You've locked up Terrance Steele for years *****
You have big Tyler Smith at Guard, he's been great for us. Now you add in guys like Guyton, Beebee, Nathan Thomas, along with guys such as Bass/Hoffman etc, there's a bright future for this team for many years. If we ever made a change at QB, he'll have guys to protect him, and to open up holes making his life much easier. Everyone says it starts up front, the Cowboys have done a great job of doing this on the offensive side of the ball. Please give your thoughts
Any retread QB will not win. They are retreads for a reason.
Any drafted QB, just by the odds of success at that position, will not thrive here. Dallas does not draft high enough in the first round to be in play for a real stud. And please do not cite players like Montana and Brady. Or Romo, who was, by far, maybe the worst thing that could happen to this franchise since Jerry saw his success and then decided you can shop the returns shelf at Western Auto, and it seems fans of all ilk agree and cheer on his search for the real football guy title he covets taking the premiere position in rounds normally that send that guy to working for an insurance company within a couple of years..
The facts are if Dallas were to suffer a horrific season, one of several things would happen.
The league would decide the 9ers allowed four 7th round draft picks to walk, thus they need to be compensated with the first four picks in the first round, and that stud QB would go to them.
Dallas would trade down, which would give a woody to the majority of fans here, then take some guy from Slippery Rock (who suffered a chronic separated shoulder with his throwing arm, which Jerry loves Red Shirts) with one of the three first round picks they had, which ended up being cut his fourth year.
The league decides to disband and forfeit all that revenue, funneling it to the WNBA. Because, let's face it, those gals don't make enough money.
Your pipe dreams about a new QB has such a down side because drafting one means rebuild, and trading for one, *** see Lance*** will end up extending this nightmare that started in 1996.
