It is, but the Cowboys haven't had the best luck in drafting so I don't think it matters.
I say this every year and now seems to be the appropriate time: It doesn't matter if you like this team or not, but you cannot deny the entertainment value. It is never boring around here. Such a circus all the time.
Dallas would just need to lock Williams up otherwise its horrible trade. He's a free agent soon. Though I don;t think that will be hard. He's a texas guy...former longhorn

I have NO problems with the acquisition of Roy Williams. I love it. T.O. loves it most. No more double coverage on him. we now have a LEGIT number 2 receiver who is actually better than most team's #1 receiver!!
our defense just took a HUGE hit by losing Adam Jones, now a position we were deep at is suddenly paper thin. we will reap these benefits though. Rookie CB's Mike Jenkins and Orlando Scandrick will get invaluable EXPERIENCE because of this and it will definitely show later in the season and in the future.
there is always some positive light in all the negative fog.

well you gave up the house for Roy Williams...congrats...Jerry set your team back once again
this team was built to win now. there is no more of the rebuilding process that Bill Parcells was brought it to do. no "house" was given away. Cowboys have multiple 3rd round picks and get another pick from the Titans because of Pacman being suspended. Roy Williams turns 27 in December. Tony Romo and Jason Witten are both 27 now. I see our draft picks in this next year being aimed at the O-Line.

It was a lot to give up but considering they probably would have been drafting 20th or higher next year and going after a WR, instead of getting someone who can't contribute right away they got a proven player who, with Detroit's crappy team, made the Pro Bowl in 2006.
Now if they can just get through these next 4 weeks it should be interesting. Thank God the Browns took out the Giants last night, otherwise there was no shot we'd catch them....even if now the chance is slim, it's still there.
As for Punkman Jones, Jerry already dismissed the bodyguards so Punkman is on his own....they tried to help him and he still screwed up so now if he wants to come back, he is actually going to have to help himself......ESPN's Ed Werder thinks Jerry and the Cowboys are done with him.

The Cowboys are not as bad off as everyone thinks as far as 2009 draft picks go. They still have 9:
ROUND ONE (0)
To Detroit for Roy Williams
ROUND TWO (1)
Dallas Pick
ROUND THREE (1)
Pick To Detroit for Roy Williams
Pick from Cleveland (Acquired in 2008 Draft Day trade: for Detroit 2008 R4 pick)
ROUND FOUR (2)
Dallas Pick
Pick from Detroit (Acquired in 2008 Draft Day trade: for Dallas 2008 R3 pick)
ROUND 5 (2)
Dallas Pick
Pick from Tennessee (As a result of Adam Jones 2nd suspension)
ROUND 6 (1)
Pick To Detroit for Roy Williams (Tennessee contingency cancelled as a result of Adam Jones 2nd suspension)
Pick from Miami (Acquired in 2008 Ferguson Trade)
ROUND 7 (2)
Dallas Pick
Pick from Detroit (Acquired in Roy Williams trade)
Plus we should get conditional picks because of Julius Jones and Jaques Reeves. I think this deal for Roy was a no-brainer. We don't need that many rookies next year. Roy is only 27. And Dallas signed him to a 5 year deal.

not worried about the picks at all, especially after I read that article on the 'Boys website. looks who we got in return! instead of risking a 1st round pick on a receiver, then waiting for him to get accustomed to the NFL to THEN see if he's gonna be a bust or not, we get a young, proven receiver.

and why's that? T.O. was the first to call Williams after hearing the news about the trade. T.O. loves it. you clearly hate it.
he's also bipoloar. as soon as he starts getting even less passes thrown his way, he'll implode...just like this whole team is due to in a relatively short amount of time.
have fun trying to score 45 points to win every week.

Hopefully they pull it together this month and at least beat the Rams and Bucs (beating the Giants would be sweet, too) and Romo comes back blazing.
blazing? isnt he already flaming?

I wouldn't cut him now, but after the re-evaluation and they keep him suspended, then cut him.
At least they got Tennessee's 5th round pick because of the suspension.
