The 2010 Point and Laugh at the Eagles thread

[Munson]

veteran safety? The FO needs to look at this guy, they had horrible play from the safeties last year. This Fraley guy has some good size for safety.

-- Mike Bell will be in town tomorrow

-- If you've ever visited The700Level.com for Eagles stuff, they're partnering with CSN

[Rome]

That could have been you, Ed.

But then again, you just don't know corporate whoring, so...

[ice grillin you]

bell is coming in today and staying overnight to talk to reporters tomorrow...no deal announced but it sure sounds like one is forthcoming

of course even if it is new orleans can match

[rjs246]

Is there a less exciting player in the NFL than Mike Bell?

rock cartwright

[rjs246]

His name alone gives him a higher q-rating than Mike farging Bell.

winston justice

Its hard to get excited about any RB they bring in between Weaver and McCoy I don't see too many other carries available.  As we all know this team does not run the ball that much. 

[BigEd76]

signed a 1-yr $1.7M offer sheet w/ incentives that could push it over $2M.  NO has 7 days to match or get nothing in return

i read this morning that the top 8 teams from last year cannot sign another teams restricted free agent unless they lose one of their own first.  did not know that.

I think they can if the RFA isn't tendered. There was a point where Sproles, Jahri Evans and Dumerville were non-tendered RFAs,  but I'm not sure the first 2 weren't locked up long term before they could sign an offer sheet.

Edit: come to think of it, why don't the Eagles give up their 1st and 3rd for Dumervil? Maybe move Cole to the left.

[phattymatty]

not sure if this is old news or not.

Saints RB Mike Bell has signed an offer sheet from the Eagles ... Saints have one week to match offer

nm, it is.

not after giving up a 4th for tapp.

[ice grillin you]

i think id give up a 1 and 3 for demeco ryans before dumervil anyway

you can also get thomas howard for a second

thomas davis for a 1 & 3

oj atogwae for free (with right to match)

kirk morrison for a 3

dqwell jackson for a 2

jerome harrison for a 2

richard marshall for a 2

ray edwards for a 1


not saying id do any or all of those...but you can also maybe work with some of these teams to lower the price...especially with a jackson or harrison..anway there are some really good restricted options still out there for the eagles
