he keeps things in house, until he wants to use the media to send a point.

Exactly...and, he's not blaming the player in this quote, he's blaming the agent (kind of like saying, "Brodrick, he's giving you bad advice. Sign the farging thing and get into camp before you're behind Sam Rayburn").

Possibly just to confuse reporters and fans, Jabar Gaffney is now No. 80 and Hank Baskett is No. 84, the opposite of how they appear on the Eagles' roster and in the media guide. Baskett said he had no input into the switch, but he joked that it might come in handy sometimes. "I slipped and [a fan] yelled, 'Hey, Jabar, don't slip!' I said, 'OK,' " Baskett said.

Just an FYI....for those who thought Gaffney was the one dropping passes all day yesterday.

I drafted Moats in the 13th round and have no intention of ever playing him. When did you draft Gaffney again? Oh and what were your comments immediately after? Yeah. Nice try though.

#80 dropped his fair share also.  The Eagles need another receiver.  Trust me.

Because day one of real training camp tells so much about how a player will play in a game.

[SunMo]

who needed to see them practice at training camp without realizing they need another reciever?

Eagles | J. Davis impresses Dawkins in scrimmage
Wed, 26 Jul 2006 08:57:31 -0700

Bob Brookover, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Eagles FB Jason S. Davis, an undrafted rookie, got some attention from FS Brian Dawkins about his performance in practice. "I don't know his name," Dawkins said. "I'm sorry, but he's a rookie. Number 42. He had some de-cleaters out there today."

he sounds like he's making a name for himself

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

That's high praise coming from Dawk.  I badly want Davis to do well.  Parry sucks.

[PhillyGirl]

i posted it because on Phreak's thread, he specifically pointed it out, so I wanted to correct it....only I cant post on that thread for some reason, the board wont' let me post on certain threads until its fixed.

[jeffreyjpa]

Phreak pointed out Davis' performance to Ed and I yesterday during practice...I hadn't even heard his name before, but he made some plays.

Would love to see someone come up and take Parry's job; he's a place-holder, at best.

[ice grillin you]

That's high praise coming from Dawk.

id say its more dawk praying to god that someone other than parry is the fullback this year as opposed to davis being some sort of player...if it had been tapeh out there instead of davis then the praise would have been thrown in his direction in much the same way
