WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I feel bad for asking, but "who?" Still, 6'2 with a 4.43 time gives a bit of insurance for an outside guy. Any word about why he never stuck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 With a little bit of digging, he was drafted in the third round by Washington and has bounced around the league ever since. Great size and speeds but hands that would make Greg Little blush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any word about why he never stuck? he was on the Pats for about a week last year - they waived him and intended to bring him back for playoffs and then bills signed for last game when they needed depth. Not sure if he played. He's a bigger WR. Played at the U. I believe he started out with Falcons last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazed and Amuzed Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 He looked good for Atlanta during the first few games last year. In fact he outplayed Roddy White well enough that it kept White on the bench fora stretch. So he at least has experience playing across from Julio Jones in a true #2 WR role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he at least has experience playing across from Julio Jones in a true #2 WR role I don't hate the move but he's just one of those tease players. Deonte Thompson is another one. Thompson can run past NFL CB's with his 4.3 speed. Saw it last preseason. But he has no ball skills so those pretty deep balls fall harmlessly to the turf. Hankerson and Deonte belong on defense where they just need to get "A" hand on the ball instead of 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 The Bills are also really close to signing me with my 4.3 speed. I cover forty in four point three days exactly and I hang on to my balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) I think I saw him make a few great plays at Miami, then never saw the guy again. Being big and fast gets you chances. Edited March 23, 2016 by Augie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billrooter Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 You mean the University of Miami right Augie, if I am not mistaken he was a real good college receiver there. I don't have a problem with all these cheap free agents that have had decent years albeit only 1-2 on other teams myself, it seems alot of people here are intolerant of such moves but they don't have **** for money. With 3-4 guys' like this one is bound to surprise and be a solid 3-4 option, anyone agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I wonder if this will signal no Harvin I think it would. I really like Hankerson. He would give us great depth and he would get a shot at starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Sammy Harvin Woods Hankerson Pick 2 of the rest See what happens with Easley Not terrible. Add a day two pick in there and could be a nice mix this year and beyond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Dude Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Man. Really boring offseason. Yes this has been a poor offseason, how is anyone getting excited when we lost more players then we signed off a 8-8 team. Some of these signings are of average players while teams around us are getting better with both trades & signings. Not sure how you expect to be a better team with huge holes at DE & LB?

Best Player Available Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 he is still milking his stats from his pop warner days when he caught three forward Passes in a single game.
