The Running Backs, Wide Receivers and other offensive questionmarks...

[sallad selgae]

Let's just cut to the chase and call this a "rebuilding year".  That is what it seems the FO is doing.  Even if we added a  horse of a RB or a true #1 receiver they probably think we won't by vying for the SB.  Might as well see what we have, gain some experience and make the run next year.

So you'd rather have a special teamer, Gocong, then someone who lit up the scoreboard at ND, and would be more of a deep threat then anyone on this current team??

i was never a stovall fan but id almost rather have just about anyone from the first three rounds of the draft than gocong

more like retooling year....the eagles have too much talent and too good a qb to be rebuilding right now...its a shame tho that they are wasting mcnabbs talents at this stage in his career by ignoring major needs

Or how bout they just add a RB/WR to the mix this year while simultaneously signing him to a long term deal since we have tons of available cap space.

Do you have a better name? He asked for names, and I threw 2 out there. Detroit is stacked at WR, so it's a logical choice. Plus McNabb has supposedly wanted him here for a while now.

Welcome back to EMB 2002, everyone! End yourself.

That shtein's not even funny. I will close this whole damn board down.

The other might not have been funny but ^ that ^ shtein was.

Rumors are that the Steelers are looking to trade (if not release outright) Duce.  Although I wonder how much he has left in the tank, I would take him back in a minute if he is released by the Steelers.

Eagles will trade for Duce with a condition DP either before or after Fridays game, BANK ON IT! Duce has looked good in preseason and having him back would probably invigorate him and the entire offense. Duce as the big back who can still catch the ball out of the backfield, unlike Duckett. Duce has plenty left to be a 5-6 carry a game guy especially being out the entire year last season. Better than Perry, Parry, Tapeh anyday!

No, they won't.  It's much more likely they'd use the game to see if he has anything left in the tank.

actually from the reports he looks good in preseason so far

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

What reports?

[PhillyPhreak54]

Jesus farging christ is it September 10th yet?

[Diomedes]

Get Duce.  I would be very pleased to see him return.

[phillywin2k5]

What reports?

NFL Network on Sirius.

[SD_Eagle5]

Just a little reminder:

And FYI up to this point I've refused to do the whole sponsorship thing, but if Duce were to become an Eagle again I'm claiming dibs.

I found this amusing:


Len Pasquarelli has Pinkston's Back

That is exactly what's so incredibly frustrating.

Moulds

Randel El
Lelie
Jerevicius
etc....

ANY of these guys could have helped this WR corps in some form or another not look like the total sack of shtein it looks like now.  Some guys I know the Eagles went after... some I know they just ignored.  But my question is, how hard were you really looking at the position when ALL of them slip through your hands for one reason or another.  It's not like we're cool at WR and "if one happened to fall into our laps, then cool"... we NEEDED to add a quality player at the position... and they were there to be had.  If they had to overpay a little to ensure they got a guy they needed, so be it.  I would think the $100 million investment they made in McNabb would prove to be worth it.  Instead, one after another, we watch these guys go to other contenders... contenders on our schedule... contenders in our division.

Infuriating.
