Warfish Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I agree, SJ ... Maurice Drew was rated higher, but I like Washington better Reason? I can name quite a few successful NFL backs throughout history who have been 5' 8", but how many have been 5' 6" ... I can't think of any? Joe Morris of the Giants? Or was he 5'4"?

Green Jets & Ham Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Joe Morris of the Giants? Or was he 5'4"? LOL!!!!!!!!!! Nah man, he wasn't 5' 4" ... don't get carried away But you may have found a 5' 6" Guy who did have plenty of success ... I commend you for that, war ... though Morris was a stocky SOB, much better built than Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 bye bye overpaid BLAYLOCK... How about bye bye overpaid, overrated, and quickly declining Curtis Martin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smizzy Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Leon Washington, today, right now, is a better HC than Herman Edwards. I want this guy to be a productive player in the worst way. POTW NOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preston Howley III Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Whats Cedric Houston's status as far as his car accident/injuries are concerned? So you guys think Cedric can be a short yardage back? We need a back that can punch it in on 4th and goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyHector Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Funny... I was just talking to this guy at work and brought up the fact that Leon was the compensatory pick for Herm. As "trades" go, that one rivals the Herschel Walker deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Weaknesses: Durability is a major concern. He has never carried a full load. Has had trouble staying healthy and shoulder injuries seem to be long term concern. He's undersized. Runs hard and is tough, but he's not a powerful runner. Won't push the pile or break a lot of head-on tackles in the NFL. Lacks ideal height and can be overmatched at times as a pass blocker. Has trouble sustaining some blocks and will whiff occasionally when he tries to cut the LB's legs out. He has above average speed but he's not an elite home-run threat. He's also not overly elusive and he won't make many defenders miss in space. Also, while he is powerful for his size, he lacks the ideal size of a fulltime load-carrying north-south runner. Is that so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 class, this is why you always take experts opinions on the draft with a grain of salt; "He has above average speed but he's not an elite home-run threat" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Robinson paved the way for making NJ "Hunter Safe". If it wasn't for the work Robinson did in conjunction with the NRA, no way Favre ever comes here.
