should have been playing as soon as Dak went down!

I mean, what the hell? This season was shot after last years playoff game!

This team wasn't going to do anything this season but take a giant step back!

Yeah the writing is pretty much on the wall with this one. Unless there is zero market for Lance this offseason and the Cowboys can put him on the PS for 2025 he wont be a Cowboy and its probably best for both parties. He needs to go to an offense that will run a high volume of RPOs & QB runs and compete for a backup spot in an offense better suited for his skillset. That really is the type of offense he will need to be successful in, and I think MM is actually doing the right thing in not overhauling the offense the rest of this year and change responsibilities for 10 other guys on offense that may impact their development.

Unless Lance shows he can be a drop back passer he probably shouldnt start. I am surprised we dont see him on the field more situationally though with some of the packages MM has spoken about.

The problem is this was during the draft. I don't care what your grade for him was coming out of college. They are now in the NFL. They need to be regraded accordingly.

 

[atlantacowboy]

The SF error was far worse than ours. I still think we should be playing Lance now and let him audition for the back up job next year. We aren't making the playoffs. So why not?

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

Want to know why Lance isn't getting reps? Overshown. Players are risking their health & careers every game. The team rightly has to try and win, and Rush gives the Cowboys a better chance than Lance.

Trance left SF because he did not want to be QB 3.

Suddenly “Trance” losing the backup position to Sam D isn’t looking so bad. He’s playing even better than Purdy.
