Analysis:

At this point, Romo is thought to be leaning toward having the procedure done on his left collarbone, though per the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, such a call hinges on the QB's CT scan ensuring that the bone is fully healed. If he does undergo the procedure, Romo believes that he'd be ready for the Cowboys' OTAs and minicamp, given a recovery time that is typically in the 6-8 week range. Meanwhile, ESPN.com relays Cowboys owner and GM Jerry Jones' continued commitment to Romo as his franchise QB. "What is the one unequivocal fact that you can count on relative to the preparation of this draft and on draft day is that I'm planning on Romo being the quarterback for the next four or five years," Jones noted with reference to the team's approach is advance of April's selection process.
