Romo plus Dallas' #1 choice (#28-30)
for J.J. Watt
Boo, ick. Let's get that out of our system now.
But here's a trade that works for both teams even though I would swallow hard on it because the Romo cap hit would make Ozzie's look like a picnic:
Romo to Houston for Brock Osweiler and Will Fuller.
Houston gets the very talented and uberfragile Romo, unload a bad QB with a bad contract (though not as bad as Romo's) and loses a solid receiver that keeps Cowboy Country from totally freaking out.
What Dallas gets is that they are free and clear of both Osweiler and Romo after 2017 and add a speedy weapon who can be used to open up the secondary for Dez Bryant and also become a game-breaking kick returner.
The salaries of the three largely balance out the trade but Houston is stuck with a cap hit until 2020 unless they keep Romo although the final years are reduce the cap hit to almost palatable.
If both sides are agreeable, Fuller could be replaced by Houston's #1 pick (25th overall) which then gives Jerrah a chance to trade up with his pair of low first-rounders.
If Romo can be kept healthy, the Texan offense would finally have the QB that could take them to the next level. If Romo can't stay healthy, there's no way to sugar coat what a bad trade this could become but it would show the Texans are willing to gamble to break through and challenge for a Super Bowl.
