so are we ready to talk about next year yet?

[Eaglez]

Yeah, but who exactly are they going to spend it on? Is there anyone out there worth a ton of cash? The FA pool looks pretty slim at the moment.

[WEST is GOD]

Depends on who shakes free. There's still plenty of time.

Players like Julian Peterson, Hutchinson, Freeney, Darren Howard, Abraham, Reggie Wayne. All those are word big contracts.

Players like Joe Horn, Marvin Harrison could be cap casualties. They need to spend and spend big in the offseason. Settling on 2nd tier guys isn't going to cut it. The Eagles need to address their needs. Fred Beasley a real FB is on the market as well. Davenport is out there at RB. There's plenty of options.

[Eaglez]

I would throw money at Julian Peterson. If Freeney somehow becomes available then its a no brainer.

Other than that I don't know if I would big Reggie Wayne a big deal. I think he might be a product of Marvin Harrison.

FB is a must, too. But that won't break the bank.

Last year during the draft, when the Eagles were staying pat at #31, I was thinking it was the rumored trade to send that pick to NO for Darren Howard.  They obviously didn't, but I hope they get that rectified this offseason.  GET HOWARD!

New Orleans wanted more for Darren Howard than the 31st pick. Dallas offered to swap first round picks with them, the Siants getting No.11 and the Boys getting whatever pick NO had plus Howard and the Saints turned it down. They wanted a HIGH No.1 pick for him.

[Feva]

Well, even mo' better if we can grab him straight up as a FA then, huh?

He's not doing much this year. Only 3.5 sacks. I don't know if I want him. He's never been a dominant pass rusher, he's put up good numbers but he's not a guy who coaches gameplan for. The way Howard is playing this year and the way Abraham is always hurt, the draft might be the best idea. Abraham is a better "get to the QB" DE though so if we had to sign one it'd be Abraham.

[FreakisaKearseWord]

You're not going to get anyone worth TO's weight unless it's Randy Moss, Marvin Harrison, Torry Holt, and maybe Chad Johnson.

All of the other 4-5 teams lost today too (Minnesota plays tomorrow night), and the 3-6 teams that won still have worse opposing win percentages, so the Eagles are still stuck at #15 in terms of the draft...

No doubt, we'll run off 3-4 straight to end the season... putting us right up there in that wonderful 18-20 range.

That might make the Cardinals game interesting, but sadly, not the Skins game.

[rjs246]

The problem with figuring out what this team needs to address in the offseason is that the things that have broken down for this team (pressuring the QB, secondary play, O-line play) have been traditional strengths for this team.

Is this year an abberation or do we really need to think about whether Lito and Lewis are going to be detrimental to the defense? Will this team remember how to run block next year, or do we have to address the O-Line? Are Trent Cole and Jevon Kearse going to be consistant, or are they going to be pressuring the QB one week and completely invisible the next? If you had never watched this team and sat down and reviewed film from this year, you'd have to say that they need to replace half of the secondary, that they have no depth at DL and that two-thirds of the linebacker corps should be launched into the endless depths of space. But as fans we know that this same personel group (for the most part) has been a fantastic defense in the league.

Let the frustration and nonsense begin!
