The Eagles continue to amaze everyone. Ronnie Brown on a one-year. Amazing.

I'm looking forward to watch the Eagles this season. They were my favorite team to watch last year. Hopefully Vick is just as exciting as last year.

despite all these signings if Mike Vick (who I love) gets hurt, which tends to happen. They still can't beat the Packers or Falcons...hell the Saints and the Bucs would give a Vickless Eagles a run for their money

LOL.

I can smell the desperation all the way down here in South Awesome!!

Desperation of the free agents that are signing in Philly? It's not like the Eagles are throwing tons of money at people to entice them to play there. Even Asomugha said he knew in March that he wanted to play for Philly but the Eagles didn't make a play for him.

Philly has become the place that everyone wants to play whether it is in baseball or football. They might not want to live there, but South Jersey is just a short ride over the bridge.

They are trying to buy a championship after coming so close last year. Its Superbowl or bust and i'm thinking bust because i believe Green bay is still a better team. NO & ATL are pretty much even steven with Philly.....But buy away Philly buy away.

I don't think the Eagles are better than Green Bay and are on par with NO and ATL but how are they trying to buy a championship? They have to stay within the same financial guidelines as everyone else.Agents are coming to them saying that my guy wants to play for you and will do so for less money than he could get somewhere else. Are the Eagles supposed to say no?

The Eagles still have plenty of holes and this team has a whole new defensive scheme to learn. It will take time to gel. A trip to the SB will run through Mike Vick which I am not 100% sold on yet. The NFC is tough and it will be no cake walk. You make it sound like they are the Yankees and spending so much more than everyone else. They aren't throwing money at people.

Yeah but they already have two standout CB's so they add another? + Jackson is pissed and wants more money and Mackin is still hurting. It just looks like overkill in the secondary when there are holes to fix on the offense. But i guess after years of watching the Cowboys and Redskins try (and fail) to buy a ring its now the Eagles turn to give it a go.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By nogoodbum · Posted

      Don't take this personal, but anyone who watches pregame or game broadcast on any of the four major networks & can't point out a dozen "experts" that Luke would do a better job than, is just not paying attention. IMO

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
