Does he play special teams?
I’m assuming he’d be taking Eldra’s role, but to a higher level. Basically be a realiable banger for short yardage (allowing weaver to lead block) and maybe to help closeout games when we’re ahead.
Overall though unless McNabb is leaving and we’re going to be rushing more… unless he can contribute on special teams as well, I’m just not very interested in his skills.
what does McNabb leaving
have to do with rushing more
Let's get it Birds.

yep, you're dreaming.
The Eagles WILL redeem themselves in the '10-'11 season, with a win at SuperBowl 45 in Dallas!
Why taking Eldra's role?
Eldra would be in the same role, McCoy would be the 1 and Fargas the 2.
Seems like he’d be splitting touches with McCoy (I’m reluctant to use the phrase “taking Westbrook’s role”)

Fargus???
FAIL!!!!!
Here's hoping for a better 2010...
RIP JJ, Steve, The Rev, and last but not least, Goodbye Dawkins ):
He did fail the Raiders physical
Oof, didn’t realize that. The Eagles will definitely make him take a physical before they offer him a contract though.
IIRC the Raiders say he failed, he says he didn’t, but whatever. The one that counts is the Eagles physical.

in his interview...
he said he took a physical for the Eagles…
"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."

I think fargas could be a good runner for this team. he was splitting time with one or two other running backs on a terrible team with a bad O line, no QB and no WRs. He was a 1000 yrd rusher on said bad team 2 seasons ago, so let’s give him a shot.
Chase Utley is so good that on one pitch he stole second, third and the shortstop's hat.
fargas
fargas will get just as many carries as mccoy .. hes not buckley .. hes a legit nfl back .. something buckley is not

Whenever a new player is getting some attention, it’s always fun to predict… “Will JIBTA like him or not?”
I got this one right. Yay!
if they are mediocre or have an outlandish personality JIBTA will like them … if they are white or have a majority following he will not like them.
They call me The Professor.
hey hey
he had dreads before so hes ok with me ,, if he can grow them back i would sign him tommorow lol

1/8th rule?
or one drop rule?
"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."

I actually think this is possible.
fargas will get just as many carries as mccoy
LOL @ the “Will JIBTA like him” string.
Speaking for the fellow mixed folks, it’s always one drop. Or at least, I’ve never received official notification of that rule’s repeal.

Ok he wants to play for the eagles pretty bad so that means that they could lock him up for a pretty good price I say sign him…
i think he want to sign a contract
but the eagles want a physical first
To me the Eagles are like that girlfriend that pisses u off, then u hate her, but the next morning you wake up and remember that thing u love so much about her

Fargas would give us
the tough, hard hittin attitude we need on offense. I have good friends who are Raiders fans and I blasted them every week about Huggie Bear but when I watched him, he gave his all EVERY play and always got the tough yards. Perfect back to fix our ‘3rd & short’ woes

He’s pretty freaking fast, apparently.
The Raiders took note of Fargas at the scouting combine when he posted a 4.32 second 40-yard dash time on what was described as a slow track.
Just remember
No matter what happens to the Eagles, at least you are not a Michigan fan. It’s not fun
GO CUSE, BLUE, AND EAGLES!
