Re: Washington downgraded – Ruled Out

Why even keep this guy on the active roster? IMHO, he belongs on IR.

Man, they just can't catch a break.

I'm changing my pick, Panthers 60-Patriots 3

Two totally wasted roster spots: Washington and Bequette.

I am not sure at what point you should give up on him and IR him but I know I want him returning kicks instead of Blount. If he can't get healthy he can't do it and there has to be a free agent who could help more somewhere else or even a returner.

You think we will score 3 points? Remember our starting field position is going to probably be the 1 or 2 yard line without Washington :stars2:

Vereen on IR with him on the roster makes little sense

I have to assume they see him as an asset in the playoffs when field position is going to be even more important. If you flash back to the 2013 AFC championship game they really struggled in the return game McCourty returned 4 kicks for an average of 22.3 yards and Welker had 4 punt returns for 14 yards. We had drives that started at our own 9 yard line, 16 yard line, 20 yard line and 2 drives that started at the our own 21 yard line.

Start
NE20
NE21
NE33
NE47
NE21
BAL43
NE9
NE25
NE16
NE29
NE40
NE33

If he can help with that I have no problem with his being here, but I don’t think they had to leave him on the roster they probably could have left him as an UFA and signed him when he was healthy but maybe they were concerned about the Seahawks scooping him up when Harvin was out.

Yeah, let's swap Danny Woodhead for Leon Washington. That's a great idea.

Re: Washington downgraded – Ruled Out

must be nice to make all that money hanging out in a hot tub

True, true Washington has it good, but Jake Bequette doesn’t even have to worry about getting waterlogged in the hot tub.

Washington = :bathbaby:
Bequette = :couch2:

New England Patriots: Shane Vereen

Great idea unfortunately the trade deadline has passed :tsk:

New England Patriots: Shane Vereen

Would have been a "touche" moment, but how's that working out for NE?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Re: Washington downgraded – Ruled Out

It's okay, he'll be unveiled in the Denver showdown :rocker:

At least by keeping him on the roster this long it seems BB is taking the KR portion of the game seriously. It does pay to have a legit threat back there, hopefully he eventually suits up.

Re: Washington downgraded – Ruled Out

With Vereen back, they aren't going to dress six RBs (if you count Devlin). Washington inactive was a given. I wouldn't be surprised if Bolden is inactive too.

If he was healthy he'd be active to return kicks otherwise what is here for?

Re: Washington downgraded – Ruled Out

The only reason he is not on IR is they are hoping for a late season comeback and being an asset during the championship round... Blount has done a pretty good job.. not stellar, but steady.

Not bad. The Pats are 7-2 and in pretty good position for a first round bye. I love how people biatch about this team like they are 2-7.

Danny Woodhead sure did help the Chargers beat Miami...oops.
