Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
This. Niles Paul should get more opps, but now w/ Tana injured the WR corp is that much more pathetic

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Stallworth made Beck look good throughout the preseason. Why sit him?

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
From what I gathered after the game, seemed like Beck he made the call to go to Hankerson on that INT. Which I thought was probably the wrong thing to do. But he also said that probably wasn't the right decision to make. Which I thought was the right thing to say.

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Hankerson clearly has some growing up to do, on and off the field.

I love drafting receivers.

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Beck took the blame for that play today, as he did last night. Whether it was all his fault (which it probably wasn't) doesn't matter. That he stepped up and took the heat does.
And people seem to have a very loose view of "bitching and moaning" in my opinion

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
I thought Hankerson was the biggest steal of the draft?

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Who would you have rather drafted?
Jon Baldwin hasn't seen the field. Titus Young has 200 yards, playing with Stafford and Megatron... And getting plenty of opportunities. Torrey Smith is doing terrific. Former Terp... Would have been a wise choice, but a reach at 41 (Jenkins). Greg Little is getting opportunities and doing well. Randall Cobb dropped a huge catch yesterday and might not see the field outside of returns for a while.. Not to mention Aaron Rodgers isn't fair, he could make Dante Stallworth the leagues touchdown leader. Austin Pettis has shown absolutely nothing. --- People who were available when we picked a receiver ---- Leonard Hankerson .... Jerrel Jernigan hasn't caught a pass despite injuries early for the Giants Kris Durham hasn't done anything Edmond Gates .... nothing Greg Salas saw him drop quite a few passes, but lately has been quite good Basically you get the point... It's easy to say our receivers are busts, but A) They don't get chances and B) Their fellow rookies aren't exactly lighting it up aside from Green and Jones

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Not giving up on Hank by any means but getting kind of annoyed with him. I am realizing that it might not be a good idea to follow the Redskins on twitter. he can't even get active on gameday yet I got to see his tweets about looking for people to play Madden with online. How about getting your arse to Redskins park and doing some extra work with the QB's or some film study. Surely as a rookie WR trying to get up to speed to contribute there is a better way to use your time on a weekday afternoon. Maybe he's working 20 hours a day at his craft and the twitter account is giving off a false vibe but it appears that he's not doing all he can do to get on the field.

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Way too many assumptions are made about players based on what you occasionally see on Twitter
He didn't tweet at all between mid September to early October. And now tweets once every three or four days. What's the harm?

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Damn. Well we couldn't have expected his luck to last forever. We used to call Moss injury prone back in the day, before he put together an excellent stretch of mostly healthy seasons (minus standard bumps and bruises that every player accumulates). Now we get to see how much we're going to miss him with him out. Well if there ever was a time for the young ones to step up, it's now.

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
I don't care about twitter or how often he tweets it's that he's telling me that he's playing video games at times of the day I think he could be doing something else to improve his standing on the team. He had never been active for a game before yesterday and there is a perception that the reason is that he doesn't know the offense as well as the other WR's. It also doesn't help that he is the biggest WR they have and his presense is desperately needed in the redzone. So yes...Not gonna lie...the thoguht of him sitting around playing video games bugs me.

Re: Leonard Hankerson active vs Panthers
Like a lot of rookies Hank needs to learn how to be a pro. So far he's been a major disappointment.
