IRVING, TEXAS (TICKER) —Roy Williams is headed home, and he could not be happier.

The Dallas Cowboys acquired the former University of Texas star on Tuesday from the Detroit Lions for a trio of draft picks.

In exchange for Williams, a 2006 Pro Bowler who has 29 touchdown receptions in 60 career games, the Lions received the Cowboys' first-, third- and sixth-round selections in the 2009 draft.

Dallas also acquired Detroit's seventh-round pick in 2009 as part of the deal completed just prior to the trade deadline.

I'm more happy to be a Dallas Cowboy than when I got my first bike, Williams said during a conference call.
