Title: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Brian Fein on October 01, 2012, 01:48:42 am Seriously, the guy hasn't touched the ball once all season. Finally makes a catch and trips and fumbles in a game-critical situation after being hit by a warm breeze.
I am surprised he hasn't been cut by now. Bring back Chad Johnson, and get rid of this loser, ASAP. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee?

Post by: Brian Fein on October 01, 2012, 01:54:23 am ^^ that's the only possible explanation.
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: mecadonzilla on October 01, 2012, 01:55:42 am On a scale of 1-10 of Naanee's worthlessness: he's an 11.
He's not part of this team's future, and he's hurting this team in the present. Why is he still here? Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee?

Why is he still here? Because Ireland then looks even worse. This was his free agency find. He cuts Nanu Nanu then that leaves just ONE of his 2012 free agency siginings left on the roster. Ireland is truly worthless. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: MikeO on October 01, 2012, 06:06:57 am And if they come out this week at the press conference and say he is good as a run blocking WR and use that as a reason for keeping him (like they did last week) seriously they have all lost their minds.
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: el diablo on October 01, 2012, 06:35:16 am Run blocking WR's are called tight ends. He isn't one of those either. Didn't one of his "blocks" cost us a gain?
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Landshark on October 01, 2012, 07:01:33 am He must have a secret sex tape of Ireland or something because he's trash! Like Lil B said in another thread. We're way beyond Naanee having a secret sex tape of Ireland with Vegas prostitutes. We're in the neighborhood of Naanee knowing about people in Biscayne Bay with concrete shoes that Ireland put there. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: hordman on October 01, 2012, 07:18:30 am All I have to say is he SUCKS!!!!!!!!!
Listen, if he couldn't get on board in San Diego where Phillips rivers was the 2nd coming of Air Coryell, and I don't know what to f*ckin say. When he dropped that catch after snagging it above his head (nice catch though) and then tripped and the ball came loose, I yelled out loud in my TV room with my boy. Couldn't believe it. Drop him like a hot potato. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: el diablo on October 01, 2012, 09:28:59 am Like Lil B said in another thread.

We're in the neighborhood of Naanee knowing about people in Biscayne Bay with concrete shoes that Ireland put there. The same can be said about Ireland over Ross. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Phishfan on October 01, 2012, 09:35:52 am He cuts Nanu Nanu then that leaves just ONE of his 2012 free agency siginings left on the roster. I have seen similar claims from you before. It is absolutely incorrect. I'm not sure where you may have heard this or found this but it is not true. I just was doing some research and assume Armando's article was the source. There are a couple of omissions. First, he specifies veteran free agents (Javorski Lane was a free agent but is a rookie that you nor he account for) and second he specifies only the Spring & Summer pickups (Anthony Armstrong is not accounted for). These are two examples off the top of my head to show inaccuracy, there may be others. That said Naanee sucks. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Fins4ever on October 01, 2012, 10:10:30 am I predict we have seen the last of Naanee. He will not see the field again and will be cut when a replacement player is found. Agree, would rather have Chad Johnson, warts and all.

It's funny how we've heard he a real professional and works really hard but, we have yet to see anything near that with him! He may be a good practice guy (I'm not sure about that either) but I know without a doubt he sucks when it really counts! Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Brian Fein on October 01, 2012, 10:27:32 am Activate Rishard Matthews, leave him inactive at least. Worthless.

He may be a good practice guy (I'm not sure about that either) but I know without a doubt he sucks when it really counts! We see it, the coaches see it, Ireland sees it. It is only a matter of finding a replacement. I don't buy the theory that JI wants to keep him to save face. The guy was signed as a FA WR in a weak market. Cutting him is no loss or an admission of a mistake. Besides, if pride was a big concern, second round pick VD would still be on the roster. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Brian Fein on October 01, 2012, 10:31:17 am I don't buy the theory that JI wants to keep him to save face. That's what Ireland haters say to turn his terrible play into a dig on Ireland. Haters gonna hate.Anyone rather take a stab on Plaxico, Chad, Mike Sims-Walker, Lee Evans over Naanee? Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee?

Anyone rather take a stab on Plaxico, Chad, Mike Sims-Walker, Lee Evans over Naanee? Who else is on the roster worth trying to develop? Armstrong??? Matthews??? My vote is for Marlon Moore. Time to see what he can do. Hard to believe Naanee has lasted 6 yrs. in the NFL. Here is the current roster, in order of pos. http://prod.www.dolphins.clubs.nfl.com/team/player-roster.html Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: jimmythefinger on October 01, 2012, 11:26:10 am Before this game I was calling him "The Invisible Man." Frankly wish I still could.
Has never been better than a 3rd WR. Think he was #2 for a while in Carolina when somebody got hurt. And as long as we're talking about Ireland's Free Agents this year, can't say Richard Marshall looks like much of a deal either. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Brian Fein on October 01, 2012, 11:28:56 am If we went Hartline, Bess, Moore, Matthews, and Armstrong for the rest of the season, I'd be a happy guy.
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Pappy13 on October 01, 2012, 11:32:56 am He's been mentioned 7 times in the play by play.
Tannehill has been intercepted twice when throwing to Naanee. Tannehill has been incomplete twice when throwing to Naanee. Tannehill has completed once to Naanee, which he fumbled. Naanee has been credited with 2 tackles on special teams. Like I said earlier only 2 things can happen when you throw to Naanee and BOTH of them are bad. I have no freaking clue why he's on the team. Must be his special teams work and run blocking because it's not as a receiver. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: jimmythefinger on October 01, 2012, 11:36:56 am I thought Matthews and BJ Cunningham looked decent in pre-Season. We let Cunningham get away. You have to wonder about Coaches that rate Naanae higher than either of those.

I would even tell Phibin, "you can put him out there, but he isn't getting a pass". Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: mecadonzilla on October 01, 2012, 11:44:26 am The only thing positive I can say about Naanee is at least he hustled to make the tackle and keep Peterson out of the endzone on that fumble return.
It could have been the most significant tackle made by a Dolphin all day. Maybe he should be playing defense. ;) Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Spider-Dan on October 01, 2012, 11:47:39 am Ernest Wilford Jr.
Title: Legadu Nannee Post by: Dave Gray on October 01, 2012, 02:52:57 pm I don't know if this is how you spell his name. My apologies, if not.
Regardless, I think that you need to terminate Nannee today. I am surprised that he made the team in the first place. It's not just his recent mistake (that in my opinion, should have been called an incomplete pass). It's the fact that I think he brings nothing to your roster. He isn't a particularly good route runner, and more importantly, he can't catch. I think what you should do, unless you have a free agent WR you were considering, is to bring in 7-11 Chris Hogan. He can run tight timing routes and he can catch. It's better than what you have. Plus, I think it sends a message that you're looking to improve. Title: Re: Legadu Nannee Post by: bsfins on October 01, 2012, 02:58:17 pm I feel like my biggest gripe is this is his 6th season in the league He's 28...I'd understand if he was a rookie,maybe a second year guy that showed a quality that you needed...He just hasn't showed didly IMO..Personally I'd like to see more Rishard Mathews..
I keep thinking Derrius Thompson...all over again... Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Spider-Dan on October 01, 2012, 03:54:24 pm I think what you should do, unless you have a free agent WR you were considering, is to bring in 7-11 Chris Hogan. He can run tight timing routes and he can catch. It's better than what you have. Plus, I think it sends a message that you're looking to improve. Hogan was cut from the practice squad. It seems like he's pretty far from playing in a game.I would have liked to have kept him and try him out in real games (he might be a gamer, like Matt Moore) but the ship has likely sailed. Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Fins4ever on October 01, 2012, 05:25:33 pm Seriously, the guy hasn't touched the ball once all season. Finally makes a catch and trips and fumbles in a game-critical situation after being hit by a warm breeze. I am surprised he hasn't been cut by now. Bring back Chad Johnson, and get rid of this loser, ASAP. Naane is more useless than tits on a bull. Even tits on a bull does no harm...and they don't count against the cap. Cut this loser NOW!! I don't care if you replace him with Flipper! Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: MikeO on October 01, 2012, 06:27:25 pm If you rewatch the end of the game, Naanee also whiffed on a block on a Reggie run late that went for 15+ yards or so. If he makes that block Reggie might have scored or at least gained another 20 or so yards. If he makes that block the fumble never happens and Miami might win that game in regulation. Re-watch the 4th quarter, you can't miss the play,
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: Fins4ever on October 02, 2012, 11:56:45 am To put someone as bad as Naanee out on the field really says just how bad the WR corp is. There must be someone better than Naanee to put out there. This is the guys 6th year. He isn't going to get any better. What you see is what you get.
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: masterfins on October 02, 2012, 12:42:35 pm I seem to recall reading, or hearing, that the coaches were high on Naane at the start of the preseason. Obviously someone was wrong. Time to cut him, hope they don't have much cash invested in him for the year.
Title: Re: How worthless is Legedu Naanee? Post by: EKnight on October 02, 2012, 12:46:53 pm If Naanee is on the team he probably drops more of their passes than he catches. But at least they're trying to get players around Tannehill. ^^Somebody was prophetic. -EK |
