We already know that the Cowboys released T.O. Now, Roy Williams has also gotten the axe. I guess you can get the rumor mill turning again as to whether he'll draw any interest from the Eagles. Although Williams isn't certified to do so much as carry Brian Dawkins' jock, another hard-hitting safety would be welcome as there are currently only two on the active roster. However, his diminishing skills in pass coverage may keep the Eagles disinterested. A team like the Lions would be a perfect fit for Roy.
