Eagles Sign LS Dorenbos

[Dillen]

I was (sadly) thinking about this the other day. Everyone thought the Eagles could do much better prior to the season but he's done pretty well this year.

im not doubting you but were people really analyzing the long snapper position before the season?

[MadMarchHare]

I guess Dorenbos has done fine, for what it's worth.  But don't the Eagles have bigger fish to fry with that cap money?

[Diomedes]

Well, I dunno about analyzing.  But good long snappers who can actually contribute on ST are not exactly a dime a dozen.  The Eagles had a good thing going with Bartrum for a long time, and so LS was a question mark with Dorenbos.

He's been solid.  It's good to stabilize that position by signing him.

I just wish they had waited to do it until the off season begins in earnest, so we could enjoy the argument you're going to pick about it more fully.

Kind of. The main problem was really replacing a longtime pro bowl LS with a magician.

You're funny sometimes.

arguing about a long snapper would probably be worse than you analyzing the position like you just did...i have uncountable areas of expertise however long snapper is not one of them...congrats to you on that

[PhillyPhreak54]

It's a good move. He looked shaky last season but was good this year. The amount of money likely used to sign him probably isn't enough to even put a dent in the cap or affect whomever else they want to sign.

you = weak sauce

[Sgt PSN]

I thought igy = hot sauce on eggs and grits.  Did I miss something?

You can tell the season is suck when there are three pages dedicated to a long snapper...

[BigEd76]

but he does corny card tricks!

In all fairness, more than 2 pages of it are from last season.

[QB Eagles]

Bad snap on the missed FG. Bad snap on the blocked punt.

Eagles worked out long snappers this week.

Maybe they can play C too.
