good signing.  weaver has to be a better blocking fb than klecko...since he's an actual fb.  and they can use him as a receiver out of the backfield.


That's all I need. 

Rome, we all know this isn't a move to beef up the running game.  Nobody should be expecting that anymore as long as Andy's torturing chairs around the NC.  But this is a guy who for one, should know his assignments better than Klecko, since he actually plays the position in a similar offense... and we all know the pass in the flat to the FB ain't going away, so we might as well have someone there who may be able to do something with it.  No reason that a defensive guy like Klecko should be holding the ball in his hands BY DESIGN.

It's sad as hell that this is what we have to settle for with Reid, but this is where we're at.

Hahahaha

This guy is a beast. Too bad it took Westy getting hurt to find out how awesome he is.

The Eagles now have more touchdown runs of 66 yards or longer in their last two games (two) than they had during the entire decades of the 1960s (none), 1970s (one) and 1990s (none) combined.

In fact, they produced as many TD runs of 60 yards or longer in a seven-day span over the past two weeks as they did during a 399-game span from November of 1953 through December of 1982 and more 60-yard TD runs than they had in a 253-game span from the last week of the 1982 season through Week 4 of 2000.

QuoteEagles, Weaver Interested In Long-Term Deal - Tuesday, January 05, 2010

97.5 The Fanatic has learned that Philadelphia Eagles management and Leonard Weaver have expressed mutual interest in negotiating a long-term contract that would keep the fullback in Philadelphia beyond this current campaign.  The two sides have already begun discussing the possibility, according to a source familiar with the situation.  Weaver signed a one-year pact with the Eagles on March 20th.

With the Birds in the midst of their playoff push, neither party is focusing on the pact at the present time; however, a deal could come together shortly after the Eagles' run ends, whenever that may be.  In the event that Weaver were to remain here, where he has embraced the city and enjoyed playing for the Eagles organization, his contract would almost assuredly be completed prior to the start of free agency on March 5th, 2010.

Debuting with the Eagles in 2009, Weaver produced a career year.  He earned a starting Pro Bowl nod, his first, while rushing for 323 yards and tallying four touchdowns.  Both of those totals mark personal bests.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds
