Die Hard Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Unlike most here... I happen to like the Eagles under Andy Reid. I like almost everything about the team accept 99% of their fans And the tradeoff for Hugh Douglas for Jevon Kearse was brilliant. Not paying the aging player in decline and even waiting a season to find an adequate replacement. Although it's tempting to fill every hole every offseason.... sometime you have to wait to find the right player to fit the hole. Even if it takes a year or two. And the Kearse signing was perfect for you guys. He's perfect for your defensive system. Now if you traded your first round pick for Owens.... you'd be laughing. I'm not sure if the Eagles can get by without both Taylor and Vincent... even with Dawkins. You'd think they'd sign 1 more starting corner... but that's not a given. Still.. it's nice to see your owner finally show a commitment to the team. Otherwise, I think the team was destined for a decline. Should be a heckuva NFC fight for the next 5 years.

panel Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Eagles have a good Blueprint that cycles them in contention each year, HOWEVER They have always used the draft to cycle players, this is the first time they have tried the FA out with their plan, I need to wait and see if this can work out before I praise them on a good move.

jbooma Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 I am curious what our Philly friends are feeling right now. If they land TO as well :thud: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskool Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Eagles did a very good job updating their RDE position. Kearse is a giant upgrade from Kalu. Their secondary will have to be addressed, as I dont think they will keep Vincent or Taylor. I dont think that Sheppard or Brown are ready to carry the load. As long as you stay with Pinky, Trash and fat mouth freddy, you guys are all right with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qb18_200400 Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Kalu was acually coming around for us. then what happened? Just like the rest of Norv's BS, he got rid of him. Do you realize, we had David Akers(i know we have Hall nowbut we would've had to go through all that BS) But i know he's only a kicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles_Legendz Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Thanks DH. Apparently Bryant or Fred Thomas will sign by tommorrow. Neither is a number 1, but both are #2s. Wouldn't be thrilling but it would be OK. If the TO rumors come true? I'd be in heaven. The Eagles biggest PR man just stated a few mins ago: "Nothing official, that's for sure. Let's say there seems to be a whole lot of smoke in that direction. Just hope there's some fire to go with it. You know how these things work. Scenarios change very quickly. " Keeping my fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DE skinsmaniac Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Man, I have to deal with these idiot Iggle fans every day here in DE. That's a lot of money for a man with a bum foot. I just hope TO ends up in Philly, When that cancer only gets 60 balls next year (in that Andy Reid offense) he will eat up their cap money, tear apart that team and really set those goon fans off. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
