nj meadowlands Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Just heard that Willie Parker is "not a lock" to make the Skins final roster. If he gets cut, is he worth a look to add RB depth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say no unless one of our current trio gets injured. No need to carry 4 RB's on the active roster when we have Chauncey Washington and Danny Woodhead available for depth purposes on the practice squad.

JiFtheOracle Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Seems like it would be adding another big question mark to a backfield filled with question marks. Guy has been injury riddled the past couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbro22 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'd rather sign some UDFA than an old vet who can't make a team at the running back position anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Unless one of our backs get hurt there is no reason to look elsewhere. If we keep a #4RB it's going to be Woodhead, who can also be the #6 WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visajets Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Willie Parker is a far better insurance policy than Danny Woodhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Willie Parker is a far better insurance policy than Danny Woodhead. Probably true, but if the Redskins cut him, he'll be readily available for us if one of our backs gets hurt. I don't foresee a scramble to sign this guy if he can't even make the roster of the worst NFC East team. I'd probably prefer to see what Chauncey Washington can do than a washed up one-year wonder like Parker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude had over a thousand yards 3 years in a row and has always been able to rip off the home run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistalava Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Question for the brain-trust: Ya think there might be a reason the Skins dump Parker and keep and equally washed up Portis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 One yr wonder? Dude had over a thousand yards 3 years in a row and has always been able to rip off the home run He had only 7 TD's (rushing and receiving) combined in 2 of those years you speak of. I consider the 2006 campaign (1494 yds, 16 TD's) his one great year, and since then, his numbers have been on a steep decline. He USED to be able to break off the big run, but hasn't in a while. His longest run since 2006 has been 34 yards, and as he's getting ready to turn 30 in November, I doubt he'll be breaking any 76-yarders anytime soon, even if he is running behind our line.

Falcon63 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Either way you look at it, he would be a GREAT #3/4 option. Joe McKnight is a rookie, so we don't know how he'll pan out. And if we're looking to win it all next season, I'd much rather have Willie Parker as my #3 and Joe McKnight as my #4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 willie parker, LJ, clinton portis and rumors the skins are interested in westbrook.... that's a nucleus for a kick ass fantasy team.... in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
