Samuel apparently IS at the Novacare complex...aka Free Agent thread

[PhillyGirl]

The "tip" of Sheldon Brown being moved to safety is bullshtein, just an FYI. My "source" told me this just now.

And as he said everyone already knows, the Samuel deal has been done for a while....just the physical remains.

Sorry for the delay. We had to set up Eagles Live! and make sure we have no technical difficulties and of course that is never possible. It's pretty fun and pretty frantic here. Saw Samuel. He was in the cafeteria and now he's having lunch. I wish I could report what he eats -- other than opposing quarterback's passes -- but I can't. I am not that much of a nerd.

Everybody in the media says this is a done deal. I've interviewed Adam Caplan, Tony Pauline and Vic Carucci today and all agree that adding Samuels would be huuuuggge for this team.

"He instantly makes this a much better defense," said Carucci, from NFL.com. "I used to think he was a product of that system, but no more. He has great instincts, plays the ball well ... outstanding player. One of the best ball hawks in the league."

Looking for Andy Reid. Looking for Joe Banner. What else is up here?

Death.

Dave makes me want to shoot someone. Him, preferrably, but someone nonetheless.

I literally laughed out loud at the last sentence.

[QB Eagles]

The week of Super Bowl XXXIX, Dave was enough of a nerd to upload 20 minutes of footage of him detailing all the breakfast foods at the Eagles cafeteria. Therefore I think he IS enough of a nerd to tell us what Samuel ate.

I <3 Dave

no chance lito isnt gone if they sign samuel....and if he isnt this is a huge blunder on the front offices part

Having 3 probowl caliber players would indeed suck.

I don't know what Samuel eats either, but I do know what Spadaro would like to eat: Samuel's chocolate starfish.

FWIW My uncle just called me and said Mike Tirico said it was official on his radio show.  Again FWIW.

That sounds like a Reskin fan...

1:10 p.m.

Is everyone fixated on wide receiver here? Fans love, love, love talking about wide receiver. I want you to take it slowly, OK? The Eagles have the premier unrestricted free agent on the market here today. That is a great start to free agency.

The rest of it will take care of itself. The Eagles know what they need, gang. They'll get to it. Promise. Remember, it's an aggressive approach in the months to come. The Eagles still have draft picks and room under the cap and they have moves to make.

So enjoy the day. The Eagles are the players of players in the NFL today. It's a very good thing

shut the farg up Spadaro.

I haven't really been reading everyone's bullshtein...but is this a good move overall?

I thought we had a bigger need than CB.
