McCants it is. He's the Newest Eagle.

Id rather the Eagles get Levens for no pick, rather than give up a pick for a player who I feel is less adequate.   Thats why I am employed as a GM in the NFL.  nice.

Meh....a sixth round pick is nothing to major, and taking a flyer on Gordon, who has already made it in the NFL on a run first team isn't terrible. I'd like to see him brought in for depth, and have Dorsey come in for this year. But I don't think the Eagles will carry that many backs. I would be pissed if they brought Gordon in instead of Dorsey.

It's a tough call, because even if they do bring in Levens, this should definately be the last year he'd play, so I would like to see them bring in someone younger with similar skills they could develop over time to give them what Dorsey does. One guy I like, who went seventh in this years draft to the Skins was Nehemiah Broughton (5-11 250) out of The Citadel. He has looked like a excellent blocker and short-yardage back. Real punishing runner. So....if we could find something along those lines late in the draft next year...I'd say stick it out with Dorsey one more time.

gordon would be a nice pickup, imo.  he's better insurance than levens in case something happens to westbrook.  of course, moats is there too.
anyway, gordon > levens and mahe.

I don't think Gordon is necessarily better than Levens.  A lot more upside, though.

And, seriously, we're hopefully talking about maybe 50 touches all season.

More Mahe please.

I think McCants signed.

Check out his poetry...Put the capitals together...

Does he think he's clever?  Hoo boy.

Anyway, conveniently, #85 is wide open on the Eagles roster already.  I'm sure they're just waiting to announce until they make all the rest of the cuts.

Like I said, McCants is in... now do they replace the winner of the McMullen/Perez battle (IMO McMullen wins) with someone like Price?  I guess it's an extremely remote possibility.

I Belive I CAN FLY...

I usE to think thAt i could not Go on, and LifE waS just an awful song
but now i know the meaning of true love
if i can see it then i can be it
if i just belive then i can do it
I belive i can fly
I belive i can touch the sky
I think about it everyday
spread wings and fly away

I like the signing to be honest & I think he fits better w/ the Eagles than he did w/ the foreskins. Hopefully he blossoms into a good Wr...He certainly has the talent to do so.

The only way I see them bringing in another wideout is if they find someone who can step in immediately as the #2.  That means a receiver who has a strong background in the WCO.  Peerless Price, Jimmy Smith, Fred--nah won't even go there.  :boom :-D
More Mahe please.
