The Dallas Cowboys made the only significant trade deadline move by acquiring wide receiver Roy Williams from the Detroit Lions for first, third, and sixth round picks in the 2009 draft. The trade wasn’t completely one-sided.. The Lions threw in a seventh round draft pick.

Williams is a good player, but I don’t think there’s a receiver in the league worth a first, third, and sixth round pick. Former Cowboy and current member of the NFL Network Deion Sanders didn’t like the trade for numerous reasons.

From NFL.com:

“Don’t like it one bit,” Sanders said. “First of all, it raises your eyebrows when a franchise gives up their best player, their best receiver. There’s a problem there. What’s the problem? I don’t understand. I’ve done my homework, checked on Roy. I don’t think Roy’s the hardest worker inside that Detroit Lion locker room that’s coming over here. Now, is he ready to play second fiddle? Because T.O. is the man in Dallas. Is he ready to do that? Is he losing speed? Can he get deep? What do they need?

“You give up a 1, a 3 and a 6 for Roy Williams when there’s a guy, Chad Johnson, who’s begging to get out of Cincinnati. I’m sure Cincinnati could accept a 1, 3 and 6….

“I smell panic, and there’s no need to panic at this time. Because this is still a good team, but I feel like Jason Garrett may have gone to Jerry Jones [and said], ‘You know what? We need another receiver.’ Tony Romo: ‘You know what? We need another receiver.’ Instead of understanding, well, Jason, they might have caught up to your offense from last year. Tony, get rid of the ball every once in a while. Let’s tell the truth to these guys. Let’s quit pacifying them.”

Deion blew up Roy Williams, Tony Romo, and offensive coordinator Jason Garrett on his way to saying he doesn’t like the deal. I agree with Primetime when he calls it a panic move. The Cowboys have enough serviceable wide receivers plus Jason Witten for the passing game to be fine. All Roy Williams adds to the team is another guy for Terrell Owens to be jealous of.
