OMacAttack Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Decent landing spot for Michael Sam if he's cut by the Rams, maybe? Rotate him in a couple plays a game until Smith gets back and sell a ton of merchandise in the process. Though it seems every Cowboy fan on Twitter seems to want Jerry to pick him up The only result suggesting the same for the Redskins in the past 24 hours came from Jerry Hairston, who doesn't count cause he's a National. I think he's played well this preseason, but it's nice to have the luxury of not being desperate enough on defense to salivate over the prospects of bringing in another team's seventh round pick. Wasn't it one of the DB's from San Fran who said he wouldn't play with a gay teammate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexx1240 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Don't think Helu makes the team. Seastrunk is a much better back IMO, and has a lot more upside. You and I had a HUGE disagreement about this which took up a couple pages in this thread. I told you I would definitely give you your props if you were right... but at this point you definitely stand corrected bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, Lache certainly looked better in the preseason, but the coaching staff went for experience. Helu has never really impressed me and as good as he is supposed to be catching the ball, Lache looked ALOT better. Anyways, you were right. I stand corrected.

Well, to be fair to you, Helu's last starts came smack dab in the middle of puberty for you. You probably had other things in mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thekyle1591 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Spoken like someone who just started following the Redskins this preseason lol... Yeah, that's me. Let's just discard the fact that Seastrunk gained more yards in a single catch than Helu did his entire preseason. Or the fact that in 2013 Helu had more dropped passes than missed tackles forced and only played on 3rd and long or in garbage time. Only reason why Helu made the team is 1. Experience 2. Pass pro.

If you're absolutely dead set on ignoring every single thing Helu has done in the regular season and insisting that this preseason should define him as a pass catcher out of the backfield, then I'm being generous by saying you must have only started following the Skins a few months ago. And both RBs only caught 2 catches this preseason. Seastrunk's other catch was for 8 yards. And both of his were against 5th stringers in the 2nd half of the last preseason game. So again...if you feel that one singular catch for 80 yards should outweigh all of Helu's 80+ catches against starters in the regular season...well, I'm not sure I can come up with a generous enough way to state what I think lol...

PCS Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well,gotta give Seastrunk a little credit. Apparently that's 2 more catches than he had in all of 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the preseason. I said in his minimum opportunities, Lache has looked better than Helu. Only had 2 catches, one of which was an 80 yard Td. That's an element that Helu has never brought to the redskins. He's a guy who catches the ball, but doesn't make people miss and goes down easily. What exactly has Helu done of note catching the ball since the 2011 49ers game? 37 catches for 296 yards. Nothing really noteworthy. I'm saying that while you can teach pass pro and catching the ball, you cannot teach the pure speed and quickness that Helu can only wish he had.

RandyHolt Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 If I was Lache I think I would head to the Saints Brees and the speedy turf. We clearly didn't want him despite a decent camp, so at this point I do not expect him back to our PS. I wish he was here though, I want to start trying to develop backs, and not expect perfection in year one. These scat or hands backs almost always need time to develop. He is likely not a difference maker this year sure, but do not think Helu is a change of pace back / difference maker at this point either. Helu is becoming a good all around player, but not a game changer. No one to game plan against. At least we have Colt McCoy to fall back on, as we ponder life with somewhat 1 dimensional backs for yet another year. Lucky for us we are deep at WR, but will we see more than 3 on the field at a time for Robert, not bunched, finally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Lache Seastrunk signed with us yet? just gonna say one more comment since Cooleyfan said something but to answer your question, there's been no word on Seastrunk... hope he signs with us, but he may not... i'm sure we'll be fine if he doesn't..... well, 7/16 players on my team have a week 10 BYE week.. bro.. don't worry about it... i know a lot of people that make sure they have ALL their players having the same bye week... of course they know they'll lose that week but if it's only that week, they're happy... rock on!
