The Official Donte Stallworth Pure Speculation Thread

[dirthogs311]

He was drafted by the New Orleans Saints with the 13th pick in the first round of the 2002 NFL Draft. Stallworth caught eight touchdown passes in 2002, his rookie year, but saw less action the next season. As a full time starter in 2004, he had 767 receiving yards and five touchdowns. In 2005, he recorded a career-high 70 receptions for 945 yards with seven touchdowns.
On August 28, 2006, he was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for linebacker Mark Simoneau and a conditional fourth round pick in the 2007 Draft. The Eagles made the deal for him because they needed a speed receiver to line up at the X in Andy Reid's version of the West Coast Offense. In Stallworth's first game with the Eagles, less than two weeks after the trade, he caught six passes for 141 yards and a touchdown. Due to a nagging hamstring injury, Stallworth missed three games early in the regular season, but finished the year with 725 yards and five touchdowns.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that Stallworth was in the league substance abuse program. [1] Stallworth could face a four game suspension for another positive drug test.
On March 11, 2007, Stallworth agreed to terms with the New England Patriots in a reported six-year deal worth $30 million with $3.5 million guaranteed. The contract is incentive laden, meaning that the Patriots could release him if he underperforms for a small fraction of the full contract. He is also reunited with fellow receiver and college teammate Kelley Washington, who was also brought into the Patriots via free agency on March 11, 2007. [1]




NO THANKS

If we're looking for WR's with experience in the West Coast why not target FA to be D.J. Hackett? He probably will re-sign in Seattle, but Zorn is obviously familiar with him and he did some good things in the Northwest once he got healthy at the end of the year.

With Zorn on board that could be possible. He's very good when healthy.
