Former Jets, Seahawks free agent RB-PR-KR Leon Washington now a Patriot

[deters]

To of 'em, huh? LOL. Do you really think the Patriots -- or any football team -- manages free agency one player/position at a time? Didn't you just read that Amendola was signed by the Pats before Welker left?

Relax. The Patriots have a plan for free agency that looks just like a draft board. They will sign ALL the players that fit into that plan -- at the right price and time.

This strikes me as an improvement and that is what I am told teams try to do at this time of the year.

god forbid I have some form of urgency when it comes to fixing this **** defense that has sucked so bad for nearly 6 years.

Good protection signing if Woody leaves and Demps gets dumped. Another guy that has some background in the offense (2006-2008 w/ NYJ w/ The Rat)

I think you need to turn off the computer and find a new hobby. This is a game. It's entertainment. If you're not having fun, change the channel.

In the last six years have you known for sure your team could not win the SB? Plenty do. We don't. Our guys know what they are doing. Just remember that the guys on the other 31 teams are also getting paid and they are trying to win that Big Game as well.

But my point was that it's TWO not TO. Put down any sharp objects. Step away from any open windows. Relax. This is FREE AGENCY and the Patriots are going to be fine.

 

[Jimke]

exact reason. sitting around with a finger up their ass picking up a KR while other teams are picking up all the quality FA's that would really help this team out.

I could give to ****s if we start at the 20 every series but I'm gonna lose my mind if our defense doesn't nut up soon and actually stop f'n up nearly every game.

Good signing because the Patriots really needed a good kick returner but
the cupboard is nearly empty at WR and CB. If Talib does not re-sign soon, the
good cornerbacks may be off the board. Same with wide receiver if the Patriots don't pay LLoyd his bonus and do not re-sign Edleman.

Urgency isn't the problem. The problem is that you're demanding that the Patriots emulate the Dolphins. If you can't understand why that's a terrible idea, then nobody here can help you.

I know they will be fine and they will make their moves but i'm just tired of the incompetence when it comes to this defense. It has been a joke for far to long and has cost us to many games.

Root for the Jets then. This team used to be bad. It's good. VERY good. Incompetent? Give Bob Kraft a call. Maybe he will give you a shot.

just because i want them to make some moves on the talented players available which are no longer and are going at really low prices too, doesn't mean i want them to whore out cash like the phins.

Excellent move! We should have gotten him after he moved from the Jets as I remember someone calling it:

Which low profile players would you pick up or trade for?

1) Peyton Hillis

2) Leon Washington since we missed out on Sproles

3) A real cornerback

4) A real cornerback

5) Another real linebacker besides Mayo (Foster?)

6) One more wr on the cheap, someone like Greg Camarillo

7) Another Free Safety

Some secondary defense from Buffalo (Wilson, Byrd)

You don't think our defense is incompetent? They are pathetic. Steve F'n Gregory was our starting GD safety! Wake up, our defense has been severely neglected for years.

Your right, but it's far to early in the offseason 2 panic about something that the team finally has the ability two fix this year. I'm sure that there are too or three Patriots hierups that aren't getting two much sleep nowadays. There's no cents in you missing your sleep to.

 

[FortressX]

Cool.
Leon can become sole holder of the TD return record he and Cribbs share right now.
Go Leon.

When Tom and the O are on the field he will be sitting with Slater I hope.

not panicking but we need to pick up some impact FA's before they are gone and all that's left is JAG's. The pool will dry up quicker than not. I don't want us to be forced to spend draft picks to get players from another team unless its a huge deal.

I'll start to be concerned if after the draft no major moves have been made. But its foolish to not snag some of these PROVEN players for the kind of coin their getting.

 

[IllegalContact]

Leon Washington a Patriot

Washington average less yards per carry last year than Woodhead.

Did they play behind the same ol?

 

[Patjew]

I have a feeling Woodhead will be back. I hope so. But if not we have two better backs in front of him. It seems like everyone is forgetting about the good players we actually have under contract.

 

[IcyPatriot]

I have to work this Leon out of my brain ... and quickly.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Love Leon the kick returner signing. Leon the running back? Just can't get that 20 yard dual sack Of LW and Brett Favre out of my head. One of the finer moments of Adalius Thomas and one of the best highlights of the Jets suck film room. Couldn't find the vid.

 

[RayClay]

So we should prohibit his use in the regular offense? The guy is disruptive. he made us look like fools on occasion. Why wouldn't we us him for a change of pace against slow linebackers?
