The Cowboys insist that Tony Romo is still a part of their plans going forward, but that hasn’t stopped speculation on whether Romo could be traded this offseason and what his price tag could be. Tom Pelissero of USA Today Sports checked in with a handful of NFL executives to gauge Romo’s trade value and got a wide range of answers.

One GM feels the Cowboys could get as much as a second-round pick, provided that the Romo could pass a physical. Another executive predicted the Cowboys could ask for a second or third. Another said a third was the absolute max Dallas could get. Other responses ranged from a sixth-round choice to a conditional late-round pick.
“Imagine me going to [the owner] and saying, ‘Listen, I’m going to make a trade for a 36-year-old that’s got back issues that’s a backup,’ ” one anonymous GM said. “He’d be like, ‘You’re crazy.’ ”
Of course, it’s hard to peg Romo’s value without having a good handle on his health or the quarterback landscape in the offseason. Romo’s market would vary depending on which teams needed a quarterback and exactly how desperate they are. As I have noted before, this year’s draft class is pretty thin at QB, and that could help the Cowboys’ case if they choose to deal their one-time franchise star.
The executives mentioned the Jets, Broncos, Cardinals (if they were to dump Carson Palmer) and Bears as possible suitors. The 49ers need a QB, but as Pelissero notes, Romo isn’t a great fit for Chip Kelly‘s offense.
Texans are 6-3 and need a QB. Romo could make them a contender.
The Texans don’t have the salary cap or will want to accomodate with parting picks to acquire Romo. Need to ride it out with Brock.
Y’all do know that Romo has never made the Cows a contender right so how would he make anyone a contender ya crazy.
You are a complete moron and idiot! Could you even spell football?
you do realize the cowboys were one play away from the NFC Championship game with Romo in 2014
He’ll be 37 next season and has a history of injury…… I’ll pass…??
It’d be a very Bears or Jets thing to do
Worked for Broncos on manning when everyone else passed
I reckon multiple teams wanted Peyton and he turn offers to visit down. Then he chose his own team, they ain’t choose him. So nah you wrong this ain’t close even if Tony become free. Those guys on different levels. Peyton is all time great. Legend. Tony ain’t. He above average sometimes, maybe good sometimes. But mess up a bunches and played on popular team. He ain’t good. He done. Y’all know true.
“They ain’t choose him”. -_-
I think the Cowboys should hold out. They don’t have to move him.
I’d keep him and see if a team gets desperate during preseason. It’d be great if the Cowboys got a Sam Bradford type deal. A good training camp would boost Romo’s value.
Y’all know they can’t get no high pick for an old, broken down and high paid guy that loves to throw the ball to defense players ya know
Terry Bradshaw be trolling…
Romo has been great with subpar talent around him, but hey haters are gona hate, so what, he lived the American dream, and will lough all the way to the Bank. Whoever gets him will get an extra motivated player
