The 2007 Offseason Thread

Doss on a 1 year $1 million prove his worth deal wouldn't be too bad. Definitely would feel more comfortable about our DB depth.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Agreed. Bring him in.

Hey Feva.....are you watching an old Eagles game or something? 

Nah... those aren't my pictures.  I noticed Duce puttin in work though too.

If he is cheap with a 1 year deal then I like this move. Anything else I really don't care either way. The upside is he is 26, will be cheap, and isn't Considine. The downside is he is always hurt and wasn't all that great when he played. I've seen him get burnt quite a few times over the years.

Maybe Montae Reagor convinces him to come here. This would be like the 3rd player we stole from the Vikings in the last 2 offseasons if he signs here. Childress...

if they sign Doss, that gives them 4 safeties, i think it would all but eliminate them from taking a safety with their first pick, if that's the case, i don't want Doss

They'll just trade Considine for a first rounder and trade up to get Landry

Hardly.  It's not as if they have any depth at corner this year, and they usually keep 9 DB's.  Mikell plays "corner" in certain packages, as does Dawkins.  They could very well keep just the 4 CB's (Lito, Sheldon, Will James, and Joselio) and 5 safeties.

That said... I don't really care if they sign Doss or not.  If they think he's fully back from injury and can help the team on the cheap, fine.  He's a liability in coverage, though, so he's more of a situational player.

[Diomedes]

He's Michael Lewis, cheaper.

The more you look at the draft, they probably weren't going to anyway. We already have our cover safety in considine, we just need our run support safety. Doss could be fine in that regard. All the first round safeties that will be there for the Eagles are all free safeties mainly. The Eagles probably see this and figure to go corner in the first round. Unless Willis or a stud DE falls. Would I be ok with Meriweather? Absolutely. I'm just guessing the Eagles strategy here. I think they really like Considine.

Right now I either want Moss or Revis. The more I watch of Revis the more I love him. I think he is going to be the best corner out of this draft class.

[Dillen]

Jarvis Moss would make me pissed off. He isn't going to be a good DE. He's a 1st round 3-4 OLB, and a 2nd-3rd round DE.




Supposedly Considine is up to 220 pounds. Spadaro said it on Eagles Live.

[Seabiscuit36]

Did spew go into details about his abs?   

Seriously, if he's 220 thats pretty impressive.  Now if he can hit like he's 240 then im feeling better about him

I don't think he'll be a pro bowler, but he'd be a good guy in the rotation. I like Carriker a lot, but he is more of a 3-4 guy. I think if the Eagles really wanted him to and he fell, he could be in the 4-3 though.

[PhillyPhanInDC]

Just a thought, but I am pretty sure you wouldn't want your first round pick to be a "good guy in the rotation".

There isn't a chance in hell Carriker is there at 26.

but he is more of a 3-4 guy

he could be in the 4-3 though.

.....right.

[SunMo]

if Sean Considine is the starting safety next year, the defense will rank in the bottom 10 in the league.  i don't care how much he weighs
