I know. But just made me think about our own QB options.

I'd prefer the Howell, cheap (by QB standards) Veteran FA, draft pick option.

But if the team decides to go after an expensive option (picks and/or money), give me Lamar.

If people are willing to spend money on go no where veterans like Brissett or Dalton, what about Cooper Rush? Are we saying we don’t want to apply pressure to Howell?

Jacoby Brisset is the veteran I'm targeting if we're going with the Howell, draft pick, veteran route (my preferred route).

Not really sure what go no where means. Both of the guys you mentioned are still in the league, therefore, very successful. Rush is 29 too, so not like he's some spring chicken. His limited sample size this year is likely the highlight of his career. Brissett and Dalton have way more tape.

I think we definitely want to apply pressure to Howell, which is why my #1 course of action would be to bring in a Veteran FA QB.

Cooper Rush has been in the league for 5 years, but he doesn't have many more starts than Howell at this point. I'm not counting anyone out - as far as coming in and competing and pushing Howell, but I don't think Cooper would be near the top of my list. Surely not above guys like Brissett, Dalton, Bridgewater, Mayfield...

If you bring in Carr, L Jackson, Garappolo, G SMith...then you aren't pushing Howell. He would then be your backup. I hope they don't do this, but I'm assuming all options are on the table.

Yeah, I hit the dank for the first time in a couple months last night. That wasn’t a good suggestion.

Please no bridgwater, but I like your other suggestions

Those weren't really suggestions. I was just saying that Cooper would be even lower on my list than those guys. The fact is though, if they want someone who will really push Howell and/or be a competent backup - someone who can come in in a pinch and get you a W, then they will have to pay for that guy.

Hell, Heinicke's market value according to Spotrac is $19.8M annual average salary. Dalton and Brissett are in the $6-7M range.

[CrustyRedskin]

Doubt Dalton would wanna come back. The last time he was here he almost went home without his head.

Eli Apple being a troll on Bills .. probably on Hamlin

Hes an angry elf.

Bengals going from lovebale underdogs to eliteist assholes real quick imo

[AnonEmouse]

I saw that too, and I can't believe someone will pay him $10M, let alone near 20. Maybe they will but it better not be us! I've always liked Brissett, if only as a bridge QB. Don't love the idea of him as the starting QB unless Howell bombs in camp, but he'd make a more than adequate backup.

Haha, yep, add 1 more step for half the media jumping on their jockstraps, and that's 100% accurate.

And yet the Dallas hype machine will be back in full force come August.

Nothing like the team twitter account throwing Dak under the bus, like WTF?

@dallascowboys
Dak Prescott gave away the ball twice in the narrow loss to the 49ers, in a matchup the Cowboys had a chance to win if they didn’t again generate self-inflicted wounds.

That hit was probably ordered by Jerry Jones himself.
