Cowboys have wanted a developmental QB for years. That’s why they couldn’t pass on Trey Lance

Associated Press  

ARLINGTON, Texas — Trey Lance gives the Dallas Cowboys the developmental quarterback they’ve sought for years, and owner/general manager Jerry Jones didn’t feel the need for Dak Prescott’s approval to make the move. Let’s get him.” Jones said he didn’t seek Prescott’s input before the Cowboys made the move, and still hadn’t talked to his star QB more than 24 hours after the deal was announced. “We very seldom ever talk to anybody, another player, about who we’re thinking about drafting or who we’re thinking about getting involved with,” Jones said. “The problem is, we put third- and fourth-round grades on guys and they’re all gone by halfway through the second round,” Stephen Jones said.
