Knarl Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Which Cowboys receiver do you think will have greater ROS value from here on out? I picked up Williams at 9 AM last Sunday and plugged him in over the injured Megatron, to surprising results. Which one is more worth stashing for injury plugins/trade high potential?

darin3 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Well one guy can't keep off the trainer's table with constant hammy issues, the other one's name is Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowboutthemCowboys Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Well one guy can't keep off the trainer's table with constant hammy issues, the other one's name is Williams. this. just don't forget either is going to be no better than 3rd on the team behind Dez and Witten most every week. Romo's not going to be heaving it every wk like he did against Denver obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiseman155 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Yeah neither will see major work unless it's a really tough week. This week might be more a DeMarco Murray week more than a Tony Romo week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleshot Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I don't expect Austin to get healthy/stay healthy enough to be a fantasy factor. That said, Williams is only a 3rd option at best, and he did all his damage this past week on 4 targets(he caught all 4, including 2 long ones). He's not going to get bombs every week, nor is he going to catch 4 balls on 4 targets. Hell, he'll probably even run a wrong hot route again at least once and cost Romo an interception. So to answer the orginal question, I'd say neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJV Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Williams was drafted because I believe the cowboys are tired of Austin's inability to stay healthy. It's only a matter of time till they cut bait with him. I give it till the off season where they out right release him. Keep Williams.

stevegrab Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 this. just don't forget either is going to be no better than 3rd on the team behind Dez and Witten most every week. Romo's not going to be heaving it every wk like he did against Denver obviously Williams went 7/71 on 8 targets (one fumble lost) the week before, not sure I saw that Dallas game (@SD) were they throwing it a lot then too, mostly deep passes for Williams? From what I've seen/know I'd rather have Williams than Austin who cannot stay healthy. Nobody is expeting him to out perform Bryany or Witten.

stethant Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I think Williams is one of Jerrah's guys, so you should factor that in. If he plays well this weekend I'd consider him WR3 material for the ROS, regardless of what happens with Austin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to joke that he was one of Jerrah's illegimate sons. Help me out Big John, who was that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripleshot Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) Chad Hutchinson? No, he was back. Reminded me of an earlier version of Tarvaris Jackson. Quincy Carter. Edited October 10, 2013 by Tripleshot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariguas Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Sure hope is Williams, picked him up on ww to "replace" Julio. I believe Austin will be going back to the hospital constantly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowboutthemCowboys Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 fwiw Miles practiced in full last 2 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stethant Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 fwiw Miles practiced in full last 2 days I don't own him but hopefully this means he's healed up. I would guess though that he's out there even if he's not, realizing that he needs to get back in the game to 1) maintain his place in the WR pecking order, and 2) build up his resume/marketability for next year. His future salary goes down if he gets displaced by a rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron677 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 According to a doctor on ESPN who came to talk about Miles Austin, he will keep reinjuring his hamstring over and over and over because after you injure it a couple times scar tissue grows back which is much weaker than healthy tissue. The more you injure it the more scar tissue grows back and the weaker it gets. He has already injured it so many times and it will only keep getting worse and more frequent. Miles Austin's career is as good as done. Terrance Williams all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorcher Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) With Miles coming back this week how does that affect Williams. I think Williams will get much more play than Austin but what do others think? Any homer insights?

flemingd Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 They're splitting the reps that the #3 target gets. After a heavy dose of RB against a team that's been terrible defending the run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DentonTX Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Actually Williams plays on the outside. Austin has been playing in the slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennykravitz2004 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Absent of snap counts, that nice TD catch by TW last night might start swaying Romo's trust, if not already. TW went 2/2 on targets/catches, and Austin was 0/4 (and to be fair, 1 or 2 of those to MA were in the turf, throw-aways). Hard for Austin to keep/re-earn that trust when he's not in the lineup making big plays. Season is still somewhat young, and a lot can change still. But I'm glad I picked up TW after last week, and would rather have him stashed instead of Austin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Company of Heroes Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Lots of things point to TW having more value. He's caught 18 of 21 targets on the season He's one of Jerry's guys Miles didn't seem to separate much last night Miles will struggle to stay healthy I could see him having borderline WR2 upside best case.
