It was absolutely the wrong move. We gave up an asset to give up an asset to hopefully receive a 37 year old player who by our own CND said had zero chance of surviving a single season ... and we'd be paying him a buttload of money. Cap space is easy, 2nd round picks are not. We lost a crappy but capable backup, with nothing else on the roster, and paid for the privilege. NOTHING about this situation was wise, or was even in the vicinity of common sense.
I didn't say going after Romo was the right move. They could have used that cap space in a variety of different ways, but chose not to. That's on the FO for sitting pat on Romo.
And for what it's worth, I'm absolutely down on Smith's ability to find late 2nd round talent. I have a feeling that once again we'll eke our way into the playoffs and end up picking in the twenties. We're not risking a near 1st rounder next year.
