Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign RB Javonte Williams

[john van brocklin]

Maybe he meant passive aggressive?

That's a better description.

 

[gimmesix]

He'll be the same cost as Williams.

Chubb? I doubt it ... unless he stays for that in Cleveland out of loyalty. I bet his deal averages at least $6 million. Najee Harris just got $9.5 million.

 

[jazzcat22]

Jeanty won't make it to 12.

Good. We can draft a DT or LB, or WR McMillan if he drops. We can get a RB in the 2nd round.

 

[jazzcat22]

Yes. Take your time with Micah, but rush with the emergency back up RB.

Yes they can take Tyler time with Micah. It is not a priority.

He's 29 and the last two years he's had two significant leg injuries. The nfl usually doesn't pay injured guys.

Nice!!! I like it!!

We'll see. He has been a 5.0-plus every year but last year, when he got hurt while trying to come back from an ACL tear. I think some team will take a chance on him at a pretty good price.

Him and Jeanty will be an elite backfield

we're not drafting Jeanty

 

[speedkilz88]

we're not drafting Jeanty

Probably because he'll be gone in the top ten.

 

[Mr_437]

Rico is better imo, but hey he's cheap right, that's the Cowboys way.

"Williams' 4.4 yards per touch across the last four seasons is the third-fewest in the NFL, minimum 750 touches, and ahead of only Ezekiel Elliott's 4.1 yards per touch and Najee Harris' 4.3 yards per touch in that span."

Very inspiring quote! I do think Williams is probably an ok signing as a backup and guy you're giving 5-7 touches a game too in a relief role, but if you're rolling him out to be bell cow or 50/50 snap guy the front office is very misguided. Personally, I would have rather taken a flyer on Chubb despite all the injuries.

He was good pre knee injury. Has looked terrible post 2022.

I’m just sick of these 1 year vet prove it signings. In my mind, these 1 year contracts are for teams competing at the top and simply adding depth.

Jerry wants half his roster on 1 year deals and another 10-15 rookies.

 

[Mr_437]

Zeke replacement

Think the latter is gone well before 12.

So we got a bargain compared to Harris?

 

[gimmesix]

He was good pre knee injury. Has looked terrible post 2022.

Maybe our new OC is looking at the payoff from sticking with James Conner in Arizona. His first year there, he averaged 3.7 YPC, and he's been 4.3 or better since. Of course, when the Cards signed Conner, he had never averaged below 4.0.

 

[Chasing6]

Jeanty will be a Raider.

 

[Bagman]

This guy could be even slower than Zeke. What a horrible signing for a team with terrible team speed.

 

[Bagman]

I'm struggling to understand why Dallas chose to sign this injured snail of a runner. Is a cheap price tag the only important quality we look for ? The guy has less explosion than Zeke. This is getting embarrassing.
