Mark Jones cut by Titans. Pick him up?

Seriously, you'd take some guy off the street (whose position you do not even know) who just got cut over guys that you have had at Redskins Park for months. And you'd bring him on as a 6th WR (as a guy who has two passes in five NFL seasons). But he is a great return man right? Well he had 400 fewer kick return yards than Rock Cartwright last year (and a lower return average) and zero career punt return TDs. He had a better average than Randle El returning punts, yay! These "pick up this scrub?" threads are always head scratchers, but this one might take the cake.

so I guess that would you would vote no on starting a new thread for each guy released.

Rock? Oh sorry I forgot this is ROCKTheWarpath. LOL. JK, JK ....just having fun.

but seriously if we are going to pick up one return specialist off of wavers then it's only resonable we let the one go who he's replacing. Just saying. I just want to point out though Rock is rated #23 against all KR's for averaging 25.6 yrds per KR. The only bright spot is Jones can take it to the house and is an actual threat to do it on any given KR.

And 12th if you take out the 11 players on that list who had fewer than 5 returns; 9th if you use 30 KR as a cut off. But great point (reality notwithstanding).

so I guess that would you would vote no on starting a new thread for each guy released.

I was trying to be nice. I thought that "head scratcher" was better than "stupidest thread of all-time."

I don't know this guy, and yes it is the chiefs who cut him, but he started all 16 games last year, and is a 10 yr vet:

edit: maybe this was hijacking, I assume that there will be many guys released in the next 48 hours, and this thread would be a good place to discuss.

Thought about him. Solid veteran, who probably got let go more because it was a regime change than anything else. Still, at 32 he's no spring chicken. In a reserve role, might not be a bad option

In Anthony Aldridge we trust!

Ok, didn't know this thread was rolling as fast as it was. Also didn't realize Jones was a WR ...I assumed he was a RB since people like their KR's to be RB's. As for Jones not being utilized as a WR and for the most part as a KR, why are you guys complaining? Rock is a RB who is not utilized as a RB. No different. Maybe we simply cut Rock and keep Jones. The team was looking to keep 5 RB's not including Sellers. Portis, Betts, Rock, and most likely 2 of the last 3 RB's Mason, and either Alridge or Dorsey.

As for my 25.6 yrds per KR.....

I stand corrected, he was tied for 22nd.

I'll just say you're not very polite because that's nicer than telling you to kiss my ass.

He was like 6th or 7th in total yrds, but looking at average yrds per KR he was only 22 among all KR's.

The 5 RB number, as far as I understood it, included Sellers. BUT, we could still keep 4 RB (including AA or GD as the 3rd tailback), 5 WR's and a dedicated KR/ST. If so, and as D. Smith pointed out, that player has to do more than just return kicks. But, yea, they probably could reserve a spot just for that without changing the position dynamic to much.

McIntosh is worth considering. Could be a spot-starter. But maybe someone better appears in the next 24 hours.
