Roy Williams, anybody?? Anybody?!?

I actually like Roy Williams as a person. IMO he never seemed like he meshed well with the whole Dallas group of players. Its true that he is horrible in coverage as a safety, kind of what I would expect Davis to be like if they didn't switch him to LB. I wouldn't mind seeing him brought in as a backup if the money wasn't too high. Of course right now there is no money at all to spend so I doubt that even happens.

Overall, Williams was way over rated a few years back. I think that left a bad taste with some. But he isn't as bad as some have made him out to be. Being over rated doesn't mean you have no skill at all. The guy made three pro-bowls so to say he flat out sucks is a bit over the top IMO.

      Canales and Mike White

      Yes. Morgan and Canales are too far in to tank. They have to show progression. And to finish 5-12 or 6-11 after starting 4-3 will almost certainly get them fired. Hooker gives you very little chance to win.

      Seth Walder: Regrading 8 trades from the 2024 NFL trade deadline

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      WR Jonathan Mingo to the Cowboys Dallas Cowboys got: WR Jonathan Mingo, 2025 seventh-round pick Carolina Panthers got: 2025 fourth-round pick Trade date: Nov. 5 Original grade for the Cowboys: D+ New grade for the Cowboys: F Original grade for the Panthers: A New grade for the Panthers: A Sometimes trades seem inexplicable because we don't have all the information (see Johnson, Diontae). But sometimes a team simply made an inexplicable choice. That's the case here. At the time of this deal, the Cowboys were 3-5 and quarterback Dak Prescott had just suffered a hamstring injury that would eventually cost him the rest of the season. That doesn't prevent them from making a deadline deal, but the return should have been great. It wasn't. Mingo's numbers at the time of the trade were rough: 0.8 yards per route run over the first season and a half of his career and, at the time of the deal, an open score that would have ranked 110th out of 111 wide receivers had he played enough to qualify. It turns out those numbers were a sign of what was to come. Mingo managed five receptions for 46 yards ... over eight games with the Cowboys. He has been on injured reserve because of a knee injury and has yet to play this season. There's nothing wrong with taking a swing on a young player who hasn't lived up to his draft stock. It's just that the price was way too high. And that was especially true considering how little the second half of last season meant for Dallas. Carolina deserves credit for recognizing the value of the offer and cutting their losses -- getting a fourth- and seventh-round swap for their 2023 second-round pick was a gift.
