Kenjon Barner with a 90+ Punt Runt Return TD. * Sigh

Was a damn good return, Philly special teams have been awesome last few years. Agholor also looking legit.

If Barner makes the squad does he count towards out comp pick formula?

 

No they cut him after we traded him so that's out of the picture now. He went to their PS last year after being unclaimed so he's theirs.

 

Edit: realized you're talking about comp picks and not the conditional 7th we traded him for... He never would've counted to the comp pick formula since he wasn't a free agent we traded him for a conditional 7th. Since they cut him we can't get that 7th. Doubt he even makes their squad anyways, they have many great returners above him.

 

Edit2: Actually he didn't even make their PS last year... They released him and signed him to a future/reserve contract after the season. Regardless, still doesn't affect us at all.

There was NO way Shula was ever going to use him right. Chip knows Barner from his college days and knows exactly how to use him. Don't read to much into it.

As for his punt TD, it was a good return, but I'd still rather have Ginn back there.

Oh please, stop ripping on Shula for no reason. Barner is not ever going to make any impact in the NFL at all. Extremely unlikely he even makes the Eagles' 53 man roster. If Chip knew how to use him so well, he wouldn't have cut him last year.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
