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.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
