pjfootballer Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I can't stand Jerry Porter. He's overated as well. Johnson was my first choice during the season. He'd be my 2nd after Hackett. Moss will re-sign with the Pats and NO WAY we get Chad Johnson. Depending on what we do in FA will determine whether or not we can trade for Roy Williams (det).

morpheusmeyers Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 The one thing that concerns me about Hackett are his low season highs. In 4 years in Seattle his season best in yards is only 610. His next best is just 400. His TD best was 4, in 2006. Even Brandon Lloyd had better season highs in yardage and TD's prior to signing here. In his 3 years in SF, his career high in yardage was 733 and his high in TD's was 6 (he had 5 another year). These stats by no means suggest Lloyd is a better player than Hackett. I'm only saying that if we do sign Hackett I hope we get him for a reasonable price. Hopefully one positive that comes from the Brandon Lloyd signing is that the FO has learned a valuable lesson in the risk of overpaying for potential at the WR position in FA.

Cpt.Chaos47 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I've been talking about Bryant Johnson for weeks. The problem with the FA market is there are too many teams and too few players. Its crazy how only decent players get big money and great players get ridiculous money. A player like Bryant Johnson will get overpaid. He has alot of talent, but because of a lack of talent in FA he will get overpaid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umstew42 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 He's good, but I personally like Hackett, and he knows the offense. As long as we don't overpay, I would take either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backpack3r Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Why would we want Hackett? His health is an issue, we need to get a healthy receiver beside Santana. Your sig is over the size limit dude, change it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCJDLJ Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 SMG, I just hate to see someone get so irritated by such a trivial matter as a bad choice of words by another poster. I agree with your general thoughts but your day might have a more harmonius outcome if you can overlook some of our faults. As far as a FA WR goes most of the guys available are similar in talent and age. I think Hackett kind of stands out to a lot of us because of the way he owned Springs in the playoffs. Plus he knows the offense. In my view Porter is the more physical (stronger) of the receivers and may be a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has alot of talent, but because of a lack of talent in FA he will get overpaid. It seems as if everybody has been talked about in this thin FA market. I pretty much agree with the statements above. I would be content if we waited it out and signed him after his price goes down, but it's doubtful. How can DJ Hackett have more upside than Bryant Johnson? I'm pretty sure Seattle would love to replace Hackett with BJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooka Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 QFT.Johnson is trash. Alright, that's too harsh, but barely. He is Rod Gardner without the potential for the rare, random big game. Drops easy balls. Disappears. Does nothing to impress you, ever. Has had many chances to step up due to Boldin's and Fitz's respective injuries and failed on an epic level. Sounds pretty spot on. I like Hackett more because when given the chance to start he produces. Bryant kinda reminds me of Jerry Porter, you just assumed that his production would go up when given more opportunities on the field. DJ's price seems to be ever rising though. I thought he might come cheap, but he might land a pretty substantial deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyote4848 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 That's hilarious and I agree. I guess we should all be careful what we say unless we want to get "owned." Usually when I post here I strive to make a coherent statement and use my untapped talent as a writer to show "that something" to indicate that I'm on the cusp of being a well liked and respected poster. I feel that I have the intangibles to be a goal driven, up and comer of the first degree. A real "diamond in the rough" if you will. That said, I'd like to see the Redskins sign Jerry Porter. lol, very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[ghost]] Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 and is hungry to prove that he is a top wideout in the league. QUOTE]How do you know that? Has he called you up and told you " Mmm, I'm so hungry to prove myself." Or has he done an interview where he sounded committed to getting himself a starting spot in the league? I'm not saying he's bad at all. I'm just saying you can't say cliche's like that. I could say Limas Sweed is a Lunchpale kind of player, and an excellent character, but I don't know that for sure.
