Yeah, then we go out and get Abraham, Edge, trade for Antonio Gates, bring in Drew Brees and Culpepper as backups.

That would totally rock.
Anyone but Reid.

Douchbag John Clark on NBC10:

- Spoke to Runyan tonight and he has NO visits lined up

- Wants to come back to Philadelphia

So the market isn't there for Big Jon. I am starting to get a little more positive about him returning.

I don't think anyone actually wants Davis....they just like yelling "Get VD!"

Why would anyone want the Eagles to get Vick?  Oh snap!  Zing.  Please ban me, I have nothing to contribute.! p\/\/n3d!  Die.  Burn. 

Vick already has VD

To hell with discussing... get to re-signing.

full blurb from Philly.com:

QuoteA return for Runyan? Along the offensive line, the Eagles are still discussing the idea of re-signing right tackle Jon Runyan, who had a visit of his own scheduled for this morning.

"I'm leaving the country," he said. "But my flight connects in Charlotte, so maybe people will be talking about me going" to the Carolina Panthers.

Runyan is going to be on vacation until Saturday and said he did not have any visits scheduled with other NFL teams.

"Make the offer first, and then I'll come visit," he said. "I'm not sure I'm going to make any visits."

As for the Eagles' decision not to make an offer before the start of free agency, Runyan admitted that he would have liked them to handle things differently, but he didn't expect it.

"You'd like it, but you know that's not their style," he said. "You've seen many guys go through that and walk out the door and move on. They've had quarrels about it, but I'm not about to do anything like that. It's not worth all the emotional strain that takes."

Runyan, 32, said he appreciates fans' getting upset that after taking a pay cut last season, he now finds himself in limbo with the team. But the giant tackle is every bit as unflappable as he is reliable when it comes to lining up to play on game day.

"I can see where people are coming from," Runyan said. "But that's how [the Eagles] conduct their business. It's not a popular way of doing things, but if you're going to be around them, you have to deal with it. Some people go out of their way to take care of the players, but this is a business."

MURP

with Bentley and Hutchinson out of the picture I think re-signing Runyan is a top priority if they want McNabb to stay alive this season.

CSN reported that Runyan was supposed to meet with the Eagles today.

FWIW

Unless the Eagles called and said "Hey come in to talk" and he did it. He can always reschedule the flight.
