Woo. ..?

[MDS]

3 years ago I cream my pants, now I just get a better than Dhani Jones boner

[Munson]

Both Spadaro and Heckert have been hinting at a trade for a LB so...this wouldn't suprise me. Looks like they'll bring in Spikes, cut Dhani, give Gocong more time to develop into whatever the hell he's going to be, and let Gaither stay at WIL.

[The BIGSTUD]

Spikes is at the NC complex right now and he is the reason Andy came back from a hiatus!!

Spikes in Eagle green!

Taykeo Spikez1!111!11!

Woo. ..?

When was this said??!!

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Apparently they said on Sportscenter that the Eagles are now the frontrunners to get Spikes and a trade is "imminent"...

I'd rather have Vilma.

did anyone else see this on SC?

Ed doesnt know stuff, he makes it up 

I'm all for this, If he's trotts replacement thats fine.  We can get probably 3 more years out of Spikes.  Maybe get a younger guy in the draft and groom them, or just sneak into the Steelers facility and see what LB's they are scouting. 

[ice grillin you]

Igy, for you to say you would rather have Dhani than him is crazy talk

never said id rather have dhani...i just wouldnt give up anything for spikes...hell be 31 before the end of the season is an achilles survivor coming off a terrible year where he had 10 less tackles than dhani jones...the guy had 43 tackles the entire season...awful

would i rather have him than dhani of course....do i think this is a steal or some sort of power move no...simply put i wouldnt trade anything for him or give him a big rework on his deal...as i said i also dont think hes a sam anymore (tho hes still probably better than dhani)

i want a quality young guy to develop...im tired of stop gap guys in their 30's...takeo spikes isnt taking this team to the superbowl...and i dont think they should give up a draft pick and a new contract to someone like that just because i hate dhani jones

[Seabiscuit36]

Get Levon!

If they give up a 6th or 5th, do it.  Maybe package Walker.  Anyone have a rough idea what Walkers value would be?  He had 7 or 8 sacks last year, I read somewhere last year that he's in the top 6 for DT sacks over the past 5 years?  Could he somehow net you back a 3rd?

[ice grillin you]

no way is walker worth a day one pick...i think hes more like a 5th...im not sure why you trade him tho...as we stand here now hes their best interior lineman

you cant think hes worth a third and at the same time be so cavalier about dealing him...i mean is such a good player hell net you a third or does he stink and you want him gone?

i personally deal him because the eagles are treating this upcoming season as a wasted one with mcnabb no good...and thats fine...so start a rebuilding process by getting as many young players in here as possible that could potentially turn into big time players down the road

Spikes apparently IS at the Novacare Center this morning

Spikes apparently IS at the Novacare Center this morning

Here we go again.

[Rome]

My buddy is a Buffalo fan and he's despondent over potentially losing Spikes.

He was furious when the Flyers got Biron but now he's angry and maybe a little suicidal.

I'm not kidding either.   


PS: It's gonna be really funny when the Flyers snap up Daniel Briere in free agency this summer.
