AzSkinsFan63 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 http://www.kffl.com/gnews.php?id=674243-jets-two-wrs-waived Patrick Turner..USC 6'-5" 220 36th overall pick in 2009 by Dolphins. played with Sanchez right? Jets have a slew of receivers maybe this guy could be a gem for us. Just a thought...could be another USC Mike Williams bust I guess. But damn 6-5 220. Skins sure need some of that..

G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Lol. I thought Turner's knock was that he had no speed. So I googled his 40 time and I came across this 2009 draft day article with a quote from the great Mel Kiper: http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolphins_in_depth/2009/04/dolphins-go-with-uscs-patrick-turner-in-3rd.html#ixzz11SQPYKUV Although he was one of the top-rated receivers coming out of high school, Turner under-achieved at USC. Oh brother."He's not a good player," ESPN's Mel Kiper said. "He didn't do it at USC." But what the ****, we got Joey freaking Galloway--who came into the league when I was still in elementary school--as our #2. Give him a tryout.

dsciambi Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Well, Santonio Holmes is coming back this week, so that explains one cut. That means one of those guys has been a placeholder essentially for the first quarter of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzSkinsFan63 Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Personally I don't think you have to be extremely fast to get a jump ball in the end zone that I see each week in the NFL. Do you have great hands and can you out jump the DB's in the league is the real question. The Skins are sorely lacking in that department. I don't know his vertical though. We need a red zone stop gap until we sign a quality number 1 receiver. Heck, maybe Turner's hands suck too! But the Skins were lookig at 3 WR's last week and might as well bring this guy in instead of letting him resign to the Jets PS. Come on Arian Foster was on the frirggin Texans practice squad last season and the Skins go get Ganther..LOL And I'm not saying this guy is the next Arian Foster. I trust Bruce and Mike way more tha Vinnie and Zorn though..LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichmondRedskin88 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Bring them in for a tryout and see what they can do. Its not like Roydell and Galloway have done anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veretax Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 But, Anthony Mix was Tall? I'm like everyone else I can't see it hurting to kick his tires and hand for a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forehead Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 If Patrick Turner is who I remember, he's the guy who burned Penn State in the Rose Bowl two years ago. I remember being mildly impressed with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artmonkforHOF Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Can we make it a rule on this board that if there is a post about another team cutting 2 WR's, then there should not be another post about how much potential M Kelly & D Thomas have? Seriously, how can people stand up for these 2 bums when fans are actively seeking out other teams cast offs, who we don't want for depth but are looking to slot them into a starting role.
