RELEASED Cowboys release James Washington

[J12B]

Wow. Let's take a moment to celebrate his Cowboy career.

Heading to Philly in 3…2….1

Yeah the guy that gets all the news first from Twitter already posted this, I wish I had a job like his

Tampa waiver claim???? OBJ signing?

 

[OmerV]

It allows you to call up a guy like Takk, Callaway etc for the playoffs.

Its amazing they waited 14-15 weeks for this guy only to release him with 1 week left in the season

Of course they didn't have TY Hilton all of those weeks. With TY now on the team, and with Brown having stepped up this season, Washington became the #5 WR on a team that had too many roster spots (7) filled by WR's. Washington was likely to be the one out of those 7 that wouldn't be around next year anyway, so he was the logical one to let go.

 

[OmerV]

Is Farniok the roster replacement?

Don't they need a spot for Farniok?

If he's healthy, he may be the guy the take off IR, especially if there is concern with Biadasz being ready for the playoffs.

 

[Rockport]

Well the Prescott experiment is still going on, and lasted a heck of a lot longer than the Wentz experiment. Who was just benched, again. 3rd team.

All I'm saying is if Hyatt or Smith-Njigba are sitting there at #32, I'm giving them a long look.

Tampa? TB is stacked at WR. Did they all get hurt? Evans, Godwin, Gage, Miller, Julio Jones, Perriman. I have no idea if they are hurt as I'm not a TB fan, but who would they cut for WASH? Miller is their RS, btw. White and Fournette are both pass catching RBs, and they are stacked at TE w/ Otten and Brate.

I don't understand.

What bothers me is it took this long to figure it out

Nah, he was on IR. Why take him off of it to cut him? That would be a major chickenpoop move.

 

[Joe Realist]

Well, my prediction of four catches for 32 yards for the season didn’t age well

 

[32BellyOption]

I wish we would’ve signed Hilton in the off-season instead of this this guy. Sometimes cheap isn’t always great

Hilton didn’t want to sign during the off season. He wanted time off with his kids before going to back to work.

 

[Rockport]

Player acquisition is a crap shoot. It’s not always about talent. For every James Washington there’s a Dante Fowler.

 

[Joe Realist]

Should’ve signed suh when we had a chance

I'm talking about making him a scratch the last 2 weeks

With 1 target in his Cowboys career, does he wait for the ROH?

 

[America's Cowboy]

I said it way back when Washington was signed during training camp that he would end up being a bust and a waste of a roster spot, especially since Washington as a veteran couldn't even make it this year on a Steelers pass-happy team in need of good receivers. Many called me out for saying such a statement. Well, where are those who called me out and said I had no idea what I was talking about?

What a waste this guy has been! We could have kept DT John Ridgeway who would have at least been a contributor for our interior DTs who have been lacking all season in performance. Whomever has made these decisions has been very ignorant and costly to the team.

 

[Yoshimitsu]

Dude seemed like he was just happy to be here. I didn't see any want to be on the field and contribute.

Guess we were making sure Hilton could play
