Williams must produce!

The Dallas Cowboys shelled out a first, third, and fifth round draft pick for the 6’4” 211lb. Roy Williams last season. So far he has not been worth the investment.

As it turned out, acquiring Williams midseason may have done more to hurt the offense this year than it helped. He certainly didn't live up to the price the Cowboys paid for his services - two of next year's draft picks, including their first-rounder, on top of a five-year, $45 million contract extension. Williams only had 19 catches for 198 yards in 10 games with the Cowboys, off the pace Patrick Crayton had set during the first half of the season as the starting receiver opposite Terrell Owens.

Everyone hoped that playing along the side of All-Pro Terrell Owens, he and Williams would give opposing secondaries fits last year. However, with the departure of T.O., Roy is now the guy, and he has this year to prove that he was worth all of the hype, or he will be claimed a D-Town Bust.

The Boys do have a good young core of receivers and tightends in Patrick Crayton, Miles Austin, Sam Hurd, and Martellus Bennet. Jason Witten has also become Romo’s favorite target and has become the premier pass-catching/run-blocking threat among all NFL tightends. Fans tend to look beyond such potential, though, and for Roy it’s going to be the question of what have you done for me lately?

Will he produce in Big-D and live up to the hype? We will have to see when the Cowboys take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on opening day next season.

Draft Buzz in D-Town

After a disappointing end to a 2008 season. The Dallas Cowboys came in to this year’s NFL Draft providing plenty of head-scratchers. With a depleted secondary that lost five time Pro Bowler Roy Williams, everyone believed the biggest concern would be the secondary. The Boys passed up some safeties by trading down to get a larger number of picks. They had no picks on the first day and began Sunday by drafting a linebacker out of Western Illinois, James Williams. Another pick that many people are wondering about is the quarterback out of Texas A&M University Stephen Mcgee. As the seventh round of the draft ended the Cowboys tallied twelve total picks, their largest number in decades. They also totaled four players who will be battling in camp for starting positions in the secondary. A big concern going into next season according to owner/general manager Jerry Jones is the special teams. Special teams are the main reason the Cowboys drafted so many players. Throughout my football career my coaches have always told me that it is important to succeed in all three phases of the game, offense, defense, and special teams, and it also seems that Mr. Jones feels that way. The offense will look pretty much the same, and the 2009 season will be the time when Romo must quiet all critics. I'm ready to watch the Boys in silver and blue.
