For a 12 team, thats pretty solid.
At QB, you are set
At RB, Forte and Bernard are good, you have a PPR dream team but its standard lol
At WR, DThomas and Jordy are above average for 1 2 WRs
at TE, Cameron is a beast
This draft easily gets an A

You don't need a backup qb when you have cam newton, he has literally never finished outside of top 5 qbs in his career

So should I trade romo and pick up a qb for cams bye week only?

I wouldn't. If there is a year that isn't Cam's year, its this year with an overhaul at WR. On the flip side, there hasn't been a season more promising for Tony Romo than this one. It could turn into a platoon. I actually platooned Cam and Foles last year, and it worked well. I can see a scenario where playing the matchup with Newton and Romo makes sense this season

I agree Romo has upside, but I think your buying into the annual Cowboys preseason hype. Cam Newton not only has a higher ceiling, but he also has a way higher floor. If Newton ran for a new career low, it would be about 500 rushing yards and 5 rushing touchdowns. So conservatively, youâ€™re adding an 80 point floor onto anything he does in the passing game. Bottom Line - All Newton would need to do get the exact same 2013 passing stats as Alex Smith, and run for a career low, and he would be a top 5 QB. Why on earth would you need anyone with more upside than that?
