Manuel Johnson seems to be making a name for himself.

Look at Roy Williams' one handed catch. Picture 8. Damn, thats incredible, and he caught it left handed.

Please prove me wrong this season Roy, if you do - we will be a special offense.

Funny thing about Roy is that most of his spectacular one handed catches have been with his left hand. I recall the one handed catch from Brad Johsnon in the Giants game last year.

I also recall two from his rookie season when he looked like the MJ log in the air while catching those passes. He called those his Jordan passes.

that's one exciting thing about Roy, he can really catch the football

that's why he's so effective downfield, not that he's a burner, just that he'll go up and get those bombs

Well on that one, I accidentally disabled the image's hyperlink. It was on there when I first posted it.

I'll fix it.

What a catch by Roy.

One thing is certain with this guy, he has solid hands.

Siavii does look like a pretty big dude, even compared to Gurode and Holland. It looks like those guys are going at it pretty good even without pads.

He's actually considered to be on the small size for his DT position.

What would be a solid season from Roy by your standards? You seem to be the biggest sane skeptic of Roy here(I don't count Daboys or IlovemeSomeme). I'd be down for 1150 yards and 9 TD's.

Well we gave up a 1st, 3rd, 6th, and a 5 year 45 million dollar contract (richest WR deal in the game) I'd expect him to outperform every other WR in the league given the price we paid.

But I'm a realist, and I understand that if this move leads to us winning a championship all this talk will be for nothing.

I think he'll be given a fair amount of shots in the redzone, particularly with fades which are high percentage plays for him. I'm expecting a very high YPC because Romo will provide him with some big play opportunities.

Hopefully 1,000 + and 8-12 TDs. The ball is going to get spread out a lot more this year, we're going to give a lot of different looks and get certain players in packages to better suit their ability - rather than just merely compliment a certain player and be 2nd options.

Benett and Austin are going to take a big chunk of Roy's stats so I won't be hard on him in that regard. I just hope he works on running better routes, stays healthy, and moves the chains. If he can do that and we protect Romo we'll be in good shape.

Small? He's listed as 6'5 320 lbs. He does look lean tho for his size.


And he's getting real low (a good thing) when he engages the OL. He gets under the pads of both Holland (6'1) and Gurode (6'4).

how did you get that pic off the website?

I cheated and used an old trick. I hit the Print Screen button to copy the screen to the clipboard and pasted it in GIMP (or photoshop, or Paint shop pro, or whatever you use) and then proceeded to crop and save.

I am far to lazy I would have referred to it as Pic 12 on the link and left it at that.

You are my hero though, because if the rest of the world was lazy like me... well then we'd all be Montrell Jones.
