I thought that a 1st, 3rd and a 6th was too much too until I thought a little more about it.

In 2009 the Cowboys have two third round picks and two 6th round picks from deals done during the last draft.

So they surrendered a first rounder for Williams. And to justify that you just have to ask what WR would be available and worthy of a first round pick in the 2009 draft?

Essentially, Dallas used thier first round pick on a WR. They just did it in October instead of April is all.

I know, three picks is a lot, but I am just trying to put it in perspective is all.

Let me say congrat's........thats a Nice Move, no matter who got him.......but yall do have other needs, to address, like at CB and OL....but Roy Will keep everyone in the Division honest........its time for Smoot, Rogers and Springs to step up.........RIGHT NOW

For all those out there that are scared and worried about this, ask yourself... WWBD?

What Will Blache Do?

Why are you more scared then he is? Do you think Carlos is cowering in the corner over this? Is Landry hiding under the bed?

Roy Williams. Big deal. If this is that big of a game changer, then we are in real trouble.

Everyone chill out and let Greg and his men do their job.

We'll play Redskin Defense... allow 17 pts... win by 3.

What more can you ask for?

The Cowboys are so stupid. This isn't going to help them. Their talent wasn't the problem. Their leadership is terrible and that all starts with their coach. Wade Philips is not a good coach. He is not going to be able to turn this team around when things start going badly.

Jerry Jones is just trying to buy a Super Bowl and its not going to work... at least not this year anyway.

And if I'm not mistaking this is a picture of the Safety Roy Williams not the newly acquired Reciever.

The Dallas Cowboys added another big name to their star-studded roster on Tuesday, acquiring wide receiver Roy Williams from the Detroit Lions for a trio of draft picks.

In exchange for Williams, a 2006 Pro Bowler who has 29 touchdown receptions in 60 career games (http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=international_feed/08/10/14/GRIDIRON_USA-Dallas_Williams.html#), the Lions received Dallas' first-, third- and sixth-round selections in the 2009 draft.

Its a great move for dallas. I think they will get rid of TO next year. Without TO, they have the worst WR corp in football.

While it doesn't solve their secondary problems, they're hoping he re-signs for long-term. He is definitely a capable replacement for a No. 1 WR once TO falls off.

I'm not sure why Dallas made this move. Roy Williams is so freakin overrated. Their other wr's seems to be fine. Romo is always throwing for 300 yards a game. They need help at corner.

I agree. This isn't really a great 2008 season move but it's pretty nice once TO retires.

Too bad Roy Williams was going to be a free agent after this season and they could have just signed him then
