Unless he can runblock for himself, We don't need him.

Exactly. We can't run block, so let's not put the cart ahead of the horse.

Well, it's not uncommon to work out a veteran during the week. And especially with the Sherman Smith connection this makes sense.

If he is signed, and is activated, then it wouldn't surprise me to see him be the primary kick returner and possibly 3rd down back. He'll take touches away from Rock and Betts. That is if we sign him.

Henry's success has come from his great NFL combine in 2007. Since then he's shown to be a pretty freakish athlete but not the best running back out there.

IF we were to sign him as our primary kick returner you don't think that would sit too well with the Rock?

Trample the Elderly · 10-05-2009, 04:20 PM

About as lively as Patrick Henry.

Because we needed a backup to the backup (Mason) of our backup running back (Betts).

Now it looks like we need a backup to the backup (Alridge) of the backup (Mason) to our backup (Betts).

Either that or we have a stable full of backup running backs but none of them are worth a shit in the coaches' eyes.

Maybe he was once a punter. Not sure how you could actually take any more playing time away from Betts.

Chico23231 · 10-05-2009, 04:27 PM

Hopefully as strong as John Henry

betts has not done himself any favors recently with his boneheaded end of the game plays...add that to ineffective running when he's gotten the chances and it equals replacement (talk).

I wonder whose idea this was?

I'll give a surprising defense and say this doesn't sounds like a Vinny or Dan move but a coaching move. Sounds to me like three things. One, Portis ankle spur issues will be an issue all season. Two, the Redskins confidence in in Betts and Mason appears to be waning. Three, the suggestion likely came from Sherman Smith and Zorn went with it.
