1. Re-sign Runyan

2. Sign a veteran RB who is well versed in the WCO and is bigger than Westbrook and Moats (Maurice Morris or Najeh Davenport or maybe even Verron Haynes)

3. If Moulds or Walker can be had - get one of them.

4. Sign a veteran DT replacement for Hollis. He wants out - get him out. Get another guy in there who can do what he did but better.

5. GET JULIAN PETERSON! We need a SAM LB. He's the best out there. Get him now.

6. My first round pick is Brodrick Bunkley.

I agree with all of this.

None of that will happen except for Runyan and even that is iffy.

do I sense a little distrust in Wilbur?   :o ;D

Not on my side. But I think the Eagles are done with him. I am hoping that he shows up to Lehigh and just goes off on offense and STs. I hope he forces them to cut Greg Lewis.

Brown
Gaffney
Pinkston
McMullen
Marshall (or another rookie)

But if they get Moulds or Walker somehow, then I'll bid Wilbur adieu and be happy doing so.

I'm not going to be that pessimistic yet.

Broderick Bunkley is very realistic right now, and so is a veteran RB.
Calling it right on the $ since day one.
Just pointing laughing, and living it up while watching the Miami Heat stink it up.

Darryl Tapp will not be there in the 3rd round, MURP.  He was too good against D'Brick in the Senior Bowl to fall that far.  If he fell to the Eagles' pick in the 2nd, it would be a mild miracle.

I agree pretty much with Phreak and MURP, though.  The Eagles almost have to take Ngata or Bunkley now IMO... and the problem is that both of them may be off the board.  Because of the huge question marks the Eagles have in the middle of the DL, I'm actually starting to lean towards the idea of Ngata, but he'll be long gone by 14.

Runyan must be re-signed now.

And yes, I hope they're not done at SAM LB and WR.

And that matters why? You think the Eagles wouldn't trade up to draft one?

ice grillin you

So I will ask again: If it were up to you what moves would you make, Draft and Free agency included, to make the Eagles a legit Superbowl contender?

you cant ask this question now...most of the available moves are gone now


my move #1 is fire the coach...they need a competant game day coach....a fresh start... a new era...a cleansing
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

It matters because the Eagles may only be able to move up 2-3 spots realistically, and that's assuming they give up at least their 3rd rounder also... and I think that the Eagles need all three of their 1st day picks to shure up 3 spots as of now:  DT, OL, and either WR or LB.

I suppose my problem is that I could see the Eagles staying put, Bunkley going off the board at #13, and the Eagles taking someone like Winston Justice at #14, who doesn't help the team at all or very little in 2006.

Diomedes

Re-sign Runyan
Get Peterson
Sign Keyshawn
Draft in this order with the first three picks: DT, LB, OL
Add a big bruising RB.  Either from the draft or FA.  Davenport is still available.
Send Andy Reid to remedial clock management seminar.  Then send him to remedial play calling seminar.  Then tell him that if he wastes more than three time outs next season on account of his zesty decision making, he's farging fired.

I can't believe anyone is calling for the Eagles to sign MeShawn.

That's farging hysterical.   :-D

PoopyfaceMcGee

I'd almost rather go 8-8 without Keyshawn than 10-6 with him.

But in reality, having him wouldn't make the difference between winning/losing 2 games.

Diomedes

Yeah well, someone's got to drop the bomb.  They've got the money.  He isn't half the headcase the media makes him out to be.  He's still got skills, he's unafraid of getting hit, he blocks like it's his purpose in life...Get Keyshawn.

He wants no less than 2.5 mil a year. He's not even close to worth that money, IMO.

Um... Keyshawn isn't half the head case he's made out to be?  Are you serious??

Come on, Dio...  you're scaring me now.

PhillyPhreak54

Keyshawn said he would play for Philly (in addition to three othe teams) but he said he will not play for $2.5M a year.

He's 34.

No way they'd sign him.

Imagine him goin after Reid like he went after Gruden....

IMHO, Reid SHOULD be "gone after" by someone.  This team needs a kick in the pants.  Wherever Keyshawn ends up, he'll blow the doors off every reciever on the Eagles.  Except maybe Brown, who I think might be the story of the year this season.

Get Keyshawn.
