For the 4 Cowboys fans on SoSH...
I guess we can start with the most obvious story currently occupying the Offseason Thread:
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/03/29/report-deal-done-romo-gets-more-guaranteed-money-than-flacco/
My longtime defense of Romo finally evaporated after his horrendous game ending pick vs. Washington and a 1 legged RGIII in the season finale. Unfortunately, the Cowboys complete inability to draft and develop a viable alternative at QB coupled with his cap number essentially guaranteed this contract. While this deal helps their cap, they still don't have much room. That leaves the draft as the best place to look for impact players at offensive line, safety and defensive line. There is no margin for error at the draft, which is terrifying based on GM Jerry's track record. A bad draft will condemn them to yet another 8-8 shitshow.
I guess it will be interesting to see how he responds to this contract. If he thinks he gets a bad rap in the media now, he should wait until his first 3 INT performance making more guaranteed money that the reigning Super Bowl MVP.
