FRISCO-The quarterback room of the Dallas Cowboys, as well as its future, involved a lot of moving pieces. We can see how, from the outside looking in, those “moving parts” appear to be complications, but from inside The Star, the “moving parts” involving Trey Lance, Cooper Rush, and Dak Prescott add up to a smooth operation and a good chance of a clear plan. Here are our 10 answers to your questions regarding the Cowboys’ plan.
Have the Cowboys taken a close look at the idea and given it another look to make sure it makes sense? Indeed.
Is it troubling that they delayed doing it? Yes.
However, the 2024 cap hit of $59 million was never going to be left unchecked. Dak has had a season worthy of an MVP, which helps. However, for the plan to have changed, he would have needed to be a complete failure this year.
3) Nothing about the trade is “odd.” Either Lance will prove to be an asset or he won’t. It’s a wise move to give away a fourth-round pick in an attempt to hit a priceless bullseye.
4) “This has been a wasted year in Lance’s development,” it has been written. That is not how everybody feels within this building. Even though Lance is only 23 years old, he is receiving coaching from Mike McCarthy, Brian Schottenheimer, Prescott, and Rush.
