Why not re-sign T-Will?

[RamziD]

Yes, he drops one every now and then due to body catching, but he and Dak had chemistry this season and he can stretch the field. If he will sign a reasonable WR #2 contract, I would keep him. Don't need to create another draft need if we don't have to.

 

[AlterEgo]

I agree, I think I'd rather have TWill than Butler. I know TWill makes me yell when a ball hits him in the hands and the chest and drops it but he has more positive than negative plays. I think it's important to resign him.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

Comes down to money. I think he you have to let him go test the market and try to bring him back.

The problem is that T Will will get paid like a number 1 receiver from teams who dont have one ( Saints, Seahawks, Rams, Cardinals, Lions etc.)

There will be other WRs in FA that may take the same amount or less and be just as good. I am really interested in seeing the market for Jackson. He might set the tone to what TWill can get.

He will get 6m per year. Rightly or wrongly he will.

Sign him to a reasonable deal and were good. We can win a Super Bowl with the WR corp we have. Allowing TWill to just walk creates a hole that will need filled. I'd rather spend our off season resources on upgrading the defense specifically the pass rush and secondary. We clearly can't win a Super Bowl with what we have now on defense.

 

[TheHerd]

I don't know. After watching Adams, Cobb, and whoever else the Packers trot out besides Nelson makes me want a better #2. Those guys just seem quicker, faster, more open, better hands, more capable of big plays.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Williams and Butler, two body catchers, Dallas needs to find a legitimate number two receiver...

 

[SDCowboy]

I'd love to still have him next season, but not at the #2 spot. IMO, we can do better there.

 

[Jake]

Williams is nothing special. The Cowboys have decisions to make when it comes to contracts and the cap - you can't keep everyone. I'm more interested in keeping the offensive line together and improving the defense than I am in keeping T-Will.

 

[Cmac]

The game film on Brice should give you the answer.....TWill should return.....Brice may remain, but he ain't a #2. TWill makes more positive plays than Brice....hands down.

WR is one of the easier spots to fill in free agency... There's always a ton of guys out there.

Robert Woods of Buffalo could be a decent pickup.

i agree we should look into FA, i dont know about your pick but i wont stomp on it either. We just need a capable speedster. T will is solid but no one fears him.

I'm just throwing names out there... Just the point being there will be plenty of WR's available and I wouldn't hitch my wagon to an over-priced Williams just because he was on the team.

 

[CowboyWay]

Twill needs to go. You can easily get a #2 that is a much better WR than this guy for the same money. Twill is a #4 receiver, not a #2.

 

[Aven8]

The only plus with Twill is he never misses a game. That's about it.

Beasley is making $3.4, I don't think they can resign Williams for less than $5 a season.

 

[DK30]

Cowboys staff should clean out his locker and put his stuff in garbage bag and deliver it to his house.

A fitting farewell to a #5 receiver.

I agree. But we can't use draft capital on a WR. If we can re-sign TWill somewhere around 5yr 20 mil, 8 guar I'm on board with the OP. His trajectory for a huge signing (ala what Tavon Austin received) fell mightily this season. He's a solid WR. But if he wants 40m, he needs to look elsewhere.

I will be irate (and we all should be) if we use premium draft capital on a WR. (As an aside, Michael.)
