RiggoReincarnated Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 From what I read of the Eagles minicamp, it seems like Bruce Perry is going to be featured primarily with Westbrook. Has Ryan Moats fallen out of favor with the coaches, or has Perry just impressed that much? I went to UMD and loved Perry while he played there. He's as tough a warrior as they come out there.

Big Weirdo Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 The Eagles will run all three this year. Perry will more than likely be the third stringer behind Moats. Moats is in the same mold as Westy just needs to work on his pass catching skills a little, IMO. I don't think he's fallen out of favor at all. I think its more that Perry has shown he can play. I really like Perry and I hope he gets a chance to shine this year. He's not a "big back" in the sense of being huge and physical but he certainly runs hard.

RiggoReincarnated Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 Well considering Perry ran 15 times for 70 yards against our defense, I'd say that's pretty damn good. Especially considering the way Cadillac Williams was stonewalled the next week. I hate to say this, but the Eagles may have the best 3 RB tandem overall in the division with Westbrook, Perry, and Moats. They all have different attributes they bring to the table offensively.

I think the thing about Perry is the fact that he runs with a chip on his shoulder. I remember when he got in Sean Taylor's face....the guy has spunk and an attitude that the team needs....

Westbrook36 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 BP has to stay healthy. He has all the tools to be our "Buckhalter" otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskool Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 whatever happened to that guy anyway? He is supposedly healthy again this year (remember he stays healthy every other year) but he really needs a fragile, handle with care sign on his back.

pvkeeper19 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I remember in his senior year where he ran for over 200 yards and 3 or 4 touchdowns against. In college he was a beast when he wasn't injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins4481 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Personally I think Ryan Moats should be the backup. I like the way he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Weirdo Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 As of right now the official Eagles depth chart goes: 1st team: Brian Westbrook 2nd team: Ryan Moats 3rd team: Bruce Perry And thats probably the way it will stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I'm a Terp also, and like Perry. But, he's fragile. I am shocked! SHOCKED. That the Eagles didn't get a big RB to make the hard yards in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdlives Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 If all three stay healthy all year the Eagles could be tough to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
