IceDragon38 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 While it would be nice to see punt returns actually reach double digits more often, it just wouldn't work out for the Skins. Add yet ANOTHER WR, then what do you do with Rock? You can't cut him because it would hurt RB depth. I suppose we could cut Thrash....but the guy is an incredibly hard worker....hell he was the first WR to actually catch a TD pass last year.

flexxskins Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 If we could get Parrish for a 5th and maybe trade Randle El for a 4th or 5th, that would be the perfect senario IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdarugar Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 5th rounder for Parrish? Do it. Do it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftCoast Skinz FAN Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Natural fit? What is so natural about a small, not-that-good receiver and the Skins? That would make our receiving core average height around 5' 9"*? * Not sure the actual height, just making a joke!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose we could cut Thrash....but the guy is an incredibly hard worker....hell he was the first WR to actually catch a TD pass last year. Cut Rock. Love him to death, but he doesn't add to our RB depth. The writing is on the wall. Bring in two RBs and a returner. The team is looking to upgrade from Rock. I think ideally the team would like Parrish to be the explosive returner and hope one of the young backs can not only beat out Rock, but maybe Betts too. I think the Skins recognize Rock is very replaceable and Betts is old, not that productive, and overpaid. The CFL guy and Aldridge are here for the chance of finding a better, more explosive option at number two. A backup RB won't get more than about 10 touches in a game. So it is important for your number two to be able to take one of those 10 touches for 50 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernie5 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Would love to get Parrish for a 5th. To quote Ken Beatrice, I'd make the deal twice. It's a no-brainer. Add speed and flexibility to the offensive sets and an actual punt returner? For a 5th? Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rk3025 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Will he work out overtime with the quarterback like TE Cooley? he's a speedster, and a PUNT RETURNER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flexxskins Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 as a punt returner...and slot receiver.Trade Randle El. Recoup that 5th rounder, maybe even get a 4th for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk4theHall81 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Exactly this guy would fill a huge need at punt returner and kick returner. He is a game breaker. I would have no issue at all picking him up for a 4th or 5th. No need for him at reciever but as a returner he is awesome. Thank you, at least someone on here knows something about football and not just Colt Brennan and Chris Cooley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuchip703 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Please don't waste yet another draft pick on the WR position. Have patience to let the 3 you took last year develop. It takes time in the NFL for that to happen. Also takes your QB being able to stand up. Draft OL please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holmester Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 According to PFT (i know) Roscoe Parrish is back on the trade block and we are one of the likely landing spots. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/09/21/roscoe-parrish-is-on-the-trade-block-again/ Personally, I think the kid is electric and would be a huge upgrade over ARE on punt returns and a slight upgrade over Rock on kick returns. Not sure what I would offer for him. Have at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NastyBoy Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 A decent returner, too. I can't see sacrificing a 5th for him, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holmester Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 A decent returner, too. I can't see sacrificing a 5th for him, though. I think he could be had for a 6th or 7th. Vinny is pretty good with those picks though so I am not sure if I would want to give one up. Marko and Horton in consecutive years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what I would offer for him. Have at it. Here is why I bumped. I maybe should have started a new thread since this is not the same report as the original one that is in the OP. I just didn't feel a PFT rumor was worthy of its own thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
