Cowboys Edge Micah Parsons is just the latest in a recent trend of Cowboys stars fighting a drawn-out battle over a big-money extension. Training camp, of course, opened with no agreement. And Parsons announced late this week that he has requested a trade. So how should that impact his status -- and any other Cowboys -- in your IDP fantasy football draft? Let's dig into it ...
The Cowboys on Sunday lost DE Sam Williams to ACL and MCL tears in his left knee. The third-year, former second-round pick appeared headed for the No. 3 edge role.
Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy praised 2nd-round DE Sam Williams after the team's 1st rookie minicamp practice over the weekend. "I think we'd all agree that Sam Williams looks like a guy that was born to play professional football," McCarthy told the Dallas Morning News on Saturday. "He has the gifts. He has the physical traits." Williams set the Ole Miss single-season record with 12.5 sacks last season and then delivered a 99th-percentile speed score at 6'4, 261 pounds in pre-draft testing. Off-field concerns might have pushed him into Round 2. Williams landed in a defense that presents immediate opportunity if he proves ready to seize it. Keep an eye on Williams as a potential late-round sleeper in 2022 IDP drafts. And check out his spot in our dynasty rookie IDP rankings.
