TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions
Apparently, it doesn't take Terrell Owens(notes) to cause a receiver controversy in Dallas -- all you need is a trade in which Jerry Jones got fleeced by the Detroit Lions, one maddeningly underachieving diva, and an undrafted free agent that came out of nowhere to put up two of the finest performances at his position in recent memory. The diva in question is Roy Williams, the ex-Lions receiver who hasn't come close to fulfilling the price Dallas paid for him -- first-, third-, and sixth-round picks in 2009, plus a seventh back in 2010. Through Week 8 of the 2009 season, Williams has 14 catches for 249 yards and two touchdowns. He's fourth in receiver productivity on the team, behind Jason Witten(notes), Patrick Crayton(notes), and some guy by the name of Miles Austin(notes), who has put up individual-game performances of 250 and 171 receiving yards in the last month. Austin is getting his first starts this season, and he's making the most of it. The same cannot be said of Williams,...

His first problem is that he is not a team player. You always see him wearing his Longhorn cap when interviewed. He thinks he is still in college, but he really didn't do crap there either. Just shut up and catch the ball, you idiot.

I would be digruntled a bit, too. He's getting some crappy passes thrown his way, but he's also dropped a few. If they DO start clicking, the rest of the league better look out. They won't know who to cover.

Williams: 'I'm not T.O.'
One day after suggesting that Tony Romo was to blame for his lack of production, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Roy Williams said he's no Terrell Owens.
"I'm not a T.O., or I'm not trying to be a T.O.," Williams told reporters Wednesday in Irving. "I don't know why people are trying to put me in that category, because I'm happy to win. I've said...
Roy Williams Will Not Have You Mistaking Him for TO, Thank You
I don't know what it is about sports that makes us enjoy the valleys of our rivals almost as much as our own teams' peaks.

Roy Williams: ‘I’m the Number One Receiver’

Handling Seattle's pressure, preparing for Philly
