SUMMARY
Quarterback Rank: #10   
Overall: #54


Romo missed a game because of a thumb injury but still had a big season. He topped the 4,000-yard mark and scored 32 touchdowns. His touchdown total was the second highest of his career. It was the third time he hit the 4,000-yard mark passing. Romo really limited the turnovers last season, throwing just 10 interceptions. He had a career-best 102.5 quarterback rating. He also had five 300-yard games. Romo plays in a high-powered Cowboys passing attack with several top options at his disposal. He has a plus arm and does well making plays on the run. He will force some throws and make some bad decisions but has improved in that area the last few years. Romo is 32 years old so he has plenty of good years left in this offense.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Romo is an elite fantasy option. He isn't in the same category as Drew Brees or Aaron Rodgers but just outside that group. He'll post consistent weekly numbers in a good offense. You can expect around 270 yards and a couple scores each week from Romo. Another season with 4,000-plus yards and around 35 scores is likely for Romo.
Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo has been displaying more leadership during offseason workouts and setting a good example to teammates. 'Just the fact that he's been there everyday, working out, he's calling people out, letting people know what they're doing right, what they're doing wrong,' RB DeMarco Murray said. 'He's working out tremendously hard. We also have Jason Witten, who has always been a great leader. And everybody's just being more vocal this year. Everybody's working hard and everybody's on the same page.'

Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo said he has no issue whether the team focuses on offense or defense during the NFL Draft. 'My attention is for anybody who is going to make us better,' Romo said. 'If it makes our defense a dominant defense, I'm all for that. If it makes our offensive line dominant, I'm all for that. If it makes anything, I think that's what you're looking for. At this position, it is just about winning, so whatever is going to help us win. I think we have some intelligent people at the top who are doing a good job with that stuff.'

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said the team can win a Super Bowl with QB Tony Romo. 'I think he plays that position well enough for us to win a Super Bowl, period,' Jones said. 'He's that good. We've got to some things differently in other parts of it and Tony has to do his part, too. He's got to be a leader and he's got to pull those guys in. But the way he plays quarterback isn't our problem.'

Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (hand) would not use his hand injury as an excuse for his Week 17 performance. 'Anytime you're in this position and you don't win, it's hard to take,' Romo said. 'It's very disappointing (and) frustrating. I have a lot of emotions going right now.' Romo revealed that the pain in his hand prompted him to have the Cowboys' training staff to give him a pregame injection to numb part of it.
