Leonard Hankerson

[twix2500]

I have no idea why the falcons release Leonard Hankerson, until i hear a good reason to stay away from him. I want the dolphins to pick him up. He was having a good season with Atlanta and then got hurt. Good size good speed, can run after the catch and can get open. Pick em up and release Jennings.

I was shocked as well. But the pats released him for a reason.

 

[twix2500]

Yeah im not gonna let what the pats do, determine what i do as a franchise. Never heard him being a bad teammate and he was productive this year. We heard complaints about Matthews, and i was praying we didnt let him go and look now he a legit number 2 receiver. Get Hankerson, and we have a complete Young WR core: Landry, Matthews, Stills, Parker and Hankerson.

The only thing I can think of why the Falcons, and now the Patriots, released Hankerson is because of injuries. Hankerson has been dealing with lower leg injuries his entire NFL career.

 

[NoblePhin]

yeah outside of injuries he would be the perfect pickup, especially with the possibility of not being able to resign Matthews. Parker, Stills, Landry, Hankerson is a solid 4 WR Set.

No need to sign him. What's he done this year that any current player couldn't do?

26 receptions with 8 drops...ouch

7 games, 4 catches per game. Who else average that on our roster? Apparently, the qb had confidence throwing to him

He dropped the ball in Miami a lot as well. Just because he has a familiar name doesn't mean that he should be signed.
We need LB's, CB's, and Oline. That is the focus IMHO.

 

[dlockz]

we passed on him when he was released by falcons so I doubt we pick him up now.

14 catches in the other 5 games outside of his two 6 catch performances. He's nothing special and isn't a need.

He is better than Greg Jennings but I dont think he is the same after injury. The falcons and pats cut him so I think that says enough

 

[justdon]

Don't realy need him and being injury prone leave that deal alone.

Your math is a bit off Bud...He played in 9 games which would be a bit less than 3 receptions per game

Only 5 players in the entire NFL have more dropped passes than Hankerson
His drop percent is an astronomical 17.4% which is the worst for all wide receivers in the NFL

Anyone with confidence in him should have their head examined

He has had one good game this year, I'll pass.
