Darren Sproles, Philadelphia Eagle

[SD]

Back on a one year deal

[Diomedes]

Love the guy...but.

Only good thing I see coming from this is a higher chance he retires as an Eagle.

[General_Failure]

If he can still go and doesn't have to be used more than five times a game, great.

[Eagles_Legendz]

Should've turned the page

[ice grillin you]

If he's heslthy he could be an important piece as a punt returner

they don't have anyone there unless it's a high leverage situation where they use pimp

[Rome]

They might have the best 2011 squad in the league with Pimp, Sproles, Peters, et al.

I know you can do basic math but that's 80 touches.  Come now.

[General_Failure]

I know you can do basic math

That's a bold assumption.

Last year was the first year where I thought he had no explosion on punt returns.  It's good to have someone back who can just catch the ball, but I didn't feel he had much left there either.

[Rome]

Assuming he gets 20 a game, he should end up with a total of 80 for the season.

Math.

[Diomedes]

Yes, math.  You're saying he'll be healthy for the post season, and the Eagles win another Super Bowl.

[Rome]

I'd be seriously happy with 10 touches a game from him.  I can't conceive of a reason why he would ever be called to run a ball out of the backfield, though.

But Dougie gonna do Dougie every once in a while. 

[SD]

Howard, Sanders...and except for the sb Clement aren't receivers out of the backfield. Sproles fills that need and pk.

[MDS]

he looked washed up to me last year, but healthier and a limited role? i guess.

question is do they keep 5 backs now. sanders, howard, sproles, clement, smallwood. josh adams they try to hide on the PS

IMO explosion is overrated on punt returns...in a perfect world you'd love to have devin Hester or Dante hall but assuming sproles isn't completely done I think he can be a late career Brian Mitchell type...who can read holes won't fumble and can have a nice return average...it certainly can't hurt to audition him...they don't have anyone for the job now
