Getting Duckett would cause me to ejaculate. A lot.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Duckett would be sweet.

Wonder who the WR is? Moulds!

[PhillyGirl]

the RB is Brian Urlacher. He sure can run.

[Tomahawk]

Duckett would be sweet.

Wonder who the WR is? Moulds!

Haven't you heard? Moulds is a Texan.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Wonder who the WR is? Moulds!

It can't be.  Gargano also reported that Moulds has agreed to terms with the Texans, and the Eagles won't come anywhere near matching his price!  COME ON, MAN.  TRY TO KEEP UP!!!!!!111111111

[Feva]

no hes telling the truth but the truth is that moulds has agreed in principle to the terms of a deal...hes never actually said that moulds is 100% going to be a texan....he definitely left himself an out

wip is still reporting that hes comes to terms on a contract with the texans....gargano is obviously 100% sure of it...just a matter of time before the trade is worked out

[MURP]

get jonathan wells

whats the obsession with Wells?  You must have mentioned him about 10 times now. 

[ice grillin you]

agreed in principle to a contract come to terms...not been traded to or signed with the texans

is the board that infatuated with proving me wrong that you will absolutely ignore what i say

Not obsessed with proving you wrong at all.  You do that by yourself often enough. 

Just looking for clarification.

[ice grillin you]

Not obsessed with proving you wrong at all

maybe not obsessed but you know it would be kinda sweet to be the first...and i dont blame you...that would carry some weight

[Feva]

I actually look forward to the time you actually prove yourself to be right.  It's kinda like how you want your boy get his first piece of ass.  A proud moment to be had by all.

Rich Hoffman states:
The Eagles let you know nothing - and, as a result, the fan base is beyond skeptical. The all-timer came early in Reid's tenure, when he told everyone that Charles Johnson and Torrance Small were just fine at wideout, thanks - until the minute the door hit them in the backside. You get used to it - anyone's eyes will adjust to the darkness after a while - but it is maddening."
"Go to weakside linebacker. A few years back, they had Shawn Barber here on a 1-year deal, and he played really well for that 1 year, and then Kansas City made him a free-agent offer that the Eagles told people under their breath was preposterously high. They had the money to keep him - they just thought it was too much. So Barber left and the Eagles brought in Nate Wayne and said they were better off; they weren't. Then they replaced Wayne with special-teamer Keith Adams and said they were better off; they weren't. Now they're bringing Barber back, after a significant injury, on another no-strings/1-year deal, and saying they're better off. You think?"

These paragraph statements make all the sense in the world. The FO has made so many player mistakes in the past (very costly) that they are blinded themselves because of their obsession with bargain players and being the "financially superior team" of the NFL. They need to realize their mistakes and REALLY look at the players talent level and evaluation process  before they choose and start their downward spiral in this league... because you dont stay at the top for long (and last year might be the first indication ). We as fans cant keep always saying, "we'll be ok, I trust the FO based on their history" anymore....and neither can they. Offseason grade so far: C-

Offseason grade so far: C-

There's a thread for that.

[Rome]

Is anyone else sick and tired of the "Eagles are cheap" argument?

It holds absolutely no water whatsoever, yet it's regurgitated over and over here, there and everywhere.

It reminds me of when neocons use the word "liberal" as an invective.  If you say it enough, people will begin to believe it.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

They're not cheap.  Correct.  They prefer to offer contracts that actually demonstrate the real worth of the player and give the player an actual chance to play out said contract without numerous restructures or getting the cutski.
