Still has a lot of fans in the area. A year or two behind Romo, to allow him time to really heal and work on his mechanics, and if he progresses he could be the heir apparent....depends on how cheap they could get him for.
Tony Romo deserves a slot in the HoF.. Medical Miracle wing.
He must pound the Advil.
Possibly except Dallas’ backup quarterback is also pretty good. IIRC he was a 1st rounder to Cleveland a couple of years ago.
That's become a complex issue since the last NFLPA contract.
First Round draft picks get less money, shorter contracts (4 years), and all 4 years are guaranteed.
RG3 got a $14 million bonus, which is typically spread across all 4 years for salary cap purposes.
His total package was $21 million, so his 4th year base is probably around $2-$3 million.
But, someone, the Skins or the trade team, has to eat the one year $3.5 million salary cap hit, too.
Plus, RG3 just has one contract year left, so he'd be a free agent in 2016 (several types of free agency, I can't recall which applies to RG3).
That means a 2014 trade team has to sign him to a longer term contract to make sure he doesn't bolt after one year, which will reduce his trade value for the Redskins in 2014.
Imagine RGIII and Dez Bryant on the same team??? I dunno...
