Newsbreakers

June 15, 2008
Former offensive line coach Jim Colletto was promoted to offensive coordinator in place of the departed Mike Martz, and it's important to note that the changes in Detroit will be drastic. The playbook will be cut by 50 percent and the running game, not the aerial attack, will be the focus. This will affect the number of targets that No. 1 wide out Roy Williams will garner.

Our View:Colletto will keep some of Martz's three receiver passing scheme in his playbook, but lining up to pass the ball on first down and neglecting the run game won't be the M.O. of the ex-offensive lineman. Williams should be considered a fringe starter in traditional formats.

June 12, 2008
Detroit Lions wide receiver Roy Williams does not want to be part of the group of NFL receivers who are making threats and demands because of unhappiness with their contracts, and vows to report to training camp on time, according to the Detroit News. "Don't put me in that mix," Williams said Thursday. "I'm a different type of guy. I don't want to be the guy who has a problem. I do what I'm told. I've always cooperated with the Lions, done my part trying to help this team win. I'll continue to do that."

Our View:Williams has been the subject of several offseason trade rumors, and the 2008 season is the last year on his current contract. He will make a total of $5.8 million in base salary and bonuses. In the day and age of diva receivers, it’s nice to hear that Williams will honor his contract and report to work.

June 4, 2008
Roy Williams reported to the Lions' OTA on Wednesday, according to the Detroit Free Press. He said, "I’m an OTA guy. I want to be here."

Our View:Williams stated that he failed to attend last week due to bad weather in his hometown, and missed Monday's workout due to a scheduling error. His absence had nothing to do with him wanting a new contract.

May 8, 2008
Roy Williams is entering the final year of his rookie contract and commented on his trade talk, according to ProFootballTalk. Williams said, "Just from listening to everything. But then I listened to Coach Rod Marinelli saying I wasn’t going nowhere, so that reassured me that I wasn’t going anywhere. Marinelli just called me one time in March. He said, ‘It’s done. You’re not going nowhere. I don’t think it was zero percent chance I wasn’t going anywhere. I think if somebody would have come with something that could have benefited the Lions, I think I would have been out of here. I don’t think I’m gone next year, either. I think they’re going to slap me (with franchise tag). I think this place can win, man. I don’t know what’s the problem, what’s been the problem. We got a little taste of it last year at 6-2. But that was last year, man. People are asking, ‘Can we learn from that?’ No, we can’t learn from that. That was a whole different ballclub last year."

Our View:Williams also said that he believes the Lions might apply the franchise tag to him in 2009, to prevent him from leaving via free agency. If he stays in Detroit, he and Calvin Johnson will be the most dynamic receiving tandem in the NFC.

April 29, 2008
Cowboys' Owner Jerry Jones said that substantial deals aren't usually made after the draft, but he made it clear that he is ready to listen to all trade offers regarding top receivers Roy Williams, Chad Johnson, and Anquan Boldin, according to FanNation.

Our View:Williams was believed to be the most likely candidate of the "big three" to join the Cowboys heading up to the draft.
