Comments on: Danny Woodhead Signed to Active Roster http://www.thejetsblog.com/2009/10/17/danny-woodhead-signed-to-active-roster/ Ranting and Raving about the Gang Green Sun, 12 Feb 2012 14:13:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Sideliner http://www.thejetsblog.com/2009/10/17/danny-woodhead-signed-to-active-roster/#comment-191573 Sideliner Sun, 18 Oct 2009 18:14:16 +0000 http://www.thejetsblog.com/?p=17702#comment-191573 Just read the news this morning out here in AZ about Woodhead. Now let's hoope he is activated for the game. I have been saying all along that his position on the Jets might be slot receiver, with the team being loaded with great RBs. He does add so many thing to the game with his speed and quickness. Maybe if he does get in the game, he will be overlooked by the defense, initially. Remember Ryan saying that the Jets had a secret WR, and that Woodhead had two of the best hands on the team. Maybe it is time for him to get his chance. That is all he is asking. He would do anything for the Jets, on or off the field. These guys that are pissed that he is even still on the team are very unhappy people. Very sorry that they are so negative. Remember, guys, you have a choice to be happy or not. Get on board with everyone else, and wish good luck to Woodhead. The team needs everyone in their corner. Maybe we will see two great former D-ll running backs in the same game, as Xavier Omon plays for the Bills. In the world of Danny Woodhead, wonders never cease. Go CSC Eagles!!!

My sarcasm is aimed at the commenters that are comparing him to Wes Welker and Chrebet. Hes never played the position and the lone reason he is lining up out there is he is the only remaining skill position player on the roster. They may have a play or two drawn up for him, but he is hardly going to be the go to guy on third down, is all I'm saying. I hope he does not play, in truth, because it means everyone else stays healthy and is doing a good job. I am not negative about his accomplishments, he is to be commended.

Good Luck to him I hope he does well, maybe he can be our smaller version of Wayne Chrebet i think this shows he wasnt just a pitty practice squad addition, they really liked him.

If he's a non-factor then he did his job...whereas if he has to play and his inability to make an impact IS a factor, then the Jets offense might struggle. I don't get the negativity though. He's worked extremely hard to make it to the NFL. We should applaud that, not knock it. Now he's a Jet, so why not support him along with the rest of the team? If Darren Sproles can become a full time NFL player, then perhaps so can Danny Woodhead. He can't prove that sitting on a practice squad. That’s more of less how I feel.

How did the coaching staff not realize before this that Woodhead is the answer to all our problems?? There's a rumor he can throw the ball ninety yards in the air too!!! They will have to play cover three with him in the Seminole. The Bills coaching staff didnt sleep last night gameplanning against the magnificent Woodhead. This really threw a curve at them, jeezus, what great strategy by our great FO waiting until Saturday to promote him. Defenses around the NFL are quaking in the boots. OMG pure genius!!!!

This isnt about Woody, it is about lack of depth at a a position due to injury. He's gonna be the next Wes Welker?? C'mom, reality check folks. Doubt he will get more than a few reps, and I would greatly prefer and expect them to use Leon in whatever roll you envision for him. He is a one week emergency WR. Rusty has it right, Sanchez has been prone to overthrowing recievers, a common problem with the less tall QB's in the league. How is he going to find Woodhead, if indeed he does get reps. Then, remember the weather. He is a non-factor this week. I’ve never seen so much excitement about a practice squad player getting promoted out of desperation.
