Joe Milton to Cowboys

[Tin Man]

Aw shucks, Joe. You wind up at that urinal cake that’s the Dallas Cowboys.

If he's coming in as QB2 he'll get PT at Dallas.
This will be a good spot for him

 

[hUTch2002]

As a passionate Vol fan and passionate Cowboy hater, I love the trade.

Joe gonna ball out. Support the kid, he seems like a good one!

Could be that Vrabel wanted to keep Dobbs but the GM didn’t.

Hope that’s the case, but Robinson seemed to roll with Vrabel on most moves. Admittedly that’s a personal opinion.

I keep hoping Hooker will get a shot - tremendous accuracy - but looks like he is just not going to get on the field.

Dak will never make it through the entire season. Joe at some point will almost certainly play.

We are Clipboard U! (except for Manning, of course).

One of the best jobs out there. 1) You have the best seat in the house for all the games. 2) You make great money. 3) A lot of free time in the spring and summer for golf and travel. Who wouldn't love that gig?

Blows my mind how long Tyler Bray lasted in that role.

He might be a good guy, but I’ve never been more frustrated watching football than by watching him. But I hope Jerry Jones lives until he is 150 and Joe Milton starts for the Cowboys that whole time.

Release Dak, save a gang of money, and roll with Joe!!!!!

You don't seem to get how bad the Dak deal was. It would cost the Cowboys somewhere around 150-200M to cut Dak AND he has a no trade clause.

Dak isn't going anywhere even if Joe turns out to be Cam Newton on steroids. Dak's money is mostly guaranteed..... released or not, 200+M, no trade.

This is the latest I've seen regarding Hooker. Among other things it seems to confirm the Bridgewater thing being about having an experienced backup for the playoffs. It still makes it clear he's not considered the #2 yet.

Also Heath Shuler. Had a short career but was a starter.

Don’t know what kind of mind games they are playing with Hendon. If the Lions don’t want him, they should trade him.

 

[SDV]

Poor guy

 

[SpookyAction]

And they gave a 5th round pick to get him. Doubt he sees the field unless injuries at the QB position happen. Notice I used the plural ‘injuries”.

I wager the Pats made a deal with the Cowboys thinking their 5th round draft choice will be ahead of the draft picks of the other teams.

An Update on Joe Milton's Training Camp After Being Traded to the Dallas Cowboys | Rocky Top Insider

Looking at some of the latest reports around Joe Milton's status with the Cowboys as he battles for the backup spot this offseason.

www.rockytopinsider.com

During the G-Bag Nation show on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas on Tuesday afternoon, Cowboys reporter Bobby Belt shared his latest on where Milton is in the process. Belt detailed a nice “deep crosser” that he threw during Tuesday’s practice in just his second throw of practice, acknowledging that Milton is a likely candidate to end up “the training camp star” for the media and the fans this fall.

“I can already hear it now,” Belt said. “You’re going to hear so much of the ‘why isn’t Joe Milton starting? We should have Joe Milton starting.’ Because you’re going to see it. It’s going to look super impressive. He’s still coming along in the processing. To the point that, like, I wouldn’t be surprised if, if they had to go out and play football today, and Dak were to get hurt for some reason, I think Will Grier is coming in. I don’t know that it’s Joe Milton. And so I think that they’re at the point right now where they like the tools, they’re trying to get him comfortable, they’re trying to bring him along. Because the processing is still something that, you know, he speeds up, he speeds through that stuff really quickly and he looks a little frazzled. So he’s working on it. A work in progress. But physically, the way he throws the football is really impressive.”

A work in progress. But physically, the way he throws the football is really impressive.”

Folks have been hearing this since he was recruited at Michigan . I love Joe but you have to admit its funny people have been saying the same thing about him for like 8 years.

Will Dallas finally crack the Joe code? I hope so because it would be exciting to see him ball out.

 

[VolinMichigan]

I wish him all the best, but if he’s still having the same issue he’s had for the last 5-6 years, I don’t know if it’s ever going to come together for him.
