...And so It Begins... Cowboys could cut or trade S Roy Williams

[Rampage]

lets see which one is starting on somebody's defense and who's playing special teams

and he will be getting picked on left and right for another team.

guess we'll see

 

[Stash]

Break it up you two!

:fight:

Don't make me separate you guys!

:laugh2:

 

[gimmesix]

he's the same thing as Roy but with less talent,more heart, and a lot cheaper.

OK, Davis is a more than willing hitter who gets run over because he doesn't have the size or strength to consistently stand up runners.

No matter what deficiences Williams has in pass defense, which proved no greater than those shown by Davis, he can stuff the run.

I'd at least rather have a safety who can do one of those things really well than one who can do neither.

Again, that's not a knock on Davis, he is what he is ... a very good special teammer and a try-hard backup safety.

like against St. Louis?

When he was playing with a broken arm? You question his heart also? I wonder where KD was at against B-more.....your stance is so asinine

14 hours dead. Now it has a pulse again.

Someone just couldn't leave that argument alone I guess.

Yes! I remember this thread before I went to sleep and wanted to respond.

 

[Hostile]

Yes! I remember this thread before I went to sleep and wanted to respond.

And a vital response it was too.

And a vital response it was too.

I'm glad you approve.

Cowboys Shopping Safety Roy Williams
Posted by CBS11
While teams will be shopping for players when the free agency period begins at 11:00pm (CST) tonight, the Dallas Cowboys are trying to shop safety Roy Williams.



CBS 11 Sports has learned that the Cowboys are seeking a low round draft pick for Williams, a five-time Pro Bowler and the Cowboys first round pick in 2002.



If the Cowboys cannot trade him, I would think they will just waive him. Before teams do that, they try to see if anyone will bite on sending a late round draft pick for the player. It will be interesting to see if teams are willing to give up even that for Williams.



Williams’s career has been interesting. He started out as an impact player, a true Pro Bowler, and then made a few Pro Bowls when his play did not warrant it.



I think he was at his best when the Cowboys played a 4-across zone defense, something that began when Jimmy Johnson arrived, but has pretty much been fazed out of the defensive game plan. Doesn’t mean it is good or bad, it just means that Roy was not nearly as effective in other schemes.

Just because you draft a player for a certain scheme, it doesn’t mean that scheme will survive coaching changes. The scheme didn’t survive, and it appears that Roy Williams Cowboys’ career will also come to an end.

What did New England get from Kansas City for Mike Vrabel?
Perhaps, NE, which could be a fit for Roy Williams, could flip that pick for him.

It was undisclosed, but since belichick called williams a dinosaur at the combine...the chances are small he wants roy.
