Cowboys Trade for QB Trey Lance

[Simpleton]

are we slated to get any comp picks next April? that would kinda make it a wash.

We'll probably get a 6 for McGovern.

Maybe John Lynch doesn’t know what he’s doing.

They for sure don’t have a QB on the roster still. Purdy is going to be exposed. Darnold is a turd.

Jimmy G was the only halfway dependable QB they had.

 

[bbgun]

They keep saying that he needs to play, but I don't see how that happens in the short-term. He was third in Frisco and now he's third in Dallas.

you can't be mad at the dice roll.

Sure you can. A 4th is too much for a big time bust.

It also puts a bit of pressure on Dak to not try to squeeze every last cent out of an extension.

It does no such thing since Lance sucks. It's like saying having Cooper Rush puts pressure on Dak to be reasonable with his extension.

The pick is a fourth rounder.

So we can trade Trey Lance and get Amari back with a seventh?

Jesus Christ.

I am off writing some long winded post and then I see this.

What the fucking hell is going on?

I have had a very stressful day and I am trying to keep it inside.

This QB drama is not something I am interested in having right now.

Fourth round. Seems kind of rich.

If he looks decent in practice it gives the team a small bit of leverage. I don't think Dak actually wants to leave Dallas and some of the negotiating power he had last time was that you couldn't actually argue that we had any sort of reasonable replacement or any sort of path forward without him.

It's a bit of a stretch but if Lance looks encouraging in practice (which none of us will know) it's at least some kind of fallback where the FO could at least try to threaten walking away if his demands are outrageous with a straight face.

It is but it's not enough to piss me off. A 3rd would've pissed me off.

 

[Foobio]

It would make more sense to take a guy in the 4th that has real NFL potential, like the Raiders did with Aiden Oconnell. This is just throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks because someone paid a ridiculous price for said shit initially.

I agree, I was hoping maybe we were at least getting a fifth or sixth back in return.

I mean I'm ok with adding Lance and seeing if we can develop him. He is 23 years old. Basically the same age as other QBs drafted this year. He has some serious physical tools. But getting beat out by Darnold sort of tells you how far along he is. You basically have to treat him like taking a fourth round shot on a rookie QB.

Plus if you develop him he may actually have trade value.

@NoDak is either somewhere remote and has not seen this or he has jerked it clean off and needs medical attention.

 

[Smitty]

Smutty? Really?

 

[bbgun]

In the words of Family Guy, it's not even the best Dakota.

The fourth does not bug me.

That seems to be the Fehoko round.

I am okay with this.

That "if" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
