We NEED this guy.

Nah, he's going to Texas now that Major Applewhite is in the fold, Hook 'Em!...;)

Ill take Stallworth if the price is right...I love his effort after the catch..He all ways seems to be throwing a DB forward while gaining an extra 5-6 yards.

I absolutely concur with needing more speed.
We also need another good Wr period.

I would not at all be reluctant to add both a speed WR like Berrian and still draft a 1st round WR.

We draft late enough that we aren't getting some Calvin Johnson type who scouts drool over. We would be getting a guy who has some type of con.

If we went Berrian or a pure speed guy in FA we could draft the best all-around WR. If we have to give up a late first for Roy Williams then it becomes tougher to draft a WR until day 2 and that means hoping you get lucky or hoping for a special teams guy out of it.

Roy Williams would be hugely interesting to me because he would be so happy here. He loves Texas and would eat up single coverage. He is the heir apparent to T.O. as soon as he signs ans WR's tend to take a bit to develop but he has had that time. My Dad was willing to trade both firsts for the guy... yikes!!! But I'd trade either 1st rounder to get it done. I'd certainly trade the 2nd and 7th the Pats traded off for Welker.

The Roy Williams "rumor" may have some legs after all. I saw an article from the Free Press discussing the possibility that Williams may be dealt pre-draft.

I would love to trade for him either with Dallas' 1st rounder #29 or Dallas' 2nd rounder and a 6th. With the possiblity existing that MBIII will re-sign to a long term deal, I don't think Dallas needs to spend a 1st on a RB, especially with the depth at the position available in the later rounds. Go CB with Cleveland's pick and trade for a starting WR with Dallas' pick in the 1st (Roy Williams). 2nd round grab a RB like Jamaal Charles or Chris Johnson to complement MBIII.

On the other hand, look how smart the Pats were to get Wes Welker for a 4th & a 7th. That's called smart scouting. Of course the Pats played Welker twice a year so they got a chance to carefully study him.

It was a 2nd and 7th for Welker.

And a 4th for Moss.
