Mark my words! This is a steal for the cowboys. Joe will be a starting quarterback soon!

Dak will get injured, so yes. Maybe Joe doesn't take Dak's job, but he will start a game or two for the Cowboys.

Interesting tidbit, if true, that the Pats had a better offer for Milton but chose to send him where he wanted to go. In a hard, cutthroat business like the NFL, that's remarkable if true.

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

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

Interesting considering all the NFL talking heads have been saying all offseason that Pats are set at QB with Maye as the starter and Milton as backup. I guess Vrabel didn't see it that way.

Also interesting considering he had Dobbs with the Titans and had no interest in retaining him.

Nope. They brought in Dobbs for that.

I love Joe, but I hate the cowboys. Kind of puts him in the Jason Witten category for me, I hope he plays well but I hope them boyz lose every game.

1st the Pats, now the Cowboys. Somebody is making it hard to root for the man. Hope he gets the chance to see the field because it looks like Hendon isn't ever going to see it.

i don't know any contract details but hoping Milton gets "Jerry" money. always rooting for you Joe!

I don't believe a word of that. PR spin 101 when you dont get back the expected return...

Joe- please launch a 90 yard bomb in preseason that hits the scoreboard at Jerry World..

I tend to actually agree on than one, never thought he would, but congrats Joe!

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”.

They moved up from the 7th round to the 5th and gave up Joe to do that.......or gave basically gave him away.

Yeah, I'm skeptical too. I thought the Eagles would get him and I'm not a Cowboys fan. Jerry bet the house on Dak and can't easily move on after investing all that money for him even if Joe hits his stride in Dallas.

 

[n_huffhines]

Cowboys got a steal here, and I also understand why nobody was offering something better (a 4th) based on just 1 start.

IDK anything about the Cowboys coach, but if he can unlock Milton, he's going to have a good run.

 

[kell7517]

As a cowboys fan. I can tell you this. Joe can not do any worse than Dak. And as someone else posted. Dak is injury prone, so when Joe gets a shot I hope he shows out.

 

[Volador]

I loathe the Patriots, so glad JM3 is outta there but wait, Josh Dobbs is now the Pats backup?? Aye carrrrrramba. And how do we root for the Pats and Cowboys?? With Joe and Josh well and hope they lead their teams to the playoffs in their first year on their new teams.

 

[ZZ13]

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

 

[The_topis_Rocky89]

I have been saying for a while Joe will be a better pro than college player for a few reasons. 1. If we being honest he was the scapegoat for our WRs being bad that year. 2. In the NFL they will stash a QB and rebuild him if they have the right guy. Look at GBs approach to QB play.

 

[MiramarVol]

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

 

[LaagerVol]

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

 

[first time caller]

And so goes Joe’s career as a journeyman QB; aka Josh Dobbs.
