Fantasy Impact:
Butler's name has been buzzing around the Cowboys' facility this week. Rumors are flurrying that the three-year veteran is being groomed to be Terrance Williams' heir apparent as Dallas' No. 2 wideout of the future. Wiliams is entering his contract year and the team is anticipating his departure during the 2017 offseason. With Dez Bryant sidelined and coming off of last year's injury woes, Butler appears to be next in line to step up on the outside in the event of any unforeseen setbacks. He could be a player worth monitoring as a deep sleeper in the upcoming fantasy football campaign as the Cowboys are expected to once against be an offensive powerhouse in 2016.
