HoosierCat Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 The Hags did look pretty formidable last night. Granted, it was only the Texans, but they just beat them silly on national TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalboomer7 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Warrick really impressed me on his 27 yard catch. He did his little P-dub shake and the safety flew right by him. I thought he even looked faster than I remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesbrooks21 Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Yeah he is far from finished but he might not even be playing if it weren't for the injuries to to the Seahawk recieving corps. He definitely wasn't worth the 2.2 mill he was due to be paid. If he would have stayed Chris Henry wouldn't have seen the field as much as he has even though they play different spots.

dave Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Dude has caught six passes in seven games despite the Seahawks top two WRs being out. Hasn't returned a punt since (I think) the second week. He's not worth the minimum, let alone $2.2M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Dude has caught six passes in seven games despite the Seahawks top two WRs being out. Hasn't returned a punt since (I think) the second week. He's not worth the minimum, let alone $2.2M.He wasn't getting $2.2 million, that was his cap hit, $1 million of which (the remainder of his original signing bonus) is still on the Bengals' books this year. His salary would have been $1.2 million. He was replaced -- on the roster, at least -- by Kevin Walter, who even at league minimum ought to be making something like $400k or $500k. So the net savings was maybe $800k. Warrick getting cut was never about money, it was about whether he could still play, and I think he's answered that question pretty clearly.As for his lack of catches, that's a function of the Seattle offense, which is built around Shaun Alexander. Seattle is 17th overall in passing attempts, and doesn't have any WR among the top 30 reception leaders. Warrick is apparently being used mostly in a downfield blocking role.
