CB Sheldon Brown


17+89=6

Recommended Posts

LOL... doubt it'll happen as they already unloaded Lito Sheppard this off-season. I don't see them losing two starting corners and relying on the overpaid Juslio Hanson. Its possible but highly unlikely. I like how Sheldon didn't mind riding the bench, but once he's put into the spotlight as a solid lock to start.. he wants out...

Must be because of Lito and Dawkins leaving or him just wanting a bigger paycheck.

ESPN reports that Eagles CB Sheldon Brown has requested a trade.

The report wasn't attributed to a specific writer, but we suspect it comes from Michael Smith. Brown expressed displeasure with his contract around this time last year too. The 30-year-old right corner is due just $2M in 2009 salary, but has little leverage because he has a contract through 2012.

Was the original content, he's going to want a pay day if he came to Carolina. Still, highly unlikely but who knows. He can't be too happy making 2kk this year when the nickel back just signed a 5 year 25k contract.

I mean hell, why pay the unestablished guy starter money?

Just Lito and Dawkins left... the secondary is changing and Brown wants a payday.

I still see it hard for Carolina to want Brown as he's 30 and it'd replace one of the 1st round picks they might be able to get for Peppers. Possible, just highly unlikely.

I personally find it less likely that a team will give up 2 firsts for Peppers. But I do know what you mean. We just have secondary issues.

The Eagles issued a statement on CB Sheldon Brown's trade request Monday, calling the demand "unfortunate and counterproductive."

"He has three years remaining on (his) contract and, after taking the signing bonus and his first two years of salary into account, we feel that Sheldon is being paid fairly," the statement reads. The Eagles say they will not consider a trade. Brown is likely stuck in Philly for at least another year.

One less situation for Peppers to get tangled into now.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
