Koren Robinson on His Way Out of Seattle

TheMalcolmConnection · 06-02-2005, 02:09 PM

I wonder what kind of money he'd be looking for.

Holmgren did try to help this guy and after all he's done, he tells Mike, the Seattle fans and media how he has learned from his mistakes and is getting the help he needs, etc. The fans here seemed willing to give him another chance and not even two months after he makes these statements, he goes out and gets a DUI. The guys has tons of talent, but I don't want to see the Skins take him for 3 or 4 years and get maybe 1 good season out of him, while waiting for his "potential".

U guys make so many judgements based on what the media said, personally I hope we sign him, he'd be a great pick up and a change of area may be the only thing he needs.

no thanks... one thing seattle was known for last year is WRs with butterfingers... he can't catch and he has serious alcohol problems (besides being late for meetings)... he's not the kind of guy we'd want to bother with and like gardner, he's only had 1 good year.

His arrests are a matter of public record. His dropped passes are on film and I've seen them in person. He himself has admitted he has an alcohol problem. He was suspended for violating the league's substance abuse rules last season. He was suspended for two games last season by his team for violating team rules. He's had a grand total of 70 catches for just over 1,000 yards in two seasons despite being the 9th overall pick a few years back. I don't dislike him because of what the media says, I dislike him because of what he has and has not done.

I can't believe how it seems not matter who the player is, there's always someone that think's it's a good idea to sign him.

How about Rae Carruth anyone, what if he got out of prison tomorrw? Who's going to suggest signing him to a veteran minimum deal?

Ahhhh... after that info I reverse my vote.

i wouldn't even glance at koren robinson. the guy is the next rod gardner. he'll probably get suspended next year for drug abuse too. i would like peter warrick though if he got released by the bengals.

TheMalcolmConnection · 06-02-2005, 11:32 PM

I watched Warrick for FSU when I was on the FSU bandwagon (I have since jumped off because I realized that I only started liking them in the early 90s when they were winning) and the guy is a PLAYMAKER. Granted, he hasn't made TOO many plays since he was drafted, but the talent is still there. He just needs some grooming or a one-year deal..

monk81 · 06-04-2005, 03:08 PM

It's an attitude, a mind set, and how that player channels his off season time, who he hangs with, and family support system. etc......although most of the players with problems get the headlines, it's probably just a small percentage of players who get into trouble.

Just think of all the colleges and players, and the few roster spots available on the 32 NFL teams and along with it their chance to earn that big money. When a talented player throws it all way for drugs or whatever.........well that's a tragedy

A word to the REDSKINS......don't even CONSIDER this guy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lookup "Sean Taylor" to those who think we should sign Koren.
