The Facts:
To make room for nearly 30 rookies they're bringing in for this weekend's rookie mini-camp, the Cowboys trimmed two spots off their roster on Thursday, including 12-year veteran Richie Anderson, who underwent neck surgery last week in New York. The Cowboys also cut wide receiver Randal Williams, who was phased out of the offensive plans last year.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Anderson's release comes as no surprise. The Cowboys actually placed him on released/failed physical since he has yet to start what would be a three-to-five-month rehab even if he wanted to play this season. More suprising was owner Jerry Jones emphatic "no" when asked if the veteran fullback would join the Cowboys coaching staff, something that had been speculated the last two months. ... Williams, one of the fastest players on the team, once being clocked at 4.04 in the 40, caught only one pass last year, his only catch of his four-year career.
