Roy Williams To Skins Heating Up?

Roy williams, one year left? You mean in his contract right? not his career

Obviously

when you look at it we are a DB, or DE priority team right now. The Cowboys, too need some help on defense. With T.O. and us with ARE and Moss, I just cannot see anyone other than the Eagles end up with Roy Williams. WR for them is priority #1 and their offer will be higher. I am in no way saying we couldnt use Williams. I would be moderately happy if we let go of a #2 pick for him. A WR is a need for us right now but I really hope we use that #1 on some defense and save a draft pick or a draft pick trade for a WR later in the week.

Being a Texas native...I can see the Cowboys having the edge over the Eagles and us if we all offer equivalent compensation for Roy...So we would most likely have to go above & beyond his actual value to win the bid...you can forget about that 4th rounder BS

Oh man, the Redskins fan base is going to go crazy over this. I don't think it's to likely so I won't get my hopes up however if he can stay healthy then it would be a great pickup for the team.

I would like to keep our draft choices for a change. I don't think we have anything to gain in a bidding war.

Roy Williams (the Detroit one)

Getting a lot of emails about the latest rumors of the big WR getting dealt. Now, if he was on the market, I have no doubt the Skins would pursue him in earnest given their feelings for the thus-far un-obtainable Chad Johnson. But from what I gathered today making calls on the drive up to Philly to cover the Caps, he's not being actively shopped.

Teams are calling but spoke to someone today who was in contact with the Lions who was told Williams is not on the block. Perhaps the right offer comes along, but as of this instant I don't see it happening. Things have a way of heating up the 24-48 hours before the draft so we'll keep an eye on it.

Did anyone hear? Calvin Johnson is a junkie!~~~~

Well not really, but he did admit that he used a good amount of pain killers to get him through the season last year. Personally I'm kind of glad we didn't give up our draft this year to get him last year.

I wouldn't take him cause of his age and what we would have to pay to get him.........
I hear he has issues...........
He would more then likely come in here and damage our cohesiveness......
I hear he's a primidana........
I heard he attacked one of his coach's.........

I hope we just go with the draft thingy cause no one appears to want a talented, proven, vetran at this point. We prefer to call it re-building and starting fresh....perhaps we can get a talented, unproven, rookie to blame when things go wrong.

I almost forgot...........I hear it has everything to do with him wanting more money too.
