Leon Washington

Welcome ladies and gents to the 2010 New England Patriots offseason. I'm happy to be back at it again, as money is getting exchanged in this uncapped free agency period. It's been another minute since the last time you all have heard from me, and my plan is to not give you all 2,000 words. That said, this is the time of the year where plans start getting adjusted by external factors! I'll call these reports the Hindsight Reports because all we are going to do is look back on them and judge. Let me catch you all up on what's been up the last couple of weeks (besides the Combine, more on that jazz later): -WR Randy Moss conceded that 2010 will most likely be his last season in New England: I think what is interesting about this is that Moss' cited the fact that New England [...] Continue reading →

Chiefs Release Larry Johnson

November 11, 2009 by Tom Buckley | Chester Taylor, Darren Sproles, Johnson released, Kansas City Chiefs, Leon Washington, Todd Haley, will roaf, will shields

Why do I get this sudden feeling like no one cares? Maybe its because they probably don't, and I can't say I blame them, at all. On monday, the Chiefs released the former Pro Bowl back, who was just 75 yards short of breaking Priest Holmes team record for rushing yards. Johnson found himself in the doghouse yet again after his recent debacle with the media, where Johnson publically threw out several homosexual slurs towards head coach Todd Haley. Johnson, since joining the Chiefs, has been arrested four times, and twice been suspended by the team for his detrimental conduct. My first thoughts are thus, why did they even put up with him for so long? Johnson had two good years(the second which many fans say Edwards "destroyed" by having Johnson run as much as he did) and other than [...] Continue reading →

Welcome Back, Justin Miller

October 27, 2009 by Cole Tessler | Justin Miller, Justin Miller Jets, Leon Washington

The Jets picked up a familiar face Tuesday after the devastating injury to Leon Washington. That familiar face is Justin Miller. Some might remember him, some might not, but here is a memory refresher for all of you. Justin Miller was a cornerback out of Clemson, drafted in the 2nd round by the Jets in 2005. Justin Miller made an impact instantly in the special teams, racking up 1,577 yards with a 26.3 yard average as a kick returner. In his second year Justin Miller was one of the most feared kick returners in the league, averaging 30.1 yards with 2 touchdowns. He even made the pro bowl as the AFC's kick returner. Early in the 2007 season, Justin Miller was placed on IR with a season ending knee injury. That gave Mr. Leon Washington his oppurtunity as a kick returner, he [...] Continue reading →

Bush doesn’t Spell Bust

August 30, 2009 by Michael Ellis | 2006 NFL Draft, deangelo williams, Deuce McAlister, Drew Brees, LenDale White, Leon Washington, New Orleans Saints, Pierre Thomas, Reggie Bush

Reggie Bush...so much gets made and discussed if he is a bust or not. Bush was taken second overall in the 2006 NFL draft. But what makes a player a bust? Is the player built up by the media? Does Bush classify as a bust? If you understand what Reggie is and what he is capable of on the football field then you can distinguish if you consider him a bust or not. When the Saints drafted Reggie Bush they already had Deuce McAllister on their roster. The Saints' plan was to use the two running backs together, Deuce with the power and toughness…and Bush with his speed, vision, and agility. And [...] Continue reading →
