YoloinOhio Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I was listening to Sirius yesterday and I can't remember who was on the show but they were saying that the Cowboys are infatuated with Manziel and think he is a younger version of Romo but with more fire and competitiveness. They really want the kid for a variety of reasons but unsure as to whether and how long he would sit behind Romo. They added that Romo's contract, even restructured, is precluding the Cowboys from adding players they need to get to the playoffs as they are in cap hell- bringing up questions about Romo being possible trade bait. If the Cowboys put Romo on the block for the Bills to trade this year's #1 (so they can take Manziel) and next year's #1, would you as a Bills fan take that?

MarkAF43 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I wouldn't trade for Romo for 2 third rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maury Ballstein Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yes...Romo with a good defense = something relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 yes I would trade two 1st round picks for a franchise QB (Top 10) I consider Romo a Top 15. Romo is damaged goods with a bad back. Romo has a $27 mil cap hit in 2015. i would NOT trade two #1's for Tony Romo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I wouldn't trade two first round picks in the WNBA draft for Tony Romo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 I really like EJ. A lot. But I think if you put Romo in at QB, this team is on a whole different level. I know about his picks at the end, but he is always in a shootout because he has had terrible defneses. I think Romo is really good QB. Now he is in his 30s.... so you know you don't have him long... but you keep EJ behind him. So I don't know.... yes I would trade two 1st round picks for a franchise QB (Top 10) I consider Romo a Top 15. Romo is damaged goods with a bad back. Romo has a $27 mil cap hit in 2015. i would NOT trade two #1's for Tony Romo. Yes, that is an issue with the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Nope. The only guys in the entire league that I would trade two first round picks for are Aaron Rodgers and Andrew Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max997 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 is this a serious question? at this point trading Romo would most likely be worse for the Cowboys cap then keeping him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 F--- no. Seriously? I wouldn't trade one third round pick for Romo on that contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 is this a serious question? at this point trading Romo would most likely be worse for the Cowboys cap then keeping him Yes they were debating it on the radio. I guess there was only so much mock draft talk they could take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Not anymore, dude is 34 years old and health issues have started. Five years ago that's a steal. Guy has been a top 10 QB pretty much his whole career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricojes Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) He's 34 and has been beat up the past couple years, though he is tough. He is still a top 15 QB, but not worth 2, or even 1, 1st round pick. If Dallas is desperate to get rid of him, that price tag would be much lower...

Bangarang Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Isn't Romo like 35 years old? How many good years does he even have left? I'm never doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 So I think they will find a way to take Manzeil anyway... even if they can't move Romo. I thought he was younger than 34 (like 31 or so) the way they were talking. Jerry won't be able to live without Manzeil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXBILLSFAN Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 NO WAY !! 34 year old who has had 2 back surgeries. Maybe would have done it 4 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
