London Loves Luke

Is Morgan really a rumor? Not to rain on anyone's parade (my own included) but the guy posted a picture of the sky.

He strikes me as the type of guy that's just happy to be in the league and will do everything he can in practice to stay here. Even if he doesn't end up starting that effort at least keeps the wrs above him honest.

Byron Bulaga

Lol Wagner and Mayo might disagree with you there. Do you even watch football?

Our boys really stepped up his troll game now.

+ $5m change according to how much Spiller is valued at.

Or the more likely scenario of (insert previously average/rookie RB here) putting up 1200 yards behind the Eagles O line and Kelly's run scheme.

The people that are saying the Eagles lost out simply don't understand value. The Eagles received a Linebacker and close to $10m free cap. They could sign Forsett/Spiller and a WR in free agency and EASILY pass McCoy's production for the next few years with that $10m. Plus they get an exciting young LB.

Any idea how much of mccoys contract the eagles need to contribute?

Tbh the eagles didn't have many holes and LB was a major one for them to fill. With the 20th pick in this RB loaded draft they could easily replicate mccoys numbers with Sproles + rookie next year. This is a great move by the eagles.

This fugging thread. I swear if one more of you unoriginal fugs posts "I bet x was at home studying film" I'm going to start 5 new Hardy threads.

I'm starting to like this kid, he's got serious pluck once he catches the ball. Still think we'd be better off with a CB or WR in 3 because of the extra depth in these groups and the bigger improvement in areas of need.

Half look at combine performance as any sort of indication of a player's ability. The other half understand football.

No chance we don't pick up a WR in the first three rounds. In every interview so far DG has said this is a deep WR class. He's not likely to overlook some of the safe picks at WR available in the early rounds. Plus a third on a TE/HB? That would be a reach...

For all the people who shout about Hardy not having been punished so far, imagine you were paid to maintain/moderate/provide content to the Huddle (shouldn't be too difficult for some of the people that support this view). Now imagine you were told that you could no longer access the Huddle, but you'd still get paid. Would you be ok with that?

Oh Lawd we have been forsaken!!! How WILL we return footballs next year?!

The worst thing about Cams expected contract isn't the size, it's that once that's done and Hardy is gone, what the hell are we going to talk about?

I agree there's talent in this FA group, but CB is an overpaid position all round at the moment. So evaluating value for money is especially hard at the moment. That's why I support Gman's experimental approach to FA for corners.

So why do we need to reinforce the stellar pass rush that we got at the end of last season then? That's what we're all saying, we have bigger areas to improve without worrying about the "what if" worst case scenarios at DE.

Our defense improved from 25th to 5th with changes in our secondary over the second half of the season, not changes to our D-Line. CJ is still a game changer, and when you can rotate Alexander, Ealy, Horton and Addison on the other end you should not be too worried about DE. When your corner depth is Melvin White and Carrington Byndom, then you should address your cornerbacks.

Sorry T, but disagree with most of this. I see our priority ranks as OT, WR, CB, DE/S, DT OT/WR is self explanatory. CB - I agree Colin Jones was decent in man coverage from the slot, but our Buffalo package requires zone coverage for intermediate routes, where Jones got confused a fair amount of times last season. You can't steal a safety from our roster, call him a slot CB and say safety is a bigger need. DE/S - We have starters in these positions at the moment - Boston/Harper/Jones will most probably start next season and they all have playing time under their belt. Harper most probably will start regardless of people's complaints because he keeps the young group together. We have CJ and Ealy as DEs this season, and enough depth with playing time to spell if needed. Yes, it would be nice to have a vet to help Ealy, but I don't think its happening this season unless we keep Hardy. Guy's gonna have a baptism of fire and hopefully he comes out stronger because of it. DT - we just need bench depth, not exactly a huge need.

Well he is from SC so he'd be right at home.

I'd say "bad" is a little unfair. Inexperienced and untested, yes, but I don't think the likes of Byndom or Dockery have proven themselves good or bad yet.

Not sure I can name 5 positions above CB, WR and OT are the only places we have glaring holes.
