Eagles Add Vick To 53-man Roster; Baskett Released

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/09/15/ap/sportsline/main5313514.shtml

Hank Baskett, WR
Height/Weight: 6-4/220

In 2008, Baskett caught 64.7 percent of the passes thrown at him with only 4 of his 51 targets being considered drops.
Compare Baskett with two of the best receivers in the League:
Larry Fitzgerald caught 62.3 percent of his 154 targets and was charged with two drops.

Andre Johnson caught 67.6 percent of his 170 targets and was charged with five drops
What about his speed? A 4.5 second 40 yard dash is respectable and his three 85 yards touchdowns are proof that he can run. It may take him an extra step to get to top speed, but don't doubt that this guy can move.


In 48 career games with the Eagles, he caught 72 passes for 1,052 yards and 6 touchdowns. He had his best season a year ago, when he caught 33 passes for 440 yards and 3 touchdowns,

Hank Baskett is a good player and probably most importantly a nice guy.

I'd take a flyer on him if we didn't have Ogletree.

Why did the WR starved Eagles cut him if he's so good. He will forever be known as Kendra the playmate's husband not an NFL WR.

Wouldn't want the media circus he brought. His marriage to Kendra flew under the radar because he is an E-girl. Would be TMZ special if he was a Cowboy.

Baskett was one of seven receivers the Eagles carried on their 53-man roster through Week 1. He became expendable after Philadelphia selected Jeremy Maclin in the first round of April's draft and added Brandon Gibson in the sixth round.

Most don't know about the obscure rule that an NFL team can only have one player at a time married to a Playboy model. Garcia in... Basket out. :D

And yet you want M Jones - you don't think that would raise some eyebrows
