Year_of_The_Monk Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Hanky Panky has been a surprise as of late. I wasn't big on him during the early parts of the season but all that goes away with him executing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 He can bobble whatever he wants as long as he catches the ball and puts 6 on the board. Yep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsTillIDie Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 He's developed into a really solid #2 WR. A good all-around game, though I still half-expect him to drop the ball every time he's wide open. Next year could be his true breakout season. With Davis back healthy, we'll have mismatch problems all over the field. Hopefully Aldrick Robinson can elevate his game to another level, he's a legit deep threat but still a bit of a one-trick pony. Bring Moss back on the vet minimum and he can win battles on the inside. It'd be nice if Morris can take some cues from Evan Royster and develop as a pass catcher. Hankerson has Hakeem Nicks-type potential -- they're virtually identical, from a physical standpoint. Could be a key cog in an offense that ultimately threatens to put up 40 on a weekly basis. The Redskins? Must be dreaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Leonard just like the team as a whole is coming around. All the pieces are falling into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncsuFB27 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Great game today from Hankerson. Hopefully he will build off today and become a bigger target for opposing defenses to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGloryDays Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Will Hank become the real #2 WR next year? Right now it seems like him, Moss, and Morgan kinda are all splitting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 The fall and rise of Leonard Hankerson This made me laugh. Good stuff. People need to chill with the "bobble" talk. Yeah, the one he had against the Rams was bad, but the catch he made today was just a great catch. It was in a little bit of an awkward spot, and it was at the end of his reach. He's snatched a few in the last few weeks...and his blocking is awesome. Great complement to Garcon, and Kyle has confidence in calling his number. That second TD today when he ran all the way back in front of the formation was genius. His dance was pretty smooth too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforcer_FFX Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Great to see Hankerson progress. Dude has been CLUTCH. In the drive to even it up at the end against the Ravens, he had a big 3rd down snag early, then the monster catch to set up Garcon's TD right after Kirk came in (after the intentional grounding call no less), and then of course the 2 HUGE TDs right when we need 'em today. Not gaudy 100yrd+ type games but clutch catches in big moments! Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO HAMSKINS Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 All I know is this for the Hank85 haters...Take a look at all of the 5 game winning streak game highlights ...Did you notice that Hank85 was on every single one? I watched Sportcenter and all the other shows for game highlights, and in our winning streak Hank85 has made an appearance in every single one. Can't deny that HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighOnHendrix Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 He shows up at opportune times. I'd say he's more reliable than Moss at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarg Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Yeah, I also hold my breath when he's wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidddddddddddddeeeeeeeeeee open and that ball just seems to take 4 hours to get to him...

Taylorfan2179 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Your position makes you a far better expert than many on the board. I've been critical for Stankerson's propensity to drop balls (Maybe an eye exam?). He did look great yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulane Skins Fan Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I'm all for patience with the guy, but I could really do without the "hankerson bobble" approach to making a catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I've said it a million times, from when we drafted him, through his struggles, through now: Here is what Hankerson is: -A hard working player -Will prepare with the best of them -Coachable, willing to learn -Decent speed, improving routes, good sized target -Has mediocre hands. Will make incredible catches and will drop easy ones That's what you get with Hank. I think the positives far outweigh the negatives with him. He will come into his own. But he'll always drop (or bobble) balls. It's the way he's always played. He's a good addition to this team, and I don't think he's a guy that is going to outprice his services. He might be a 'Skin for a very, very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGibbs Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Love Hank's improvement, but man, he looks like a clumsy **** sometimes. I even held my breath on the bootleg for a TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Glad to see he's on the upward swing. He had me worried earlier in the season when he was playing up to his potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticVillain Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hank has been killing it recently. I stand by my earlier statement that he was playing scared in the beginning of the season. I don't know if it was the injury or what. All I know is that now dude is open a lot and that is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acuratl1984 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hank is getting there, I dont think he is as dependable as Morgan or Santana at the moment though. Morgan has had some crazy catches, Hank not so much. Hopefully next year Hank can be our #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hank has been killing it recently. I stand by my earlier statement that he was playing scared in the beginning of the season. I don't know if it was the injury or what. All I know is that now dude is open a lot and that is a good thing. I agree.. i recall how much pain he appeared to be in when the injury happened.. I'm sure it had a psychological effect that he had to get past. he was playng scared early on,, sometimes it looked like he couldn't find the ground fast enough after a reception. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
