Reports say that Detroit has traded Roy Williams to Dallas.
I don't get it... I thought that Millen was gone and the boneheaded decisions may stop.Quote:
The Lions will receive first-, third- and sixth-round picks in 2009 in return while also sending over their seventh-round pick, the report said, citing a source. The deal took place moments before the 4 p.m. ET trade deadline.
Williams is AWESOME and is young. The picks that Detroit will be getting back will not be very good ones (later in the rounds most likely).
This looks like an AWFUL trade.
LOLOLOLOL don't believe everything you read I guess. Just YESTERDAY the Lions said this:Quote:

Lions interim general manager Martin Mayhew said he has initiated trade discussions with other teams, but did stress that, despite media reports, wide receiver Roy Williams is not on the block. "I've told Roy that we aren't shopping him, and Roy has told me that he wants to be here," he said. "We don't think it would better for our players or our team to make that kind of move." Williams has repeatedly said he wants to stay in Detroit.
That said, with Witten/Owens/Williams I think the Cowboys might have one of the most talented receiving sets ever.
However, as a Detroit fan -- what can I say that hasn't already been said in years past? Detroit will eventually figure it out, and they still have CJ, but without a quarterback and another good receiver, if not a great RB, they won't get any offensive production.
I'm happy for Roy though, since he will be much more appreciated in Dallas.
I know.Quote:

Or Chad Pennington?Quote:

:p
Absolutely.Quote:

He'll be sick in Dallas with TO, Witten, Romo (when he gets back), and Barber.
I know... but I *thought* that the utter brain cramps *might* have ended with Millen getting canned. I guess not. Anybody who had cap space should have picked up Roy Williams for that steal (or even less if they had higher prospective draft picks).Quote:

I feel bad for CJ now. I'd hate to have him on a fantasy team with all the attention that he's sure to get from the defences now.Quote:

I also say today that the 'Skins got Shaun Alexander as a backup RB.
If they signed him for the right price, that's a good deal I think.
I think that he's still a good RB with some good mileage left on his legs.
I think that Seattle's issue with him was his cost combined with his recent injuries (i.e. lack of production for that money).
No no, I meant MYSELF actually.. like rhetorically "don't believe everything you read". That's why I was laughing so much.Quote:

Yeah, with Kitna out for the year, who knows what's going to happen with CJs stats. I hope he doesn't have a whole load of performance based goals in his contract.Quote:

I had him as a flier on my fantasy league for a couple of weeks at the beginning of the season expecting him to get signed by a team needing a skiller runner... why the skins would pick him up when they have Portis going nuts this year is a mystery.Quote:

Betts got injured last game I hear. Expected to be out for a few weeks.Quote:

I can't believe roy williams is on the cowboys now. I don't look forward to playing the cowboys, I assume romo will be back for the giants whether he's fully healed or not.
The giants loss to the browns might be the humbling they needed, it was weird hearing the media praise them.
In other news, I really hope the giants are able to get tony gonzalez. A TE that can block well and be a great receiver. Kevin Boss can catch, but he's not the receiver shockey is, and he definitely can't block nearly as well, he still needs time to develop that.
And great job pacman.
brad johnson will do an exellent job at qb for the cowboys, they have nothing to worry about. He is probably a better qb than romo anyway.Romo makes too many mistakes.But i guess we all make mistakes also so i cant really blame him for it.
doh, no TG, I haven't kept up on my football news today
Patrick Crayton was playing well too. I feel kind of bad for him now, guess he is more suited as a 3rd receiver though.
Gonzalez sounds like he's pissed. He is at the end of his career and apparently thought that a trade was a sure thing for him.
And Pacman is an idiot. The guy had a new chance at life in the NFL and has blown it. More often than not... this seems to be the norm with these troubled players.
I think it is a great deal for the Lions. A 1, 3rd and a 6th. That is a good if not great trade and will help them rebuild. A low 1st will be cheaper and thirds are gold. What would Williams do for you until next year? With draft picks, you can rebuild your team for the future.

They are gonna redo his contract, and have a ton of cap space tied up at receiver. And a very weak draft next year. The should have made a trade for a corner if anything, they must have know Pacman was gonna get suspended, and Newman is already out. Plus the other Roy Williams is coming back, so that alone makes there pass defense much worse.Quote:

LOL @ Dallas. Its going to be an interesting week for them. "Get your popcorn ready"....lol
Its like Pacman said..."Dude...its the Rams..."
It's good to see the cowboys in shambles, I'm wondering how long it's gonna be before TO rips into brad johnson.
The Gmen didn't have the greatest looking win today, but I'll take any W. They have to get out of this slump they're in
Lol, what slump??:p I'd trade records with you in a second.
Holmgren, just resign now. You've obviously given up, and you aren't doing anyone any favors by sticking around. And take your coordinators with you.
Let the rebuild... begin!
Well I want to b*tch that Roy didn't touch the ball today (and destroyed my fantasy week, really, since I could've played Ahman Green in my flex position for the points I need) but TO only got 20 yards or something anyways.
A truly disappointing showing of the best offense in the league.
hahahahaahhaahDALLAShahahahahahahahahahsuckershahahahahahaha haha
Should be a good game tonight between the Broncs and Pats. Pats are goin down.
jerry jones needs to leave dallas now, he obviously has ruined the cowboys. All the people in dallas already know that its his fault.Dallas will never win another super bowl under jerry jones. Dallas may make the playoffs this year but they will lose in the first game just like always.
Dallas is the most mentally week team i have ever seen. As much talent as anyone, but you slap them in the face, and instead of slapping you back they cry like a bunch of sissy's. there coach makes it it worse because he seems afraid to be at all critical of anything they do. I heard Nate Newton talking and he said after the blocked punt in which they lost the game and there punter for the season, Jimmy Johnson would have cut someone on Monday. I don't think a coach like that would work now, they are to far into the season to do anything drastic like that. They would probably mutiny lol.
lol ;)Quote:

Dolphins certainly look like a rejuvenated team this year.
