Curious about Kelley Washington?

[jefmblrd]

Kelley Washington's name keeps popping up on the boards as someone people would like to see the Patriots pick up in Free Agency. I don't know much about him, but his stats are not too impressive. It also says that he's played in only 12 games during the past two seasons. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2688334. I realize he's big at 6'3" 218, but what else about him makes him so desirable as a Patriot's WR?

Nothing. Hes a headcase underachiever who's production has not lived up to his perceived talent.

Did I miss something? Last I checked this guy had a decent rep, and injuries and being down on the depth chart have hurt him. Plus, he's recently said something about how he wanted to catch passes from Brady.

Ever since he was at Tenn there has always been something with him. I'm not saying hes a locker room problem. I'm saying that from a mental toughness standpoint, he can't carry #80s jockstrap.

Personally I'd prefer not to carry it myself. Does that mean I'm a head case?

Same situation at TN. The guy can't play hurt and won't rush back to help the team. Thus the reason he left TN early, didn't get along with teammates and thus basically letting Cinci send him packing.

Dillion was a nut too, but the guy played hard....except at the end in his time here.
