The 2007 Offseason Thread

[ice grillin you]

Bottom line is that Stallworth is 100x better than ANY 3rd round pick they could have

amen

plus its not like they have to give up a pick or no pick....its the difference btwn a 3rd and a 4th...which is nothing

[Rome]

It's pretty inconceivable that the Eagles & Stallworth already have a gentlemen's agreement regarding his contract, and as much as it pains me to say it, I think he's gone.

No way Rosenhaus lets him sign for a "hometown" discount.  Then again, you never know.  I would have never let him get to this point.  Every other player the Eagles signed to an extension would have been standing behind Donte in line if I were the GM.

[BigEd76]

Supposedly it automatically becomes a 4th if he gets to free agency, re-signed or not.  I dont know why they would risk it though...

what do you mean...i thought its a 4th right now no matter what happens....and if they resign him its a 3rd

is there more to it than that?

GET DONTE STALLWORTH

[Munson]

Donte Stallworth obviously.

Defensivle help in all phases, DT, SAM, SS.....and probably someone to eventually take over for Trotter. I like Gaither at WLB.

A coach who will be willing to run the ball at least 30 times a game...and I mean with the running backs, not 22 with the running backs and then McNabb/Garcia scrambles counting for anohter 8. So, re-sign Buck, and get another guy who can take 8-10 carries agame, and FIND A COACH WILLING TO USE THEM. So Reid needs to change his philosophy, which won't happen, or be gone, which won't happen.

Nice.

[Feva]

But I wonder if it has anything to do with not wanting to give up the 3rd round pick?

god i hope youre wrong

but if you arent then the front office should be arrested

If they end up letting Stallworth walk over a farging draft pick... somebody's getting shot.

[PhillyGirl]

FWIW, my "source" seems to think Stallworth will get signed.

[rjs246]

Your 'source' says that because no one can fathom why they wouldn't sign him. This front office is completely capable of letting him walk over a few bucks.

Lurie: Good news, Andy. You get to keep your job.
Reid: Oh praise Young! Thank you Jeff.
Lurie: Don't mention it. Oh, by the way. McNabb isn't going to be ready until halfway through the regular season.
Reid: I was afraid of that. Well, we still have Jeff Gar-
Lurie: No, he signed with Tampa yesterday.
Reid: Well, that's a big loss. I'm sure AJ can-
Lurie: Nope. Traded him to KC for a 6th rounder.
Reid: That's odd. Still, I'm sure we can get someone to throw the ball up to Stallw-
Lurie: HAHAHHAHAHAHAH! Check the news, Andy. He signed with the taterskins this morning. We lose a 4th round pick for him, but I think you'll do great things with that extra 6th we got you.

[rjs246]

You forgot the part where they jerk each other off to completion during the conversation.

[General_Failure]

Yeah, I pretty much stuck to the conversation part of their sexings.

[The BIGSTUD]

Joe Banner said this week that Lurie is completely committed to winning. Let's see if he lives up to that claim.

and that means some big signings this offseason. No more excuses that the Matt McCoys and the Chris Gocongs are going to walk in and be pro bowlers. I've heard enough of it.

Last offseason we were all mad that they sat on their asses, but the great draft(or what we thought was great at the time) tempered that anger. Well I don't think anyone here is going to buy their shtein anymore. No more excuses. The window is closing and this defense needs to be fixed.

Reid: (takes penis out of his mouth) Oh praise Young! Thank you Jeff
