I don't understand the Terrance Williams love

[5Stars]

I think maybe he was a bad draft pick. A Jerra pick, as usual. He does not know how a draft works.

Think about it? The kid has not even scored a TD!

Sarcasm?? I think he is going to be a good player. He also seems to be a good down field blocker already

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Agreed. Too early to judge his full potential, and as Bum Phillips said, "Potential means you haven't done it yet".

BTW, gave you a "like" just for that Jim Morrison avatar.

Thanxs. And a like for you.

 

[StarBoyz83]

I like williams! I think he'll be a solid wr in a year or 2

 

[Galian Beast]

But in GAMES he does nothing and Harris balls. Ok man.

One player plays primarily with the 1s and the other plays exclusively with the 2s...

Not to mention you're talking about a very small sample size given our backup QBs inability to push the ball downfield

 

[BrassCowboy]

like others are saying, Harris is not competing with Williams, he ultimately is competing with Miles for the slot. Williams is after the #2 spot

That isn't exactly accurate.

What you have is the X Y Z

Normally you're #1 and #2 are the X and Z

That's Dez and Miles

When you move a Y out there, Miles slips into the Y, and Williams becomes the Z.

The #2 Y is Cole Beasley. The #2 Z is Terrance Williams

Harris is the #3 Y, which ultimately makes him the 5th receiver.

 

[blackbull]

Harris abused honey badger. Just backups indeed bro

 

[Zekeats]

I could see it from both sides but in defense to TWill he gets open by a couple of steps with ease. That one catch he had for a first down Orton for whatever reason even hesitated his throw and TWill was still wide open. He will be a player for years to come and I love Harris too. He always looks like he is in beast mode with those dreads.

 

[CATCH17]

You can say Harris is average or whatever but that guy is tough to stop after he catches the ball.

The #2 Y is Cole Beasley. The #2 Z is Terrance Williams

Harris is the #3 Y, which ultimately makes him the 5th receiver.

So now Harris is the 5th receiver.
Ok

 

[RastaRocket]

APPARENTLY, he's beaten out Harris.....based on what?? Harris plays the slot, Williams plays outside..

They are battling for the #3 spot, not the slot or outside. Austin can play outside and Harris in the slot or Austin can play slot with Williams on the outside.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

So now Harris is the 5th receiver.
Ok

Is that hard to believe for you?

 

[RoyTheHammer]

What do you guys think Tony was telling Williams after that pass interference in the 2nd quarter?

"Listen, guy.. stop getting wide open past your man.. you're making me look bad when i over/underthrow those balls to you."

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I don't see why Harris can't play the outside to be honest. I just feel like you have to get Harris on the field as much as possible because he makes plays for this team. Sure he doesn't have 4.2 speed and he's not 6'3 but the guy is a contributor.

The guy doesn't have the side or speed to excel on the outside. His best spot is in the slot, where he is well behind Miles Austin, and behind Cole Beasley.

Dez Bryant is our best receiver - makes him #1
Miles Austin is our 2nd best receiver - makes him #2
Terrance Williams is our 3rd best receiver - makes him #3
Cole Beasley is our 2nd best slot receiver - makes him #4 If Austin is hurt, Beasley replaces Austin in the slot. If Williams is hurt, Austin kicks back to the outside, and Beasley replaces Austin in the slot.

Dwayne Harris is our 3rd best slot receiver - makes him #5

 

[kevm3]

Harris is better than both Beasley and Williams at the moment.

Agree, Harris is in a bad situation. Beasley has him beat in that backup slot position. He's good depth, but he'll never be a star here in Dallas.

This is what I am not getting. Why is Williams our 3rd best receiver? What has he done to warrant that? Andre Holmes was more productive in the preseason last year.

Not the size you would prefer on the outside, but could do in a pinch.
His speed is very similar to Williams'.
I like that group that you listed.
It's pretty diverse.
However the coaches want to play them is fine with me.
I do not think they have made that determination yet, so assumptions on who is 3, 4, or 5 are premature.
