As far as trade rumors go, Ian Rapoport’s series of tweets Friday afternoon might never be beaten.
With the NFL Combine in full swing in Indianapolis, much of the attention is on future NFL players, including the top quarterback prospects in this year’s draft. But, according to the NFL Media insider, the Washington Redskins, San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys could solve their QB problems with known commodities, rather than through the draft.
As #Redskins & #49ers discuss a potential deal for QB Kirk Cousins in the near future, I’m told they may include the #Cowboys (Romo) as well

Play a potential and unprecedented three-way deal forward… #49ers inquire about Cousins. #Redskins talk about Tony Romo. #Cowboys get picks.

Mind = blown.

High ranking Cowboys official says they have not been contacted regarding a three-way deal with that have Tony Romo ending up in Washington.
