Ernie Sims, Philadelphia Eagle

[Rome]

25 year old former 1st rounder for a 5th? In. At worst he's better than what they have.

hmmm, interesting.  no one has put it in that perspective yet.

thanks.

why you bustin' dalton's balls, yo?

every skill set he was drafted for can now take him back to his 2007 season within the eagles defensive system.

youre now taking him out of the tampa 2 system-- where he will be able to feed off the d-line, fly around, attacking the ball rather than just filling his assigned gaps

I wouldnt doubt for a second he is the talk of the defense this year

He had some success as a LB in the Tampa 2 system, the new regime there doesn't run that.  If remember correctly last year he was on the trading block as well, Scwhartz likes his LBs to be large in stature. 

Its hard to know what he actually offers being that he was on such a craptastic team, at least he has some talent.

Ernie owns an extremely large collection of snakes and other reptiles.[5] Because of this, his nickname is "The Snake Charmer" Fox produced a segment for the Lions' game vs the Minnesota Vikings in Detroit in 2007 which showcased his pets.

It means he's fast and small and we all hope to hell that the coaches can make that work.
