Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 (edited) To cut him or trade him they get a 19.6 mil cap hit. I assume they try and trade him to a team he wants to go to so they get something in return. He'd be under team control with market price cap hits. Their best course would be retirement. They don't have to eat the whole hit I don't think Edited December 9, 2016 by dneveu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I'm probably one of the most pro-Romo posters haunting this place and I wouldn't take him for market value. I think he's probably unable to take much more punishment and that's not a risk worth taking (quite frankly for the Bills or Tony). What's market value for him though? I genuinely am not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUNCH OF MULARKEY Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I can't decide if I'd hate Romo or Cutler more. . . Think I wanna see if EJ progressed Lol..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 What's market value for him though? I genuinely am not sure Because of high demand and limited supply, I think "market value" will be far above "actual value". Not a terrible time to be a Romo.

Meatplow Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 What would you trade for him? EJ What would you pay for him if he hit the open market? $2.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Might be better off asking Jimbo to unretire and come back, even at his age and recent health issues he may last longer on the field then Romo who could be one hit away from spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

Perry Turtle Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 They should take whatever the Rams paid for Joe Namath and adjust it for inflation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 What's market value for him though? I genuinely am not sure If you're signing him to be your starter, it would be pretty insulting to offer less than what Brock Osweiler got for a player of Romo's calibre. So, you're looking at $18m/year minimum. You're assuming that he's healthy and durable if you're signing him so there's no "but...." about his value. If you trade for him, his salary is $14m for 2017 and $19.5m for 2018. Even that figure is tough to justify, given the injury history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 @NFLSpinZone Jerry Jones says he intends for Tony Romo to return to the #DallasCowboys for the 2017 #NFL season http://nflspinzone.com/2016/12/09/dallas-cowboys-tony-romos-return-2017-intention-jerry-jones/ If Romo returns to the Cowboys it shows everything that prevented him from living up to his potential. Even at the back end of their careers Elite QBs aren't willing to take a seat for their young replacement to take over. If he doesn't go elsewhere it shows his lack of competive fire. There is no way that after all these years a competitive guy is willing to sit on the bench. I guess we will see, but I know that Marino,Elway,Montana,Favre, and Brady would never sit on the bench while a young guy starts for the team they devoted their career to.
