NIGHT STALKER Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Just asking? Last season, just before he got hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Nope. It's honestly going to be hard watching Leon Washington wear another uniform. I will always love him, but will always remember his ignorant agent and his cheap wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Leon says he's been clear to run in a straight line (not permitted to cut yet). This is a gamble for the Seahawks, but a reasonable one. They gave up a 5th rounder for a player they don't know who can return to old form and is potentially an UFA the following year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE ILK Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I loved Leon and was really hoping things worked out for him here, but at this point it was really risky. He's recouping, aging and it did not look like we could get him re-signed. He was an amazing big play player, but at the same time he was limited in his role here and that makes him easier to replace than other guys on the team coming up for new contracts. I understand why they traded him, and hope we drafted a good candidate to replce him in McKnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachEY Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Did Leon Washington have any ligament damage? Nope. Training camp is not far off. Ligament damage or not, seems like he's still not ready, and there are no guarantees he will be. Ignoring the idea of him 'getting back to form'. Gotta be honest, I did like Leon, but I also like that this team is finally making what seem like football moves, and not sentimental ones. We made the AFC Championship game without Leon Washinton, he was mostly ineffective to start the season before he got hurt. The guy is on a peg-leg right now, this was absolutely the right move, even if it was not the popular one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHT STALKER Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Here's the question I never seem to have answered concerning LW. Does anyone know of another RB who had a compound fracture like LW. Had a permanent steel rod put in and then went on to play at a high level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 But, he is starting to run in a straight line. What more do you want from a RB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey CP's going for his 3rd comeback player of the year award in 6 years. Leon may beat him out, but he still would have probably left us anyway.

THE ILK Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Much easier to come back from a clean break of the bone then it is a torn ACL.I think Leon will return to form and play well, but I doubt we would have been able to keep him. The Jets were proactive on this, either way I can't bash them for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Much easier to come back from a clean break of the bone then it is a torn ACL. Even if the guy just took the season and offseason camps off for contract reasons or to care for a family member there would be concerns about his ability to come back at the same level. Leon hasn't been able to work out or run until very recently and still can't cut. If you are unable to run for 6-7 months you can consider your comeback a question mark.

SenorGato Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 He broke his leg...Who doesn't recover from a broken leg? They traded him because of the contract, possibly his age, and because the team is being rebuilt in the image of TRexgenius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garb Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Yeah, especially since we may move him to running back. An injury sustained in the season that prevents you from running in April should be a little concerning, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE ILK Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 An injury sustained in the season that prevents you from running in April should be a little concerning, no?Sure if he was not on target, or if he was going to miss part of training camp. I just don't see that happening now, so while it's concerning, I'm not as worried about it as I would be with Leon. They both have to run, but Leon's running was more of his bread and butter than Sanchez's. Stop trying to hog all the sunshine by sending storm clouds my way. It's not like he's walking around NY with a boot on his foot or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Leon says he's been clear to run in a straight line (not permitted to cut yet). This is a gamble for the Seahawks, but a reasonable one. They gave up a 5th rounder for a player they don't know who can return to old form and is potentially an UFA the following year. Don't forget they did get a 7th rounder too.

Did you forget that the reason he isn't running is because he had surgery in late February? You're trolling nonsense makes it sound like he got injured during the season and hasn't run since. He was running with the injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a permanent steel rod put in and then went on to play at a high level? Darren Sproles. Both are pretty much the same exact players. I've seen Sproles, Derrick Ward and even TO listed as guys coming back from similar injuries, but I don't think any of them had a compound fracture. I'm pretty sure Sproles didn't because they thought he had a high ankle sprain before the x-rays. I don't think that any of us thought Leon only had an ankle sprain.
