Hank Poteat to Jets from Pats

thank you for your honest answer

 

I checked out this guys stats.....is he even good? No picks, no sacks, a few tackles here and there, and a few punt returns.

 

no idea if he is any good but he was a jet for 1 day played in 1 game...then got cut so who knows maybe it was a numbers thing...must of liked himenough to bring him back

 

He's a 5th DB for like his whole career.

 

Dude, Isn't there something suspicious about that?

 

so now we just pick up patriot leftovers?
is this guy really better than what we have?

 

maybe he's the new starting qb.:rofl:

 

With any luck the Jets win this weekend so you can go away again until the next time we lose.

 

The Earth is the insane asylum of the Noodleverse.

 

Mangini and Belichick are using him to pass notes back and forth.

 

I could be wrong..but wasnt he a pretty decent return man?..punt returns?

I could be wrong.

 

Does anyone have a link for us signing Poteat again? Not that its that big of a signing or anything, but i can't find it anywhere

 

He is not good there.

He had a good year returning punts in 2000, but that's it.
36 for 467 yards and 1 TD on punt returns in 2000.

Hasn't returned a kick since 2002.

Career:
45 kickoff returns for 818 yards, 18.2 average, 0 TDs (career long- 31 yards)

76 punt returns for 788 yards, 10.4 average, 1 TD (career long- 54 yards)

 

Loyalty is a two way street. The Pats horrible bosses to anyone not named Tom Brady. The NFLPA has a horrible contract and with the increased physical nature compared to even basketball and hockey leads to short career spans and high team turnover rate.

 

I wonder if blackbird has an opinion on this.

 

Maybe my standards are abit low, but isn't 10.4 yards a pretty respectable average on punt returns? Regardless of that, I doubt that's what he's being brought in for...the team already has plenty of capable returners, and Poteat hasn't been in that business for the past few seasons.

 

Yes, as a carrier pigeon.

 

This has strategic move all over it. The guy just played against Miami last week. You think it has something to do with that? Of course it does. The guy is clearly no bette than any CB we have right now. The only thing he has is a fresh memory of the victory over the team we're playing this week.

Didn't that Pats pull this sort of move earlier this season. I can't remember the player's name, but it turned out that the player was cut right before the game. He was also seen at the game talking to the opposing team... right?

 

I don't like how things are going in regards to personel move, if anything needed to be addressed was the leadfooted she-men on the d-line and LB's. We need to get rid of Kassell, Chatam and the other moron they signed who commited the stupid penalty on that punt.

 

Seems ok...I wasnt saying thats why he was brought in...I just, for some reason, remembered him returning punts..and not much else...lol.
