If we could get our hands on Andre Johnson of the Houston Texans. I was reading something the othere day where a scout said "Romo is good, but a lot of it is the supporting cast"
I think a QBs life is SO MUCH EASIER when he knows his weapons are going to get man coverage. When I watched Brady a couple of weeks ago, I was stunned on how ordinary he looked. His front office arrogance has left the team devoid of bona fide weapons in the passing game. They drafted Chad Jackson, but they drafted him about 1 or 2 years to late. If they knew they would never reach Deion Branch's contract demands...they should have been getting their roster ready for his departure a lot sooner.
I like Romo, I now feel he is for real...but are OL is nothing special and our RBs are adequate. BOTH units however benefit from the bona fide Pro Bowl talent in the passing game. We know TO and Glenn have 2 years tops left in them. We are the Dallas Cowboys. Because of our visibilty, people always make us their Super Bowl. We cannot try and get by with diamonds in the rough at WR. Crayton is and will always be a 3rd. Hurd is an unknown...but at his best he will be a #2...and I am not even sure about that. We have to make this a priority.
So that brings me to my question for my fellow zoners (and yes I have longed for this guy for a long time)
There is someone in the state of Texas that plays football and plays the WR position. He is wasting away on a team that will not be winning anytime soon. In fact, that team should have traded away their QB for picks and drafted their hometown hero...who would have bought them some time to get their OL fixed
This person I speak of is Andre Johnson. I know most of us our spooked by the Joey Galloway deal...and it was dumb. But I would trade our 1st round pick for Andre Johnson. As I think about it...Mike Holmgred traded a 1st for Deion Branch and his reasoning was "Hassleback is in his prime, and I want to give him as many weapons as possible to take advantage of this window"
I know Parcells will never do it...we will probably draft another DL or LBer...but it will be a grave mistake to keep ignoring the offense. I like Romo, I really do, but even the greates have looked bad when the talent around them went south.
Do you guys out there like the guy AND would you trade for him?

)....then I would give up a #1....because I think it will take a #1. He is TO with much less tread on his tires....plus he would come with MUCH less drama than TO.....not saying I don't appreciate TO....I am just saying that we don't want to get caught with our pants down at the position.
