College Players The Eagles Are Interested In

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

If you assume Spadaro/McPherson know absolutely no *inside* information, you're an idiot.

If you assume they know mostly everything, you're also an idiot.

<--------------idiot


the only inside info they get is the inside info that the eagles want disseminated to their fans....therefore they get no inside info

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I know for a fact that you're wrong and that they occasionally get a few pieces of info that they're not to disseminate and also occasionally just pick up things by listening around the complex.

[ice grillin you]

things like they knew TO was parking his car in handicap spots before we did...im talking about player personnel information...they know nothing

who really cares exactly what he knows and doesnt know...when it comes to anything of importance spads is a worthless clown...weve spent way to much time on him already

[MURP]

obviously anyone who works for the Eagles surely hears things from time to time just like anyone else who hears things at their job about their own company.   Im sure Spads and their crew get some bits that we dont hear.  Point is that they really dont get much info.   Just read McPhersons blog.

- He said he read about the Schoebel signing in the Cinci paper.
- On Ed Jasper "This signing was out of left field for me. I simply knew there was going to be a press conference"
- The Khalif Barnes thing last year.
- On hearing things: 

I laughed when I saw how I would be burned at the fire with Mark Eckel if I started spreading bad rumors about who the Eagles were going to sign. Working at the NovaCare Complex, you get to hear things - not all things that I should be hearing - that most reporters won't get to hear.

That's why reporters depend on sources, usually agents. Everyone has 'em. But changes in the organization from a year-to-year basis could remove reporters' key sources. Eckel's boy was Marc Ross, who worked under Tom Modrak's regime. Once Ross left, Eckel has had to look elsewhere for his stories.

But there are times our own PR department will be caught by surprise. They found out about Jevon Kearse from the ticker on ESPN in 2004.

If you assume Spadaro/McPherson know absolutely no *inside* information, you're an idiot.

I'm under this impression but that doesn't mean I'm not an idiot.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Well, they do know some things, whether you agree or not.

I think the draft is the thing Andy keeps closest to the vest now, though.  Spuds and McPherson can only speculate on that right now, because there's no way he's giving them any information that he doesn't want out there... which means everything they're getting is a smokescreen for the actual truth.

Eagles | Bennett to work out
Thu, 13 Apr 2006 09:47:43 -0700

Lafayette College LB Maurice Bennett is scheduled to have a work out with the Philadelphia Eagles Thursday, April 13.

[Wingspan]

well, one thing we know is that Spewdaro and the rest of his minions really dont know who the Eagles are going to take.  That Chris McPherson or whatever his name is wrote about how he was just about to push the button to post an article on the Eagles website that they had drafted Khalif Barnes last year when they went ahead and took Mike Patterson.

goddamnit...i would won the mock contests....

If they get him.....and he could learn to swap from guard to center....or just stay at guard.....


Beast.

I hate MJG. He's one of the players that the media hypes up all the time but if you watch him he just isnt that good. He's slow, overweight, and cant block at the 2nd level. I wouldnt touch him till day 2 for the Eagles.

[Feva]

Did someone say Matt McCoy??

I still think it's too early to make fun of him.

I'm not making fun of him personally.  I'm hoping against hope that the kid actually has something to contribute.

What I am making fun of is the pick where we took him, speaking to IGY's point about taking a player way higher than where he was projected to go.  McCoy was considered a 4th rounder in a lot of circles and we took him with the 63rd pick.

[reese125]

he could be tried for 2 lesser accounts on a sexual assault case that just got dismissed.

Bring him in Reid, we need some of that aggression applied to our defense
