From Dallascowboys.com

IRVING, Texas - In a bold move to inject some Pro Bowl production into a battered offense, the Cowboys acquired Detroit Lions receiver Roy Williams just before the NFL's 3 p.m. (CDT) trade deadline.

The Lions will receive the Cowboys' 2009 first-round pick, a third-round pick and sixth-round pick. The Cowboys get Detroit's 2009 seventh-round pick in the Williams trade, plus Tennessee's 2009 fifth-round pick now that cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones has been suspended at least four games for violating the league's personal conduct policy.

Williams, who has been involved in trade rumors for weeks, instantly provides a speed complement opposite Terrell Owens and a big target for backup quarterback Brad Johnson, who has been ushered into the starting lineup with Tony Romo (fractured right pinkie finger) expected to miss about a month.

Williams is scheduled to be a free agent after the season. The former University of Texas star has expressed a desire to return to his home state, and the winless Lions' decision to trade their best offensive player signals a directional shift under new management (longtime GM Matt Millen was fired two weeks ago).

Through the first six games, Williams has 17 catches for 232 yards and a touchdown. He will wear No. 11 for the Cowboys.

Woooo Hoooo! If Brad can keep us in the race, things will start to look up again when we get Romo, Felix and Kosier back. Hopefully McBriar's replacement will be adequate. And the defense should be better with Roy38 and Watkins coming back soon (OK flame away). TNew will help us out eventually. As far as Pacman...nm...I don't want to spoil the good vibes I'm feeling.

We reportedly already agreed to an extension with him.

The Detroit Free Press reported it. And perhaps more importantly, Hostile says we did.

Will Roy be ready by Sunday?

I seriously doubt it. He might play a few snaps against the Bucs, but in all likelihood, he probably won't be fully integrated into the offense until after the bye week.

Yeah. Not to mention we could probably beat the Rams with our practice squad. Is Amendola still on the PC? :p:

no link, no source, just common sense dictates he'll be one heckuva decoy at the very least. Doesn't need to know the playbook to draw coverage away from T.O.

You can see the wrinkles from the sacks Bledsoe was taking.

It looks like it might have been an Owens photo. The 1s on the jersey look exactly the same, so someone might have erased the 8 and duplicated the 1.
