Twitter: Trey Lance trade was an abomination

[DuncanIso]

We paid the most for the QB who has done the least from that ‘21 draft.

Lance has reportedly shown little to nothing in practice so far in his time in Dallas.

We won’t have a 4th round pick in a draft where gurus are saying there will be plenty of 3rd round grades available in the 4th rd.

To put a cherry on top, we’re probably going to end up losing Lance for nothing after this season.

Shambolic front office.

We shall soon see.

Be careful what you wish for.

You aren’t lying. We could end up winning nothing for 30 years.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Well, get off the couch....don't put yourself down....if you don't think trading for Lance with two years to develop him isn't trying, YOU aren't trying.

I never said it wasn't trying.

I said people thinking it is ALREADY an abomination aren't for trying.

I'm sorry..I thought I was clear.

That team has played in multiple super bowls while this one looks lost with a slew of holes to fill. But hey.. nice job Cowboys!

What did "that team" give up for the alleged failure? Who lost out the most? The team you say are brilliant?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

All the evidence you need to see that Lance has shown little is that after being with the team for 5 months he is still a 3rd-string scrub QB.

Well that's it then. End of story.... since you say so.

 

[Zordon]

Not that I’m disagreeing with you but when/where was it reported Lance has shown nothing in practice? Any links available?

It doesn’t exist. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

The Cowboys have kept quiet on how Lance is progressing until recently when Stephen Jones made a “nothing to write home about” positive comment about it. A thread here mentioned it.

Dunno why this is a big deal. Out of all the QBs listed Lance has the biggest upside. Also, a 4th round pick is pittance compared to what the 49ers gave up, but no one keeps berating them about it.

It hasn’t been reported,

I'd like to see and read those reports. Because throwing that out there means nothing without some context.

link?

Right. Thats why i dont get people arrogant enough to claim his doom. Theres nothing either way, but i remain hopeful something comes of it.

Bro you completely hit the nail on the head here with one simple word....TRY! Honestly I would rather Jerry/Stephen completely fail and this team win 6 games next year as long as they are legitimately trying. I can root for trying....I can support even the biggest of buffoons giving it their all.

This continued plan of going with the path of least resistance, just stay around the rim type of approach that leads to the same results year after year has run its course. For that reason alone I don't hate the Lance deal. Now a good chunk of other moves made over the last year, or lack of is another discussion.

If trading a 4th round pick for a QB from an FCS level school where he played very few games and played even less in the NFL equals “legitimately trying” that’s a concern.

They still played in multiple super bowls and do everything they can in the offseason to improve their team. Brilliant? No. You said that, but in comparison to this team that they owned for years now, they are.

How do you know how lance is doing in practice? I haven't seen any reports that he doesn't look good in practice.

Lance is about to catch Dak in the thread category.

 

[Creeper]

Don't worry, when Jerry trades him he will get a conditional 7th round pick for him.

That is not a report from someone who watched lance in practice. They did not say he was bad in practice.

 

[mfiggs18]

I've been thinking and they were banking on Prescott getting injured like the previous seasons and inserting lance into the lineup if Rush had consecutive bad games to see if they could move on from Prescott.

Not a chance..

The Jordan Love was an abomination at the GB Draft, until it was genius....these takes are ridiculous until the guy gets on the field for a defined period to see what he does/doesn't have.

 

[America's Cowboy]

But AC...at the time Jones made the trade, some CZers stated giving up that 4th round pick was inconsequential \ low risk.

I hear you bro. This place is a lot like Jerry. Not very smart.

 

[stiletto]

I hear you bro. This place is a lot like Jerry. Not very smart.

How many 4th round picks become starters on average? Serious question. Is it a number > 20%?

I heard it was less than like 10 out of 100 become NFL starters. If true giving up a 4th is not the end of the world..
