 GET HUFF... GET VILMA... Get Tissues

I don't like the Eagles working out a trade with the Patriots.  Their front office is better and smarter.

[Seabiscuit36]

I want Defense, and if they get Vilma for a 3rd thats a sick deal.

Eagles may look at Wilson

No worries at linebacker

Posted this in the Sal Pal jocks Samuel thread as well, but it should be here to

DraftDaddy.com:

Last night we posted that our main source in Indy was reporting the Detroit Lions are shopping star wide receiver Roy Williams in hopes of getting a 2nd round pick in return -- either in the upcoming draft or next years draft.

This has created a buzz on many fan sites and has caused many to ask us why Detroit would even consider trading such a young and talented wide receiver for "only" a second round pick?

Here's the response from our source, when we asked the same question: Williams demands for a contract extenstion are pretty steep, which will knock down the Lions asking price in trades. He is reportedly looking for 8 to 10 million dollars a year, with a 28 million dollar signing bonus.

Second round pick? Do it. Like now.

Wow, seriously.  Yes.

Agreed, and hopefully the move would live up to the high bar set by Thrash and the Bowtie.

Do that yesterday.  For real.

all the moves people have the Eagles making on this board, they've traded about 15 2008 draft picks

I don't see the problem with that.  Think positive, believe you can!

Bowtie was never worth anything but trading Thrash back to washington turned into Trent Cole.

This from Thrashs' Wiki page:

He has been a valued contributor on special teams since his return, and in the later parts of the 2006 season, has made some clutch catches in the end zone and on third downs. According to the team website, Thrash is beginning to earn the moniker "Mr. Clutch."


Ha, pointing and laughing from any thread works

From that LB article.

"I'm optimistic," he said. "I felt good at the end of the year. I felt good about our linebackers coming around. Stewart Bradley showed he could play at middle linebacker. Omar can play the middle or outside backer. Chris Gocong, Akeem Jordan, I really like the way they played. Takeo Spikes, coming off that [shoulder] injury, I think he'll be fine."

I'm telling you, anyone who's hoping Bradley starts over Gocong at SLB is dreaming. They seem hell bent on Bradley playing MLB for his career. It looks like after this year, they'll drop Spikes, move Gaither back to WLB and put Bradley in the middle, and hope Gocong pans out at SLB. The other thing I liked about that aritcle is they feel with their "depth" at LB they can play some 3-4 and put Gocong down in the 3 point stance to do what he does best.
