    Default Romo Back Fracture - OUT 6-10 WEEKS

    THIS sucks for Romo and will definitely negatively impact the fantasy value of Dez, Zeke and Witten.

    Just going over the latest for tomorrow's draft and yeah, this is big news. Gotta think best case scenario is Week 8 after the bye week.

    With his injury history, especially the last 2-3 years, it's time to pack it in and call it a career. Seriously, the man is broken to bits and time isn't on his side.

    So much for easing Prescott into the starting job, and once again backup QB is an issue. Not that any of this comes as a surprise with a Jerry Jones run organization.

    Sigh. He was going to be one of my guaranteed keepers in my keep three pool. Now he's been massively downgraded to a maybe because my other options aren't great.

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
    Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
    Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid

    I'll say this, Dak has looked really good in preseason. I know, it's preseason but the kid seems ready to go. I don't think the Cowboys are in as bad shape as some may think.

    Ya'll really think they'll ride Dak the whole season, or make trade? McCown?

    I'm sure they will bring someone else in but I think they are comfortable with Dak in the short term.

    It's a swing pick, so basically the same thing
    Dallas hasn't gone in our tier 2 pool yet, so I'm curious how far they slip.

    True, but it makes me feel marginally better that they weren't my first pick. Unless the Colts suck as well.

    It was a gamble but in my limited knowledge I figure at that point it was worth a shot.

    I'm not a football guy but even I know that it is time for Romo to hang them up. There is life after sports.
