and yes it's bleacher report. Like I said I never said it was credible. But this is partly where it is all coming from and why I said even Dallas might be in line to draft a QB ahead of us.
People keep saying we should draft Locker but with so many teams ahead of us possibly needing a QB and if Locker is labled the best of the bunch what makes people think he will be there at #10? I'll agree anything is possible especially with Lockers stock supposedly dropping due to accuracy issues.

Thanks for the links, makes for entertaining reading. Like Jurassic Park, interesting concept, but after that......meh.
The drafting of Steven McGee a few years ago is the key though. Every team would love to have the luxury of having an Aaron Rodgers. In other words, a first round draft pick QB that you can afford to have wait and train in the wings for 3 years because you have a future hall of famer in place.
Thats just not the case though. For the most part, first rounders are expected to start these days and that luxury just is not there.
So Dallas drafted Steven McGee a few years ago, let him sit back on the depth chart, learn and develop. And if he develops correctly, at the end of Romo's contract maybe he gets the nod. He's looked good so far, but if it does not work out, there are still options open.
Romo himself sat behind Testeverde and Bledsoe for 3 years before he got his first start.
