I was Adam Schefter’s source on this one.

Also YAY!

I finally figured out that you have to click the timestamp of a particular tweet to link to it. Not being able to figure that stuff out makes me feel dumb.

That’s not even Reggie Brown money!

That is the first thing I thought.

Did his agent miss that? He should have been like:
By the way(you fat fuck, under his breath coughing), you have a player on your roster that makes more money than my client, and he doesn’t even play. 27 million dollars for your 6th WR, I think for a 3rd we should get double that, right? So, can I have some more money please?

Should have happened already, I don’t know what is going on with those guys.

At least Witherspoon actually played more than 3 games in the last 2 seasons. I think they are being nice to Kevin because of some type of equal oppurtunity shit. They did it in the Army… to keep their numbers right.

Damn

Thats a lot of money for a 3rd WR… It was a needed signing though

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

On a team...

that passes the ball 65% of the time and in a WC offense, a 3rd receiver that goes over the middle and catches everything should be paid like a high-end 2nd receiver.

hes a third

but he plays like a first or a second

by rainvillefromottawa on Mar 8, 2010 5:26 PM EST reply actions

plays like a 1st or 2nd, AND...

He can play a vital role in the locker room, as well as a role model for JMAC and especially DJAX…although I love DJAX, he’s quite cocky and needs to be humbled.

Listening to his interview right now on WIP. Can you find a much nicer guy in the NFL than Avant? Classy guy

I just heard that too. Not many pro athletes like him.

He’s happy cause he just got paid. No, but seriously, I heard his interview on WIP and he was great, said all the right things. I’m very glad to have him.

I also think the Eagles just sent the younger receivers a message – be a good soldier and produce, and you’ll be taken care of.
