Anyone wish we had signed Hank Baskett over the Colts getting him?

I had mentioned it in at least two of my posts that I thought after seeing the weakness we had at least in our #3 wide reciever position and now seeing we really have some injured guys this year,we really could have used Baskett as the Colts will turn him into a real nice target and he will meet thier needs as he could have met ours.

I know coach Whiz did'nt want to add anymore thoughts to the passing game but it got us to 1 SuperBowl and In just my personal opinion.The future is still NOW and we should have made a run for him.

Why did we even dress Long out last week and let him play in such an important game? Then get rid of him unceremoniously?Until our WR's are healthy we are'nt the same team.Breaston missed practice yesterday and I have'nt heard about today yet.I'm too scared to ask.This should have long been over with by now as I had thought it was'nt this serious.Now it must be serious.

Now the Colts lose Gonzalez for 8 weeks at least and have Baskett to play against us on Sunday night.He should be in red& white.

Now you can all jump on me like a pack of wild dogs and tear me a new one.I don't care.Its just my opinon.

I've met the 100 post mark and still can't post an avatar.Am I still considered a newb? Please someone let me know the criteria to shoot for?

I kind of thought about Baskett, but new it wasn't a real option based on the fact that Doucet is coming back from his rib injury. Baskett would have never signed here based on the fact that he never would have cracked the top 3 or maybe even 4.

Doug,
Who else should have dressed in place of Long? Breaston and Doucet were out and Boldin was gimpy.

Baskett wasn't available until after our game. :)

If I even began to have any cred here I have totally lost it all on this post.I appologize for such a stupid call and will just sit in the corner and shutup.I really hope Early can come around for us.I loved him at LSU.

I also know we need Breaston this week to spread the field and if not I fear our running game might be shut down.I know we're getting used to that but Henderson will have a big part in doing that I'm afraid.

I've learned my lesson.I don't play Madden or any fantasy football games so don't think I think we can just pick up anyone anytime we need some help.Maybe I had a higher opinion of Hank than everyone.I appreciate the comments and hope I have'nt done permanent damage to post here.

I deserved what I got though.:D Com'on BEANIE have a break out week.

Um...let me think....uhhh..

ok. No.

Doug - theres nothing wrong with throwing out ideas. That's what makes this board go. Personally, I never thought he was any good at all, but that's me.

I don't think Basket was signed to replace Gonzalez. He's going to backfill the roster as other guys step up, IMO. I don't think he'll see many catches this season with the Colts.

JMHO

(PS--if you can't make the Eagles' roster, how good a WR can you be?)

I think in my very first ASFN post years ago I suggested that the Cardinals look at picking up Rick Mirer. :|

(I still think at the time it wasn't a bad idea...the guy stayed in the league forever as a backup)
