Pickup HESTER!!

[Djepacker]

He might have something left to inject into our special teams!! Remember Howard..?!?

 

[Half Empty]

Pretty sure Desmond wasn't 34 and recently cut.

 

[Djepacker]

So what..i'm pretty sure Howard was one cut away from calling it a career before we pick him up. Besides what do we have to lose?? See what he could do to the end of the year and if he doesn't do anything,,,let him go

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

No Thanks. I think Hester's tank appears to be pretty empty. His latest return #'s are pretty pedestrian, and the bigger knock on him to me, he has had 4 fumbles on punt returns and 1 on kickoffs this year. Packers return game isn't spectacular, but I will take my chances on Cobb/Hyde and Janis/Monty.

Hester was cut for a reason, and that reason is that he's ceased to be productive. He was once the best......key word being "was".

 

[C-Lee]

Meh, no thanks.

 

[Djepacker]

Well I just felt we took a chance on De-Nile Davis

 

[RepStar15]

Hester is a has-been. This signing would make no sense right now. A team like the patriots could benefit from him though.

 

[Deleted member 6794]

No, thanks. Hester is done.

Gee another " I heard this name before so he must be worth picking up" thread.

ETA: Do you realize this is the fourth "GET HESTER" thread we have had over the past 2 1/2 years? Plus 4 much older "do not kick to him" threads and one comparing him to Cobb and Harvin. Have we spent as many photons on any other non-Packer player besides Cutler? Beast mode maybe?

 

[El Guapo]

Probably Suh made a run for the #-of-threads title when he was a leg stomper for Detroit

Not much of a chance - By cutting him after two games, the Packers ended up owing the Chiefs nothing in the way of compensation:

Hester is way past being effective

Fire Capers. Then he'll be a non-Packer with an impressive archive.

At least we didn't have any "only if he plays for the minimum" replies.

Granted in Hester's case it may actually be applicable but I love it when you read that response for guys that you know are going to get several million per year.

 

[El Guapo]

I suppose that is the ultimate nail in the coffin. If nobody here even offered up the "only if he plays for the minimum" statement, then he's certainly not desired.

All you boneheads thought I was an idiot for saying that we should pick him up and guess who gets him?? The Seahawks! We could've used him as a defense of back also

Their return man has broken leg if I heard correct.

So they needed one

Yes Lockett was return guy as well.. With his broken leg they HAD to get a guy. Plus they use Sherman as well.

Just because the Seahawks signed him doesn't mean it's a good move. They also
traded for Percy Harvin and are terrible at finding offensive lineman.

 

[lambeaulambo]

Can buggy return kicks? I heard C Wood might be available....get him signed before rigor mortis sets in!!

 

[7thFloorRA]

I hope Wilson has some 90 yd drives in him. This guy is not taking a touchback.

 

[PFanCan]

Please stop wasting... What was it that Buggy said?... Oh, yeah- photons on this thread.

Rigormortis lol!

De back? He hasn't played cb since rookie I believe in 2006.

Come on man..

He was signed by Seattle.
