Zen-like Todd Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/235184 5.5 sacks last year? I think he's a DE, not a DT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachey79 Posted August 7, 2003 Author Share Posted August 7, 2003 No, hes a DT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 maybe he plays both. That would be very nice for Kenny though. I think he'd be their starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Go for it! With Candidate and Morton impressing so much these past two weeks, and with Betts coming off the shelf soon, I just don't see how there's any room for Watson. Plus, with Pittman gone, Watson actually has a lot of value for Tampa Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeorama Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Awsome... I can't say I'm suprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I'll take a pash rush wherever I can get it, but he's only 280... And yes, I think it'd be the perfect place for Kenny to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thito_da_skins_fan Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 don't know much about Wyms, but i'd do it.. 5.5 sacks? Big Daddy who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeostang Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I think it would be a very smart move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 #96 Ellis Wyms, DE 6-3 279 4/12/79 2 years pro Mississippi St Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golgo-13 Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Hell, even if he came off the end instead of up the middle that would be cool with me. If he still managed to get 5.5 with all those studs in front of him on their line then he could probably get even more with us with all the extra PT. It's a good trade for both sides because we give up what we have lots of, young semi-proven runningbacks, and they give up what they have lots of, talent on the dline. Sounds like a big winner to me.

Henry Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Link please? well, if we have an extra RB and they have an extra DT then why not? 280 does seem a bit light though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, Tampa is going to trade quality depth for a guy who may be cut eventually late in the preseason. Makes alot of sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 they can get him cheaper in a trade than paying him to come in and maybe be their starter. His contract right now is peanuts. Plus, he might choose to go somewhere else....or we might keep 4 RB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTerps2002 Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I thought it sounded a little fishy.....Tampa is not going to trade a DT since Mpharland and Sapp are both free agents... Tampa is really happy woth Thomas Jones so far... His arms are bigger than Pittmans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nighthawk Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Do you smell what I smell? BS. This isn't an ESPN Rumor. It might be and ESPN Message Board rumor, where trades are made day and night. No one, I repeat, No one is going to trade for Kenny Watson. The Redskins have no leverage to trade an UFA RB who's one of 4 RB fighting for a spot on what could be a 3 man race.

Boy2Der Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 I really like the idea mainly because Wyms is in his secound year and is really good but i don't want it to come mid way season and betts, canidate and morton haven't proved anything. I think we need all the backs we can get because if are running game stinks this year were going to suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
