Joeythetapeworm Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 What would you guys think if the Skins drafted him in the third? The way I see it, if Gibbs/Buges/Breaux could work with his anger issues, he could be either a monster center to replace Rabach a few years from now, or to steal Dockery's Left Guard position. I figure that his anger issues could be an asset on the playing field provided it gets directed in a positive manner(a Jansen-like mean streak). And, at third round salary, it's not a problem if he spends a couple of years as a backup and doesnt' start right away. So he could have plenty of time to get his knee at 100% and we wouldnt' have to worry about starting a rookie O-lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The X-Factor Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I thought this was another one of Vick's fake names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsguy29 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 We need players who are as rich in character as talent. Bad character players with good talent seem to me to be a waste. Look at Dexter Manley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeythetapeworm Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 Originally posted by skinsguy29 ...Look at Dexter Manley. I'm not sure I follow your logic. Gibbs kept Dex in line long enough for him to be a very solid contributor to the team, and, I believe, got rid of him when the personal problems got in the way of his play. It seems like Gibbs takes issue with people who have on the field problems, not off the field issues(Riggo, Dex, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo-toni Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I'd say Incognito is an unknown.... sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie0720 Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Yea, look at Dexter Manley, that guy was no good for us ever! :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I know I was too young to remember Manley, but didnt he play solid for us a good 8-9 years? Him, Charles Mann, Dave Butz, those guys posted insane numbers. Incognito hurt himself a little at the combine, that may make him fall even more, not sure if he's recovered though. He has major problems being kicked out of both Nebraska and Oregon this season. I would not mind taking his risk though, he seems to be a monster guard/center, but he needs to channel that anger like you said. He would add some nastyness to our line as well.

VaSkinsNut Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Incognito will be there in round 6. If he's there take him in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Not in the third, no way. Maybe in the 6th or 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Tooth Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I do not know about this particular player, but I am sure that Joe will pull out another Cooley move which was a great one IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 He's said to be one of the more talented interior OL in the draft this year. Unfortunately, all that talent is wasted on a ten cent head that can't be controllled. The only way he's drafted by us is if the value is overwhelming and the risk low. A 7th round pick rarely makes the club other than practice squad of an above average special teamer... but his talent in the 7th round would be a steal. If he's there, I'm all for drafting him and hoping Gibbs and CO. can straighten out his personal life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoDannyBoy Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 No more problem players, we all ready have enough headcases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinker Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 There's too many teams with all of those supplemental picks to wast in the middle rounds. I can't see him falling to us in the 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimster Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 What kind of anger issues are we talking about? If he has some serious issues, I might be a little more concerned about the trouble he could get into when he's NOT around the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't hugely informative, but should give you a bit of an idea about the guy. http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/playerprofiles/c/richieincognito.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
