Considering Mariota is the best QB prospect since Luck, it would cost waayyy too much to trade up to get him. We have a QB, anyway.
But if I were a loaded team such as the Rams and needed a franchise QB, I would trade for him.
And during the coin toss, the opposing coach could trot out all of the players acquired in the trade for him
Maybe the year after?it's too early, Romo will play next year and maybe the year after.
The skins gave three! first rds and a second for Griffin
you can't sit a QB with that much assets laid out
just too early,mainly
Maybe the year after?
He's the QB for the next 4 years minimum, probably more.
I would rather go after Manziel. I would do everything within the rules to get Manziel to hold out and make the trade.
When we need a quarterback (Romo can't play anymore or age has taken away his ability), then we should just tank a season and pick a QB high. While I like the idea of having a developmental player learning behind Romo, I fear that we would be wasting a roster spot on some low level prospect who may never pan out anyway.
We kind of got lucky with Romo, but that was after Carter, Hutchinson, Henson, Testaverde, and Bledsoe. I'd rather not be stuck in bad-to-mediocre ever again. I can live with one awful season, and a blue chip QB in the next draft. See: Colts, Indianapolis.
I ain't trading up for anyone.
