Not that we didn't know it was coming, but he's free along with Warrick. We're in the market for WR depth.
Whaddya think? Is he about to be an Eagle?
I wouldn't mind.

Price was told before practice and sped out of the parking lot at team headquarters in his BMW just as the team was beginning to stretch for the day's drills.
"I hate y'all," Price said to an AJC photographer, before hustling into his car without further comment.
hahaha! what a toolbag.
I'm sure he would just love philly fans. Wah wah wah.
I wouldn't be suprised to see the Eagles go after him and Peter Warrick.

??? Gee his production dropped off? How many times was he hurt, Vick hurt, and playing as a 1 in a Run-first offense. He could be great 2 again. We could use depth and I would sponsor him or Warrick officially. :deion

I think they are too, but they still need "just-in-case" depth. That's why I wouldn't be shocked if they brought someone in.
who cares if he can be a #2. just pick him up cheap, put him on the field, and let him catch some balls. i realize he's not the star people thought he was, with t.o. and westbrook on the field, all you have to do is beat one guy and you're open.

I would go with Price if I had to choose, but someone earlier had said, bring them both in. What can it hurt, if all else fails, we burn them with T.O at the end of the season.
If nothing else he would be good for depth and as a veteran. He has good speed and pretty good hands. Maybe he'd excel as becoming the #2 guy again. Then we can work Reggie in gingerly. Most rookies hit a wall at some point in their rookie season. I'd rather have Price because Warrick is always hurt. The last thing we need are more injuries.

Whoa... bringing em both in is highly doubtful. You know the Eagles. They just don't go wild in free agency. If Price comes in I think he'd fit in well. We'd have a very productive season with WRs so we can put the "burning" on hold. 8)
stop with the #2 nonsense
you honestly think andy would bring a guy off the streets and put him ahead of lewis whos worked his ass off for two years to get to this spot..and has shown so far that he can handle it...not to mention warrick and price would be lost in the offense as the #2 guy
if they sign a wr i can guarantee it wont be a price or a warrick...it will be a mccants type who will come in for depth and be a #4 guy over mcscrub
Lewis prefers to play the slot, so if we bring Price in I doubt Price would play the slot. Price would play opposite of TO. You're right forget about numbering the WRs. Price wouldn't be #2 on the depth chart. He would be in on a lot of plays though.

Who are you and what have you done with out little buddy IGY?
First thing is first. Step 1 is bringing him in. Step 2 is evaluating his position on the roster after the year is over. Right now I'd prefer to just concentrate on what he can do for the Eagles if we bring him in. Unless the Eagles have someone else in mind that they really want, I can't see why Price wouldn't be a good fit. He's had success playing with a #1 in Moulds. He knows some of the WCO since the Falcons put it in last year. He's got good speed, good hands, and the Eagles need a veteran. We know the Eagles are going to sign one veteran. If not Price then who?

See, I never got that logic. Basically you are saying they won't bring someone who will step right in and start over guys who have worked hard all offseason. Well, no player they bring in will come right in and just start over those guys. Every player brought in has to earn their job. If Price comes in and earns his spot over Greg Lewis, then doesn't that help the team? When you run a football team you always want competition. You don't just settle for worse players because they will be slotted behind 2 guys who are better. If the Eagles like Mccants, then that is ok. But you don't just bring in a guy who is #4 quality. You bring in the best talent that you like that is available and see what they make of it.

Speaking of getting farged in the ass, from Pasquarfatty's column on Price...

Holy crap. :o
Clayton on NFL Live said the Pats, Cowboys, and forget who else contacted Price, and that Price called up the Eagles and the Seahawks.

Quote from: Monster on August 30, 2005, 04:43:36 PM
Clayton on NFL Live said the Pats, Cowboys, and forget who else contacted Price, and that Price called up the Eagles and the Seahawks.
I saw on another board where Clayton supposedly said the Eagles were talking to Warrick. Price's agents may have called the Eagles because although alluring as it might sound to play for the defending Pats, where and how is he going to play?
I'd take Price for the following reasons:
-- He's not a true #1 but would probably thrive in a secondary role See: Buffalo -- Moulds
-- Obviously he's pissed off with the Falcons, so what better way to stick it up their rear than by playing for their rival and a chance at possibly coming back to hurt them week 1, in Atl, on the national stage
-- Won't get a long term deal this late in the game, so he'd probably accept a 1 year 'audition for a future contract' ala Shawn Barber
-- If worse comes to worse he'd be the 4th best WR on this team regardless of what happens
-- I don't remember any clubhouse/off the field problems with him.
[Merril Reese]Peerless Price come on down![/Merril Reese]
Yes, bring him in. It's been said but he's probably a good fit as a #2 receiver and IMO he just didn't have a good QB to throw to him. His value cannot have dropped that much since the time he left Buffalo.
Here's my thoughts from a post on the EMB:
QuotePeerless, at the absolute best, would be no better than the 4th most important skill player on our offense. Defenses would be so concerned with matching up on TO or Westbrook, Peerless would just about ALWAYS be in single coverage... and not even against the top CB. Me thinks he could be more than serviceable in that situation.
If he can't beat out Lewis or Brown, hey... no problem, but we've improved our depth and experience at the position since we'd have someone other than TO with more than 23 career receptions. Since the Falcons cut him, we wouldn't have to deal with his big contract... which let's face it... is the real reason he's no longer a Falcon.
We don't need him to be a game-changer, but the potential for him to do so is certainly there.
1. While I wouldn't mind him here, I agree with IGY that Reid is likely to go after a guy who will be a 3/4 type and contribute on STs.
2. I'd only take him for the minimum.
3. I actually prefer Warrick right now to him.
I'd be interested if Philly took him at more than the minimum, but not much more. I think he could be a contributer based on his likely single coverage (as EagleFeva said)
i dont see any harm in this move. cut mcmullen sign price and use lewis and brown as well. if he isnt up to snuff he can be depth. sign him to a 1 yr contact.
I don't know if I like Warrick the more I read about him. He seems real whiney, he has had nagging injuries over the past few seasons, and just doesn't seem there mentally.
Yeah, sure, Peerless blew up a tad with a reporter in his face after he got cut, but I mean come on. He just lost a jackload of money very quickly and people are all up in his face about what he thinks about being cut. I would have reacted the same way "get the hell out of my face, I just lost millions of dollars!"
I'm actually surprised that the Falcons didn't contact Price beforehand so he didn't have to report to their training facility and be told then to go home.
I just think that maybe Price has better character, knows how to flurish in a #2 role, and can be a guy that can stretch the field.
And as someone else pointed out, he doesn't have to be the #2 on the depth chart, but he would play the "traditional" #2 role - being lined up on the outside opposite of TO.
I think it could be a good addition at a cheap price. Hopefully Peerless has something to prove and would sign for the minimum, or at least close to it.
If he wants to be here for one year I will take him up on that offer. It's not like we are going to spend tons of cap space anymore this year. One year can't hurt.
Id say no to Price, until I notice Billy McMullen is the Eagles #4. That will make you think funny things.
Give me him or Warrick at this point. I don't even care anymore. Just one. We need some friggin depth!

Exactly... see if he goes for the 1 yr deal and put him out there with something to prove. I guess I just don't see the downside to the move. We don't spend a ton on him... he'll give us some WR depth and he can potentially return to his old form in Buffalo because he doesn't have to be the man.
At absolute worst, we gave our 4th WR (I refuse to put him below Wilbur) a 1 year deal...
Exactly, but the Eagles love their receivers.
The Eagles are great in free agency, and know when to pay and when to not pay, but when it comes to receivers they are extremely cheap. Other than with TO where it took a world of convincing from Marty and Donovan, and a sitdown with TO.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they thought Mcmullen was fine.

It took that because Reid somehow magically knew that Owens is a farging nutjob. Prior to TO, there were no WRs available via free agency worth a damn - kind of like Price and Warrick.

I disagree. I think MDS is right IF they brought in someone like Price (which I don't think they will). I tend to believe they'll bring in another vet WR that WILL play the #4 spot behind Brown. BUT...Price would not be brought in to be a #4.

REASON #1324 THAT PRICE WILL NOT BE AN EAGLE: See if you can follow me on this one folks. Price would only go somewhere to be the #2 or #1 on a team. The Eagles would only sign him for one year. TO will be gone after this year. If we sign Price, both our #! and #2 receivers would be gone after this season. It's not going to happen.
They wouldn't sign Warrick or Price and put them at #4.
The #4 WR has to cover kicks, punts and play on all STs units.
Do you see Peerless Price covering punts? Exactly.
Owens
Price
Lewis
Brown
McMullen
Lewis and Price would see probably the same amount of snaps despite being 2-3 respectively. Call them 2a and 2b.
If Price was ever brought in, which he wont be, he would compete for a spot. If he was good enough to be the #2 he would be, if not, he would be the #4. It's not like Reid is gonna hand out a spot without competition.
I think Price would have to work his way up, so he would start (key word) at #4. It could be very likely that he winds up starting besides Owens, but I think he has to earn the right to take away reps from Lewis and Brown (who have been very good in the preseason). If he plays like he did in Atlanta, he'd fit nicely at #4. If he plays like he did in Buffalo, then we have a steal waiver wire pickup and a nasty recieving duo.

We could sign him to a multi-year deal, front-loaded of course to protect ourselves, and we'd have an insurance policy just in case Owens does depart next season.

I said there was no way we'd sign TO last year. I admit that I was wrong. But signing Price would be retarded. It would almost certainly be for one year, he would probably be our #2 or 3 and then after this year he would probably be gone. And since TO will probably also be gone we would be letting 2 of our top 3 WRs walk. Retarded.

Thank you sir.
Dude, we're trying to win a superbowl every year. The team has never said anything like 'this is the year that we're trying to win a superbowl and we'll do whatever we can for this year to do it.' That's what us fans say because we're desperate for a farging Lombardi trophy. The Eagles don't seem to think that way. They don't have a history of signing players for one year to "make-a-run right now" at the possible expense of future seasons and I don't see why they would do that now for a player who isn't really all that good.
Signing Price or Warrick wouldn't be a move for the future because I can't imagine why the eagles would give either of them a long-term contract after several disappointing seasons by each.
Our FO makes some surprise moves, no doubt. I was utterly floored when they signed Jevon Kearse on the first day of free agency. Frankly, with all the stuff going on with T.O., I always thought he was a possibility... but the Kearse thing was probably the most surprising move they've made in recent memory.
Still, that was the first day of free agency. The Eagles are very close to starting the season, and spending more than the minimum on a one-year audition player at a very finicky position is just really unlikely.
I would put the odds of adding a guy like Warrick at 100:1 and the odds of adding Price at stone cold zero.
A guy like McCants fits the profile a lot better. He won't cost a lot, he won't ruffle the depth chart much, but he still would improve the depth at the bottom of the WR ranks and has the upside to contribute beyond 2005.
rjs must have laid off the bottle last night, he's very lucid right now, making complete sense. it's scary, someone hold me.
I don't see the problem with ruffling the depth chart. I'd much rather bring someone in who can challenge for a starting spot than bringing someone in solely for the purpose of being a #4.
I don't think you can rule out either Price or Warrick, but it is highly unlikely. It hurts the fact that neither would be on the coverage team of special teams, although Warrick might be a temporary solution as a return man.

I would have agreed with that completely is we weren't right on top of the season. I just don't see a lot of advantage to Price. He sucked in Atlanta (granted he isn't a number one and had a running back throwing to him but he still sucked). I doubt he would come to the Eagles with the knowledge that he would start so lw on the dpeth chart and have to learn a rather complex offense. And I think the Eagles would only sign him for one year meaning that no matter how well he played he'd be gone, along with TO after this season. I just don't see it.

If Price comes here, it'll be as the #2 (outside) receiver opposite Owens, while Lewis will primarily play the slot.
REASON #1324 THAT PRICE WILL NOT BE AN EAGLE: See if you can follow me on this one folks. Price would only go somewhere to be the #2 or #1 on a team. The Eagles would only sign him for one year. TO will be gone after this year. If we sign Price, both our #! and #2 receivers would be gone after this season. It's not going to happen.
We could sign him to a multi-year deal, front-loaded of course to protect ourselves, and we'd have an insurance policy just in case Owens does depart next season.
I hope there is no "just in case" about it. The guy's a grade-a fleshpopsucker.

Mr. NC: "Price is high maintenance and we have enough of that" :paranoid
You people do realize that we're trying to win a Super Bowl THIS year right?
tell that to corey simon
Instead of signing a guy to walk right in to be the #4 guy, shouldn't we sign a guy who is #2 quality like Warrick is capable of or Price and let them make forge their own destiny? Do you honestly think the FO says "Hey let's go after Mccants. He isn't as good as Lewis or Brown so he can be our 4th guy." You think that is what they do? I think when they get together they say something like "OK let's bring in the most talented players and see what spot they earn on this team."
Why in the hell would you want to stunt the growth of Lewis and Brown? THEY are our #2 and #3 WRs. There is no need for a guy like Warrick or Price on the team! We're already SET with our 1-2-3 WRs.
Let it go. Cripes.
Set? When you are a football team you never should be set. You should ALWAYS welcome someone to come in and improve the team. What does it hurt to bring Warrick or Price in? I'm sorry, but if they come in and play better than Lewis or Brown then they take the job. Wouldn't the Eagles welcome that? Wouldn't the Eagles always want their team to be better? If you bring in a player and he turns out to be better then it is nothing but good for your team. If they aren't better then we have quality players at depth. Warrick is still young, was the 4th pick overall and IMO still has a chance to be a stud.
Thank you Monster, someone else is making sense here.
How bringing in someone with the proven talent to be an NFL starter stunts the growth of younger receivers is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. At the very minimum, it makes them play harder knowing that there's someone else waiting to take their spot.
It's stubborn and stupid to think that just because we have people at the moment in the #2 and 3 spots, that they are the best possible situation.
It's also fairly bone-headed to think Peerless Price would come to the Eagles for a reasonable dollar amount with absolutely no promise of starting. He was beaten out by Dez White in Atlanta, so don't you think he'd be a little bit concerned about being buried on the depth chart in Philadelphia?
You could say that, but keep in mind Price is the one who called the Eagles. The Eagles didn't call him. If he didn't want to come here, he wouldn't have made the call.

Agreed, I don't want to spend a butt-load on him either. He's going to eventually have to sign with someone, and it's not going to be for top dollar anywhere for the reasons you listed. It just boggles my mind how some people think healthy competition for a starting spot is bad for any team.

I can cross this one off of my "Things I'll Never Hear During My Lifetime" list.
Although, Monster's post does carry some truth to it though. A team should always be looking for ways to improve. It's an ongoing process that never ends. So I'm certain that if Reid feels that any of the available receivers can help the team, then he's going to bring them in for a look. If he doesn't think they'll help, we'll never see them.
I don't really care if they sign someone or not. If Reid's comfortable with what he's got and doesn't think that Price or anyone else provides a significant upgrade over the current recievers then it's good enough for me. But just remember, if the Eagles don't sign anyone it doesn't mean that they aren't looking to improve the team. It means they've already got the best available players.
My thing is that I have very little confidence in Reggie Brown in his rookie year. I think he'll be an absolute stud down the line, but you know how rookie WRs are in this system. They just don't do well. If things go wrong with Reggie then we have to go to Darnerian Frickin Mccants. Wouldn't you rather have Warrick or Price there instead?

Price is still a primadonna and it will take him at least another week to week and a half to realize that... or he won't have to realize it if an idiotic GM steps up and hands him a starting gig no questions asked.

I think Reggie is poised to have a very productive year by comparison to other rookie receivers during Reid's tenure. So far, Freddie had the most productive rookie year. His stats weren't mind blowing by any means but they were decent. They were also with James Thrash and Todd Pinkston along side of him. Having TO on the field is going to help just about any receiver playing with him and teams know who Greg Lewis is too. They're going to have to account for both of those guys along with Westbrook which should free up a lot of room for Reggie.

Rookies don't do well because they don't get an opportunity to play probably because they sucked and were stupid. Apparently Reggie Brown neither sucks nor is stupid. At least I can't think of any rookie that got any where close to significant playing time.
I wish I had the confidence in him that you do, but I just don't. I could pretend I did, and talk about how much confidence I have, but it would be all lies. Down the line I think he'll be a heck of a player, but this year I'm not comfortable with him getting a lot of balls. Small mistakes like he made against the Bengals where he went flat and could've easily had a TD scare me. More power to you for being confident in him. I wish I was in your boat, but I can't trust them with receivers.

Reggie's gotten a lot of time with the first team offense so far. Probably more than any other rookie reciever that Reid's drafted. So he's already a step ahead in terms of playing in the offense and with McNabb. RE: the Bengals game. Perfect example of what I'm talking about. If that situation ever comes up again, Reggie will be in the right spot. I'm sure McNabb talked to him about it once they got off the field and they probably did a little flim review after the game to make sure it sinks in.
And it's not so much the confidence in Reggie that I have but in the coaching staff. If they think Reggie (or any other player) can't be counted on if their number gets called, them I'm certain they'll bring in someone if they feel that individual can perform.

Still doesn't hurt the Eagles to make an offer. If someone comes along and outbids the Eagles for him, then hey... the Eagles tried. Price's rep in the league is ish right now. He NEEDS a year to prove that he can still get it done in order for him to get some real $$$. I wouldn't be surprised if he's looking for a short term deal instead of being locked in long term to a low money deal that he's likely to get now.
Look... I'm not sitting here with a stiffy for Price, but I just don't see the downside to bringing in a proven WR to compete with Lewis and Brown. I also don't see the upside to simply bringing in just another body. Again, if Lewis and Brown beat Price/Warrick/McCants/Ferguson/Whoever... then we've simply added depth. If Glew and Reggie can't beat out Price or whoever... then our offense just got better because we've upgraded. We're not going to pay much for another WR anyway. But we have the potential to add even ANOTHER weapon to the offense and make it that much tougher to defend.
Who's to say the Eagles didn't make price an offer, or at least call and get an idea?

The thing is we won't know until the season starts. Say it's week 4 and he's struggling. He's running bad routes. Now what do we do? Mccants isn't the best in between the 20s guy. All the good FAs are scooped up. We are screwed.

Im sorry, but exactly what QB was McCants receiving from the past few years again?
You're right. Just to be safe, we should sign every FA WR currently on the market.
Eagles 2005 WR roster:
Terrell Owens
Greg Lewis
Reggie Brown
Peerless Price
Peter Warrick
Koren Robinson
Darnerian McCants
Billy McMullen
Carlos Perez
We'll just have to go light on the lines. No problem, because injuries are never an issue there at all.
Rock on.
Putting McMullen that low on the list is just plain st00pid.
That is irrelevant. Just because he had bad QBs throwing to him, doesn't mean he is going to come in here and turn into a star. I just find it funny that other than TO the Eagles never get the big name receiver. They always go for the lesser named players. Now I don't mind that once in a while, but if they keep doing it, it's hard to think of them as something other than cheap at that position. Other than last season our receivers were absolute garbage. I can't trust them yet. Maybe some day down the line I will, but right now I can't. They've been too bad with receivers.

You don't have to go overboard. I'm not asking for too much. I'm asking for one out of Price or Warrick. You guys act like I am asking for the world here. Warrick won't be very expensive. When teams like the Colts and the Packers and the Patriots who are already crazy deep at WR want him, why can't a team that is extremely thin bring in Mccants and Warrick? Is that really too hard to believe? The only reason it's too hard to believe is because Warrick is a big name and Eagles rarely bring in big names. So why can other teams afford to bring him in and not us? We have more cap space than those teams I just listed. I'm not asking for the Eagles to trade for Moss here. I'm asking them to sign Peter Warrick. He's going to cost very little. It's not that big of a deal.

In case you missed it in the NFL section, there are rumors in Dallas that Price will visit Philly tomorrow, and when Spadaro was asked on EMB, he gave a "No comment"... :paranoid
Sounds more like Price and his agent saying, "if you don't sign me now (to Dallas), we're heading out to Philly...got it?"
Call up yer source... :P
As if.
If it's true then maybe Price being vocal about wanting to be here got his attention.

I wouldn't be surprised if after last night, the Eagles are maybe somewhat slightly possibly perhaps considering adding both McCants and Price. That would pretty much guarantee T.O. the door after 2005 and would create some interesting battles on the depth chart this year.
I would still say the chances of signing Price are approaching zero.
FYI, Spadaro just clarified his "no comment" with....

I'd say the chances are 99% it's McCants unless there's a surprise final cut, like Rashaun Woods, Josh Reed, or Jimmy Smith for instance.
The Eagles are going to add McCants regardless, IMO. They will decide if they want to add ANOTHER receiver.
If they sign both then Mccants should play TE. He's built like Gates, I think he'd be a great TE. One of those athletic ones. LJ is athletic too, but not as athletic as Mccants.

Price's agent rejects offer from Cowboys
Receiver, courted by four teams, wants long-term contract
09:01 PM CDT on Friday, September 2, 2005
By JEAN-JACQUES TAYLOR and TODD ARCHER / The Dallas Morning News
IRVING – Coach Bill Parcells said he met with free-agent receiver Peerless Price Friday morning to discuss how he would fit into the Cowboys' offense.
Later, the Cowboys offered him a contract.
"It's nothing to make us move right now," said Tim McGee, Price's agent. "The ball is in their court."
McGee said he sent the Cowboys the parameters of what it would take to reach a deal. Price will visit the Saints in San Antonio today. The Cowboys are one of four teams to make Price an offer.
[an error occurred while processing this directive]
Parcells said the meeting went well.
"I told Peerless he would have to make his own role," Parcells said.
Parcells said Price, waived earlier this week by Atlanta, wants a long-term contract.
"I think he does have quickness, and I think he is receptive to coaching. And he has been productive in the league," said Parcells, "but as I told you I wouldn't get too presumptuous on this one."
Price arrived in Dallas last night and watched the final quarter of the Cowboys' preseason win over Jacksonville with owner Jerry Jones before having dinner with quarterback Drew Bledsoe.
"He has to decide where he wants to play. We've explored that, but I don't think anything is final," Parcells said.
Did he visit yet today?
Quote from: Monster on September 03, 2005, 03:04:12 PM
Did he visit yet today?
I just saw Peerless and Andy over at Modell's down at the Quaker Bridge Mall shopping for receiver gloves. Weird.
Holding hands?
Of course. Otherwise Price would get lost.
I noticed that someone mentioned Josh Reed earlier in the thread.
You can forget that. I watched the Buffalo game last night and he looked like shtein. Actually, I couldn't believe my eyes how bad he was playing so I asked the Buffalo guys if that was typical of his recent play and they all concured that he's sucked it up pretty bad.
:P
Does he have a history of injuries?
It says on ESPN the Cowboys signed Price, but the link isn't working right now.
QuoteThe Dallas Cowboys won the Peerless Price sweepstakes Saturday, reaching agreement on a one-year contract worth $2 million.
Price
The Cowboys beat out the Patriots, Dolphins and Saints in a competitive couple days of recruiting and negotiating with Price, who was released by the Atlanta Falcons in the cutdown to 65 earlier in the week.
On Friday, the numbers were at the $1.5 million level. The Cowboys finished the negotiations Saturday afternoon by offering the wide receiver $2 million for the season, including $500,000 in a signing bonus.
Price sat in Jerry Jones' owners box during the Cowboys preseason finale against the Texans. Price had just visited with the Patriots and Dolphins, but the Cowboys continued pitching their team and coach Bill Parcells.
Price won't automatically be thrust into the starting lineup. He will compete at the split end position and possibly share time with starters Terry Glenn and Keyshawn Johnson. Patrick Crayton had beaten out Quincy Morgan for the No. 3 role, but that goes to Price unless he gets the opportunity to start.
Morgan might be among the team's final cuts.
1 year 2 million dollars.
I doubt the Eagles even talked to him. What a joke. :boo
We couldn't get him for one year?
Shut the farg up already. Seriously, what the farg has price done to justify a $2 mil one year deal? When he might be the fourth receiver on the team, and doesn't play ST? Stop whining about everything.
i think he was giving his opinion.
anyway, that's not a bad deal for price, imo...give him 1 year & let him prove himself. i'm not big on him but i wouldn't have minded if the eagles gave him a look.
Grow up, dude. If you can't handle a passionate sports fan getting angry and complaining once in a while then message boards aren't for you. Message boards are place where people with varying opinions come and express them. If you want an Eagles suckfest then start your own forum called just that.
It's the same opinion over and over and over and over again. We get it....now shut up or make more sense.
You are the one complaining. My goodness, take it like a man.

That is one of the things that makes forums useful. They are places to vent your frustrations and express that and your opinions. Seriously, man in your profile it says you are 34 farging years old and you can't handle some complaints?
I can't understand why you'd complain so mightily that the Eagles didn't sign a guy for $2 million that might not be able to crack the top 3 in the depth chart. I guarantee they considered him and possibly even had some preliminary talks, but you don't pay $2 million to a WR on a one year contract. That's more often a bust than a boom.
It's one year. If he doesn't work out then it doesn't hurt us. He's gone next year and we are way under the cap anyway.
Mccants is someone I've always kinda liked, but he doesn't know this system. Price does. That is the difference.
One year contracts don't hurt this team period. We are way under the cap, we can afford to sign a bust. We could've signed Price AND Mccants. If Price sucks then we cut him and use Mccants.
i think price is a lot more proven than greg lewis or reggie brown. he had 2 very good years as a #2 for buffalo...sure, he never became the #1 atlanta wanted but he's certainly more proven/experienced than g-lew or brown.
just sayin'.
If Price chose the Cowboys over the Eagles then fine. I wouldn't have a problem with that. I just get the feeling that the Eagles didn't even have any serious talks with him about him coming here. My guess is they were casual talks and he would've came here if we offered what the Cowboys did.
Maybe, just maybe, Reid & Heckert didn't really like Price as a player.

You don't know how close the Eagles always end up cutting it. I guarantee they will end up at just about $2m under the cap, just incase a desperate situation occurs. They will re-sign/extend at least 2-3 guys this off-season and structure big chunks of that as roster bonuses so the cap hit after 2005 is not painful.
Saying that $2m is "nothing" this year is just foolish talk. It shows a decidedly detached knowledge (or lack thereof) of managing the salary cap in the NFL.

You've been saying the same thing for a farging week. Everyone knew it was going to be McCants...and recent Eagles history-- winning history-- projected the same. I'm not the one complaining...I'm just the one sick of hearing you whine about just about everything this week.
Neither Price or McCants were more than prospective depth moves anyway. You're pissed over a depth move? Come on. Haven't the Eagles been proven right in their personnel moves more often than not? Just sit back and watch it unfold. It's not like they're waiting for your approval anyway.
I'm not going to agree with that. 2 million dollars is not going to be the difference. Obviously the Cowboys didn't think it was going to be.'
Also last year I remember reading the Eagles were only 5 under at the season's beginning. 12 million to 5 is a big difference. I don't think the Eagles will be close to the cap this year.

You're wrong.
The Eagles always cut it closer than you'll ever hear about unless you actually bothered to pay attention. They make quiet, small moves to advance salary into the current year, and they almost exclusively use roster bonuses to extend contracts. It's really quite brilliant, as advertised.

Teams that are consistently finding ways to make/clear room are the ones that are forced to dig themselves out of cap jail only a few years later. $2m for Peerless Price is not a good value for the cap dollar.

farg that dude. You've been the first to bitch about every move the Eagles have made in the last few weeks, let alone the WR thing. 2 mil for a guy like Price for one year is a joke. Rumor has it McCants was brought in for the vet minimum or slightly more. I see McCants having more upside. If you bring in Price for 2 mil and he stinks it up the way he did in the ATL, you're screwed. McCants? So what.

I'm angry that the Eagles didn't even attempt to bring him in(as far as I know) and I'm going to rip on the Eagles until I'm no longer pissed about it. That is one of the things that makes forums useful. They are places to vent your frustrations and express that and your opinions. Seriously, man in your profile it says you are 34 farging years old and you can't handle some complaints?
You've been saying the same thing for a farging week. Everyone knew it was going to be McCants...and recent Eagles history-- winning history-- projected the same. I'm not the one complaining...I'm just the one sick of hearing you whine about just about everything this week.
Neither Price or McCants were more than prospective depth moves anyway. You're pissed over a depth move? Come on. Haven't the Eagles been proven right in their personnel moves more often than not? Just sit back and watch it unfold. It's not like they're waiting for your approval anyway.
Don't tell me how to be a fan.
Somebody has to.
QuoteWhen something is done that I don't agree with I'm going to let it be known.
I heard you the first time you said it earlier in the week. Letting it be known the other 1000 times doesn't change reality or how you feel about it.
QuoteThat is the way I'm a fan. When something is not done when I think it should have been then I am going to be angry.
Tell the truth, you wanted Norman Hand, didn't you? Admit it. Kenny Holmes?
QuoteIt's text, it's not audio. I think you can deal with complaining. Once the season starts you won't hear very much of it from me.
That'll be sweet.
I've said plenty of times before the only time I don't trust them is with receivers. I am one of the few who didn't care about not getting Sam Adams when we had Walker. I am one of the few that didn't complain about letting go of 2 pro bowl corners. I also didn't care about letting Hugh or Brian Mitchell go. I trust the Eagles except with receivers. As for your other comments, it's the same as I just said. I'm not going to change as a fan or how I go about voicing my opinions. I'm sorry if it bothers you, but that's too bad.
farg that dude. You've been the first to bitch about every move the Eagles have made in the last few weeks, let alone the WR thing. 2 mil for a guy like Price for one year is a joke. Rumor has it McCants was brought in for the vet minimum or slightly more. I see McCants having more upside. If you bring in Price for 2 mil and he stinks it up the way he did in the ATL, you're screwed. McCants? So what.
I have nothing to add, I just like the mountain of quotes.
You ought to love this one then, GF!
I might as well add on...
(Hell, even I gave this one up Monster.)
hi.

That is the worst idea you've had since edible jockey shorts.
You didn't taste the mint flavored ones.
