Tony Romo reveals what separates quarterbacks at the highest level

NFL organizations, like the Dallas Cowboys, spend millions of dollars scouting and evaluating potential players. But history has shown us that one of the hardest positions to evaluate in professional football is the quarterback position. And no one would know that fact better than the Cowboys current starting quarterback, Tony Romo.

After being undrafted out of Eastern Illinois in 2003, Romo signed as an rookie free agent with the Cowboys. A year later, the raw prospect was nearly cut from the team with quarterbacks Quincy Carter, Vinny Testaverde and Drew Henson ahead of him on the depth chart.
