Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Continues Rampage, New York Wins On Road

Alrighty, I feel this offseason is heading in a great direction..



As many of you know this offseason hasnt been as spectacular as expected. We didnt land Peppers, Kampman or any of the other big name UFA's. But this offseason has been one that could potentially keep us level with where we were at last year.

 

First off lets break down the Resignings:

Leonard Weaver... This was a must-get-done type of deal. Weaver was problably one of the better players last year, and is by far the best FB in the league. He helps us blocking, running and catching the football. He's definantly earned his keep here and will be a monster with us for the next 3(and hopefully more) years. 

 Fullback Leonard Weaver #43 of the <a class='sbn-auto-link' href=

 

Jason Avant... Jason is one of those guys you just love. He earns his keep being a touch nosed WR who can catch anything. By far not the most talented reciever, but he does get his job down with lunch box in hand and for that we all love the man. Locking him up for 5 years is a great thing.

 

I'd also count Stacy's restructuring as a plus for for other reasons.

 

Free Agents we have signed:

Marlin Jackson... He is a CB/FS who when healthy can be a very good player. I'd rate this move as a good one because at least were making a move to try and add secondary depth, hopefully this one works out.

 

Chad Hall.. He seems like an interesting prospect. He can play WR, RB and can return kicks, now I have seen highlights on this kid and he could be a player for us. If we can incorperate some packages like what the Vikings did with Harvin and he could be very effective. He actually looks like a younger Kevin Curtis(body style and speed)

 

The trade...

I have to say I am happy Reggie Brown is gone. (1) because I just got tired of JIBTA riding him like a bull and (2) I'd like to see him actually have some success.

 

Now to what I think we should do moving forward...

I think we end up moving McNabb or Kolb. If it's McNabb it'll most likely be on draft day and for a 2nd. If it's Kolb how about Kolb and a 3rd for Patrick Willis?

As far as the Draft goes here's how I'd like for it to play out:

Round 1: I would like to see us get Mays or Sean Witherspoon(macjack's pounded it into me over the past few months) or Kyle Wilson, all of which should be able to help immediately.

Round 2: Morgan Burnett, even if we get May's I'd like Burnett as the safety opposite of Mays, could be dangerous in 2-3 years w/ Asante, Kyle Wilson(if we get him if we dont get Mays) and these 2 guys.

Round 3: Dont know how many picks off the top of my head so Ill name 3 guys... Micah Johnson, he could be able to help out alot, everyone know's my input about him.. Toby Gerhart, he's a solid runner, good guy to spell McCoy.. and Trevard Lindley, he's a good Corner, battled through injuries but has alot of promise.

(this is what I have for now, I've got school at 7 am tomorrow and I've spent all day working on projects so ill finish it up tomorrow, please leave some nice suggestions)

i agree...however

please sign at least ONE linebacker…we can do everything else in the draft but at least look at one of these guys:

thomas howard
kirk morrison
clint ingram

ps: move gocong to DE and see how that works out

coming from a jacksonvillian, its interesting to see clint ingrams name mentioned outside of jacksonville…

young and cheap

plus it would be an upgrade over ours currently

yeah

i was going to make a detailed post on the current FAs that are valuable to the Eagles. then the next day, 3 were off the list so im like F this. But my point being, the top LB on my list was Clint Ingram. Ingram is like our Gocong. Gocong is a 3-4 player stuck in a 4-3. Ingram is in the same boat, but vice versa. He is a 4-3 linebacker stuck in a 3-4 defense of jacksonville. If we were to bring Ingram here, Ingrams production would skyrocket.

i never knew jaguars outside of mathis, jones-drew etc. got much recognition. its nice to hear!

Like the idea about moving Gocong.

He obviously can’t play LB but DE might be a different story.

"offseason so far"

should have been the title of this article….no where in it do you say anything about the DIRECTION this offseason is heading.

"Eagles fans are a passionate group who love their team," said McNabb, "if not the actual players. It's not like winning a Super Bowl before the first month of the season is the hardest thing they've ever asked of me. That'd be all those times they asked me to go kill myself."

Before you continue insulting people, I want you to realize how easy it is for someone with a sick mind to find you….. You’re E-Mail address is listed, From there you call the college (or what ever) it goes back to. After that they will direct you to department of student personal. They will give you a name. You plug the name into 411.com they will give you an address. You then do an IRB search (Backround) to find out who their close relatives are …. you see so before you continue pissing people off realize that there are sick people in this world and they have nothing better to do then to find and hurt people that are rude to them and feel that the world would be a better place without 1 more jackass.

Actualy

As a recovery agent I do background searches on people it will more often then not bring up known e-mail addresses on them. Another pay search sight I can plug in an e-mail address and pull the IP address where they logged on over the last 5 years, from there I can once again reverse 411 and find whomever I’m looking for.

by sowhatifitisasportste on Mar 13, 2010 4:55 PM EST up reply actions  

Oh, really? You can reverse 411 an IP address? Because I’ve logged on to my e-mail from literally HUNDREDS of IP addresses over the years. Another thing about ISP assigned IP addresses? They’re dynamic. They’ll tell you the general idea of where someone is, but it won’t tell you the specific address. That’s not how it works. You act as though every building has one specific IP address ever.

how

even if we get May’s I’d like Burnett as the safety opposite of Mays, could be dangerous in 2-3 years w/ Asante, Kyle Wilson(if we get him) and these 2 guys

how do we get wilson and both of them .. since we only have 2 picks in the first two rounds ..

and btw fuck that .. curry aint worth kolb and a first .. thats rediculous .. kolbs untouchable for me

ehhh Kolb + Picks for curry

i like the post but id rather keep those picks and, if we were to trade any of them, package them differently. thats way too much for an unproven LB.

haha you have school tomorrow...

i have an inservice. take that!
but seriously, not bad suggestions. I have a feeling we’re gonna trade McNabb to somebody (SEA, CLE, idk) for an “offer we can’t refuse”. Also, I disagree on your draft picks. We will be drafting Kindle in the first. He just seems like an “Eagle” type player. Second round, we should go after that Hughes from TCU, if he’s even a second round prospect. If not, then draft a DE or LB here, whatever we don’t address in the first. Third round we should go after another LB, RB possibly, and line help.

Here's hoping for a better 2010...

um, the Air Force academy is pretty hard to get into, its out of state and

I cant play football there…

I want to stay in state so I can use my Bright Futures scholarship to pay the $75,000 of the $100,000 tuition(all 4 years) then use the $36,000 scholarship I’m getting from the school to pay for the rest of the $25,000 + about half of my board, then I’ll use the ROTC scholarship which is $180,000 to pay for everything else..

But even if I cant work it out like that the $180,000 ROTC scholarship will cover EVERYTHING I need then add the $8000 a year I get from the school and I dont really have to work.

I’ve just had alot of time to figure out what I want to do and so I figure if I cuss like a sailor, why not be one?? No but really I have this thing where I feel I have to serve my country, and I’d rather do it on my terms (which is get my education first) and on their dollar.

Im not even gonna touch the Kolb and all the picks one for ACurry, the more reasonable thing to do would be send Kolb and sum other pick for the hawks 6th and then take Berry but that will never happen hopefully, i dont want 2 give kolb up before seeing wat he can do for a full season. Wat do u people think will happen if we do that? Do i even have to say it??

by goldenbird09 on Mar 11, 2010 11:53 PM EST reply actions  

whose qb in 2011

if u trade kolb u gotta draft a Qb to groom for when Mcnabb is gone. What do we do with Vick? I believe Kolb is worth a first round pick.

first round pick

and then some

we had 44-6
you had 58-14
