2. Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys are already dealing with a crisis at quarterback. While the faithful down in Texas want to talk about how Dak Prescott is going to revolutionize the position, the likelihood is that he has some very rough moments as a rookie.

With Tony Romo set to miss at least six weeks with a broken vertebrae in his back, the Cowboys should be looking for some immediate quarterback help. Kellen Moore is also done for the season after getting hurt during the opening days of training camp, leaving Prescott and Jameill Showers on the depth chart. yikes.

Sanchez would have a legitimate chance to be good here. Why? The same reasons any quarterback does. He has a great offensive line sitting in front of him with Tyron Smith, Doug Free, Travis Frederick, Zack Martin and La’el Collins holding down the fort. He would also have running back Ezekiel Elliott, the trendy pick to earn Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.

Sanchez would be a great fit here to sit behind Prescott and perhaps come in should things go awry.
