trotter cut

[Rome]

No, McCoy's gotta stay for no other reason than he's great on special teams.

he's great on special teams

[Phanatic]

The Giants fan that sits next to me said he'd love to have him play for the Giants on running downs.

This is the ultimate oxymoron, but what a dumb Giants fan. Did you enlighten him to the fact that his play on running downs is what cost him his job?

Nah... I didn't want him to leak that information to the coaching staff or anything...

....and certifiably insane. Where's the pick with the farged up eyes?



Seriously though, Stewie could be great, but he has never played MLB in a game. He's not a backup yet.

Somewhere out there, the GF's of the world are celebrating this news.

I still want to know why trotter is going to be present at the 1:30 press conference.

[mussa]

GF is prob drinking to this news

Reid is making him push a blocking sled.

[phattymatty]

because he's been with the team for years and they're going to pretend that this was a mutual decision.

I still want to know why trotter is going to be present at the 1:30 press conference.

Probably because he is going to talk. Probably about getting cut. Hell, he might even talk about how he loves the city and loved his time here. Something outlandish like that.

Hopefully at the end he does one final wood chop, grimaces, and holds his knee.

Yikes. My pops woke me up just now to tell me this. I like the move considering he was finished last year, but still figure he can be a decent back up/leader on the team. But I guess Andy gave him the shot to go elsewhere and play. Oh well. Maybe the Skins will sign him.

see andys press release about trotter from this morning

[Feva]

Still can't believe this shtein.  My phone's been blowing up with calls and texts too.

We all knew this was coming and all that, but I at least didn't see it happening until next season as they got Gaither a little more time at MLB and I'm OK with it, I guess... but damn, this is sudden as hell.

They're putting a lot of faith in the young guys... and really anybody behind Gaither.  Even so... it's pretty damn hard to believe that the Eagles feel that Dedrick Roper or somebody is more valuable than Trotter right now.

Me thinks they better have a backup plan.

[PhillyPhanInDC]

Urlakerz!!11!

[PhillyGirl]

Me thinks they better have a backup plan.

I don't. This is vintage Eagles. Go into the offseason weak at a position and try to fake their way through.

I'm starting to really not like this more and more. Regardless of his knees.
