Cowboys Acquire WR Roy Williams

Welllll, shit. I feel like we could have made this deal.

Fuck the corporate world. I'm happy w/ our wideouts, but this is more than a damn shame. It means the Cowboys will have an elite WR for the forseeable future. It means we'll need to pull out a TON of nickel/dimes vs. them when they're at full strength, which means that their running game will be picking up a lot of yardage.

Sucks when teams get 2 #1 WRs. It'll be very tough to cover.

I guess this's been gone over in a separate diary. Didn't see commentary.

*shrugs

big freaking whoop. statistically, he’s barely better than reggie brown. he cried being number 2 in detroit to calvin johnson; only a matter of time before he starts in dallas. with the losing their about to do with brad johnson at the helm, TO will be anything but receptive once he starts taking receptions from him.

on top of that the cowboys gave up everything but their new stadium to get him.

roy is good, no doubt, but extremely overrated. if anything, the girls didn’t need a WR…cornerback…even qb maybe? this will sting them in the near future and next season.
you’ll see…

4th and 26!!!!

To top it off

How in the hell do they sign him longterm? They have no money this year anf they do have a few free agents next year that need to be signed as well as their draft picks. And again let’s not talk about those DB’s.

I would love to blow up Texas Stadium... With team still in it

The Lions should be arrested for grand theft.

But they’ll just waste the picks on more overrated WR’s and career backup QB’s

GREAT MOVE BY BIG D

t.o. is 35..roy is only 26…they needed another top flight wr down the road now they got him…roy williams has been on det, what kind of numbers you expect him to put up there lmaoo….On the draft picks….dallas gave up a 1 ,3,6 …they still have clev 3rd rd pick which is higher than the one they gave to det…they still have miami’s 6th rd pick which is higher than the one they gave to det……they also got a 5th rd and 6th round from tenn for pac man….so they started the day with 10 draft picks …now they are left with 9…plus they wil get another 2 for julius jones and reeves….there in damn good shape going into the draft in april….and they now have roy williams…plus can u find another roy williams in rd 1….not so sure about that…great move by dallas
