What happens if Brady Quinn is at our pick?

[McCordsville Cowboy]

Oakland , Detroit, or Cleveland wont let him get by..

There is a reason those teams WILL pick him..

If you wouldnt pick him at 23 , you need to grow a brain..

Its a value pick. You could always trade it. Id rather have Brady Quinn at that pick vice Aaron Rodgers at that pick..

 

[Timbo2st]

Why not Charlie Weis to be the offensive cordinator? never know.

Weis isn't leaving Notre Dame anytime soon.

We could trade the pick. But why on earth would we draft him? We have our QB. We dont need him, if we took him and traded him, we wouldnt get the value of a 22nd pick. I dont understand the logic here.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

we'd pass him just like if he were Aaron Rodgers

 

[CF74]

Hypothetically "IF" he was still around then yeah, maybe. After riding the pine for 3 or 4 years he might have something...

WHY WOULD WE TAKE HIM??
No one can give a good answer other than "good value." But we have no use for him.

Been a Cowboys fan long?

Let me take you back in time...1989 we drafted Aikman, we didn't draft another QB until we reached for Carter, and he's the only one we have drafted since 2000.

Care to guess why we suffered through the Wright, Carter, Hutch, Stoerner, Leaf, Vinny, Henson, Bledsoe years?

That is why if a blue chip QB is there this year we'd be absolutely crazy not to draft him...right now we have Romo and Baker at QB next year.

 

[Clove]

Draft him! Worst case scenario, you have a Chargers situation. QB is the hardest spot to find, until you are 100 % sure, you have to turn every stone over.

I don't think that's the worst case scenario

that would be Quinn turning out to be a bust and/or never beating out Romo

Either way, win win for us. If Quinn turns out to be better than Romo, then yay! If Romo turns out to be better, then yay!

how is Quinn never sniffing the field for us a win? we just spent a 1st round pick on a backup, from what looks to be a top-heavy, 1st 2 rounds

He will see the field in pre-season, and if Romo goes down, or Romo starts sucking. Either way, he will see the field.

I'm sure someone would be more than willing to give us someone special for a QB - BTW, do we know for a fact that Romo is the answer? It's hard to get a grip on a little more than half a seasons work, but when someone like Quinn falls to you, you'd better know for a FACT that the QB you have is definitely the answer.

we dont' know that, but it's looking better for him at the moment than it is for Quinn, who's already at a 50% chance of being a bust, while Romo has lowered his percentage to about 25-30

I'm just saying w/ the committment that JJ and BP have shown that they feel Romo is the answer, it's highly unlikely we'll draft a QB, much less one in the 1st round, and the Chargers drafted RIvers because Brees slumped in his 2nd year, and there were doubts from the FO and Shotty if he could be their franchise QB

I'm just saying. And you and I both know that if some, let's say Russell fell to us, you and your franchise had better be dang sure Romo is the answer, because you're talking about having a gold mine fall in your lap, and you pawn it off on someone else, to find out later that this person turned into an all world QB, while you're stuck with trash. That's a gamble I would take.

guess we'll just have to agree to disagree then

Why are you labeling him a 50% bust when it could very well be a 50% chance at being the next Aikman?

well most of the discussion was in the context of what if Romo ends up busting, just replying that the chances for Quinn busting as being greater because of the 50/50 chance that rookies, esp. Qbs, face of making, or breaking

Shame on you, summer. You used to be more optomistic.

But Quinn would come in without the pressure to lead the franchise right away...we have a young QB in place.

It's very similar to the situation in SD.

Draft Quinn, give Romo a new deal and let the best man win the job and in 2-3 years trade one off for picks...that is after we draft another QB to groom.

We should begin drafting one every other year in rounds 3-6 anyway so getting a blue chipper falling to us is a no-brainer, IMO, you absolutely take him.

I highly doubt he falls, but I'll bet money Troy Smith is there in round 2 and I'll be pissed if we pass on him too.
