Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign RB Javonte Williams

[Chasing6]

Sidebar: dak being exposed by fangio this game and being outplayed by Teddy Bridgewater was unforgiveable

That's not fair, every RB looks good against Dallas.

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

From ESPN: "According to NextGen stats, Williams' maximum speed with the ball as he crossed the line of scrimmage last season (15.34 mph) was the slowest among all backs with at least 113 carries."

 

[CATCH17]

Solid move.

Equivalent or better than Rico for half the price.

 

[CowboysFanLover]

I can not really complain about this signing since it is a cheap contract

 

[kiheikiwi]

Who's the primary back if Williams is the backup?

Will be drafted this year. Williams is the backup.

Stats like that aren’t important to cap boy. Cheap is all that matters

 

[Chasing6]

Lets be clear. This is a meh move. Nothing like Barkley to the Eagles signing smh. We would spend the first day of FA signing meh players lol.

We could have patiently waited and still signed him.

 

[deerhunter11]

At North Carolina and was a 2nd round pick.

Thank you I will look him up.

Unimpressive. Rico did better

 

[Chasing6]

I'm ok with this. Doesnt move the needle but gives us a little bit of depth at low cost. Jeanty is looking like the 12th pick.

Jeanty won't make it to 12.

Why wait. They got a player for pretty much nothing.

 

[RonWashington]

He had half as many yards as Dowdle last year. Again Jerry and this FO sign a Royce Freeman bargain basement RB . They better draft one by round three they have no fourth rounder . You’re not serious about the running game if you think this is an answer .

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I guarantee you the Jones boys remember Javonte going for 100+ yards on us back in 2021 and it factored into signing this dude four years after the fact.

 

[KJJ]

Probably means Rico is gone

I’m not so sure about that.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

This is basically our last year Zeke lol. Maybe goal line back? He is 220lbs and look to be powerful.

I mean he’s 24…..so he at least isn’t football old.

 

[KingCorcoran]

For the money, I don’t hate the signing. On a one year prove-it deal, Javonte will be motivated to stay on the field and produce.

Draft a RB for the future in the first 3 rounds and we should be in a decent place.

The Cowboys probably offered him a two year deal and he opted for one year and told the Cowboys they’re going to have to prove it to him.

 

[rambo2]

Jeanty won't make it to 12.

However, the receivers will.

 

[vlad]

Jalen Carter just lost sleep

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I guarantee you the Jones boys remember Javonte going for 100+ yards on us back in 2021 and it factored into signing this dude four years after the fact.

They never remember Aaron Jones going off on them always these types lol.

 

[CWR]

Will be drafted this year. Williams is the backup.

We said that about Zeke too.

I'm not crapping on this signing. He's young and at least had talent. No one was great in Denver. Perine was a lot better in Cincy and McMillan was good only in spurts. So maybe the change of scenery help.

Let's not pretend this means we are getting a starter in the draft. You just don't know with this FO.
