Cowboys interested in Cam Newton??

The Dallas Cowboys. Yes, the same Dallas Cowboys who already have Tony Romo in the prime of his career on their roster.

Newton was asked about going to the Cowboys by reporters from WFAA TV in Dallas. His reply: "Jerry Jones, man he knows how to get hold of me, let's just say that," Newton says. Does that mean Jones has already talked to Newton?

Newton will have a chance to impress Jones and the rest of the NFL at the Combine next week. "Just as a whole, my opportunity right now, I?m just going to continue to work hard on trying to become the best player I can be," he told WFAA. "Whatever team gets me, it's going to be an honor in itself to be picked up and it's just going to be a dream come true."

Tim Cowlishah of the Dallas Morning News (and ESPN's Around the Horn) has seen enough. He says Newton would make a great replacement for Romo.

I'm not sure if they want him bad enough to trade up to get him, or how high they are willing to trade up. This definitely makes this interesting. I wonder how many other teams are interested as well.

This all stems from Cam Newton saying "Jerry Jones knows how to get hold of me." Blech.

I'd love if they fell for him and offered us some nice trades, but really? I just don't see it.

Its not of the realm of possibility. Romo is 31, and is coming off of a bad injury, and everyone knows about his playoff issues, or lack thereof.

True enough, and it'd probably be one of the best situations for Cam to be honest. Not just Romo, but another backup veteran too... He'd be allowed to come along slowly and could really become the icon he wants to be.

Now, we just need to find a way to sell the Cowboys on him...

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Backup QB has been an issue of mine for a long time but not just for Bryce and Dalton. We have never really been able to develop QBs or build an offense around strengths. Dalton isn't going to move the needle one way or another. The problem is in our FO and possibly coaching staff (current staff undetermined as of yet). I'm of the belief that you always try to get better. Dalton wasn't good other than one game against an abysmal defense. Churn the roster, including backup QB. If BY isn't the guy we've got to start over anyway. Who knows. We might actually find someone good. Other teams have done it before.

      Lol. Worst case? I think you mean most likely result. I don't think people are going to be wasting much breath on Dalton or QB2 if Bryce flounders this year. It's going to be people calling for coaches, GM's and owners heads for the mess we got ourselves in with Bryce in the first place. Rightfully so.

      I mean that's his sole reason for being here. He doesn't win football games. He's here to keep Bryce comfortable.
