I havent heard back from MDS yet

The Eagles haven't gave up nearly this much in a trade for a WR in the past. Then again, when was the last time a WR as good as Boldin was available for trade? That is excluding Moss who just came off of a lot of character issues who no one but NE wanted.

Plus the Eagles apparently are enamored with Boldin. With both firsts this year, I think the Eagles would do a deal like that this year if only this year. Especially if the 21st pick comes and Moreno, Pettigrew are already gone.

really?

Openly available. Chad Johnson doesn't count, but he was never truly on the market. Cinci always said they won't trade him and it would take more than 2 first rounders for him last year.

If you got some names of WRs that were available as good as Boldin, start dropping them. By all means.

It's only a matter of time before someone brings up that bum Roy Williams who isn't even on the same planet as Boldin.

Sgt PSN · April 16, 2009, 03:19:39 PM

i recognize that you seem to have no clue when the last time a reciever of boldin's caliber was available for trade.

reese125 · April 16, 2009, 03:21:19 PM

not quite sure why you are talking to me about this statement

Sgt PSN · April 16, 2009, 03:22:51 PM

because i have a hard time telling you and cole apart.

reese125 · April 16, 2009, 03:24:45 PM

or youre just an idiot?

man, youve been trying to communicate with me in a bad way since you got back here...congrats

hbionic · April 16, 2009, 03:25:26 PM

Why does anyone care what receiver we(us) get...really...we all know he WILL get hurt sometime before we are able to enjoy watching him make any kind of contribution to the team...so its not use arguing...so we might as well go after a center and convert him into a receiver...you cant tell me he won't be good for at least a 2 to 3 yards per catch...no corner will be bumping him off the line.

didn't see this anywhere yet:

QuoteThe Philadelphia Eagles are close to working out a trade with the Buffalo Bills to acquire left tackle Jason Peters, multiple sources said Friday.

A great success story for the Bills, Peters was an undrafted tight end out of Arkansas. The Bills turned him into an offensive lineman and he ended up starting 10 games by his second season. Buffalo eventually turned him into one of the best left tackles in the game.

Gargano is saying it's not done, but it's imminent and will happen soon
