My first post is part of my OCD. Sometimes I don't know how to react with anger and get weird. That's not a joke by the way, I'm really serious about that. It's a side effect of OCD.

But I don't think it makes the Falcons or taterskins significantly better, but it does address needs, which can't hurt. Yes, I'd rather have Duckett than Davis. But not for a 3rd rounder. For a 4th, yes.

I was in denial. I admit it. I have calmed down. So excuse that post.

The only surprising part of this is how Washington got involved. I figured a Denver/Atlanta trade was coming.

I can stay calm until september. If on opening day we are without added RB help or WR help, and I don't mean Marty Johnson or a no-name WR at the bottom of the FA pool, then I will be furious, and I will rip this team a new a-hole.

But I still have to have hope that they will add players, although I wouldn't be shocked at all if they didn't.

This team can be so frustrating sometimes. It's hard to rip them because of their success, so a very small part of me wishes for them to fail so they won't have excuses anymore.

Who left is even out there? Stallworth? Kevin Johnson? Tatum Bell?

They did fail. Miserably. Last year. Ripping them for doing next to nothing to upgrade the offense is acceptible so stop buffing their balls with your tongue.

You could say that Gaffney was beaten out by an undrafted rookie while you're at it.

You can say that Gaffney was never intended to replace Owens & was meant to upgrade Greg Lewis, who failed to upgrade himself.

Stephen Davis is better than Duckett, so I'm not that mad about that.

I really don't care that much about Lelie either. He wasn't worth a 3rd rounder.

All in all it doesn't hurt the Eagles and doesn't help the Falcons, taterskins or Broncos.

The Eagles better find a RB and a WR quick. Players are going places and the time to get practices in with the team if they do get players is quickly fading.

Who's left that's being shopped around at WR? Porter? They're not getting a WR.

Stallworth? Kevin Johnson?

Your guess is as good as mine. I have no frickin idea. You may be right that they won't get a WR, but I can't rip them a new one until it turns out that way. Hopefully they won't let us fans down, but I can't say my expectations are that they'll get one. The Eagles just don't seem to care. Either that or are too cheap.

Besides the draft, this has been an abysmal offseason for the Eagles. Didn't do shtein in free agency besides Darren Howard, and when they get a chance to redeem themselves and pick up some offensive help, they still sit on their asses. This front office will be a complete joke if they stick with what they have right now, and I'm not even saying what we have right now sucks. It's because we are 1 injury away from getting completely farged. Reggie Brown or Westbrook getting hurt means an 8-8 season at best.

Damn. They'd better go get somebody so that they don't let the fans down.
