Let's rank our offseason moves

PrintNow that there has been enough games available, let's do just that. Also, let's discuss on who's going to stay and or/go.
Let's start w/ the coaches
Howard Mudd - I don't know that Howard will be back, especially is Andy is gone next year. I don't know that he wants to come back, I think he'll wan tto retire. Unfortunately, he proved to be a heck of a coach. Two rookie starters and we now have one of the better lines in the NFL. Certainly the best in the NFC E, although that's not saying anything. Our line was TERRIBLE last year under Juan Castillo.This signing is an easy A
Jim Washburn - I like the fire in this coach. I think Philly, with a blue collar fan base can appreciate Washburn stirring things up with heated emotion. His wide 9 scheme turned out to be pretty good. We have gotten to the QB many times with just rushing four. It really is up for debate how the scheme hurt us defensively though, as it doesn't appear we had the line backers to carry it out well.
Ike Reese made a good point, it took Washburn a few games to finally move in the ends in just a little bit to help out the run game...However, that seemed to come a few games too late as we have already dropped a few games with the run being an issue. I liked the off season signing back then, I still do... B+
Juan Castillo - We orignally thought that there was no way we could get a worse co-ordinator than Sean McDermott. We also figured there was no way to screw this defense up having an all pro corner, along side a pro bowl corner, with another pro bowl corner playing slot. Not to mention a 3 stellar pass rushers in Cullen Jenkins, Jason Babin, and Trent Cole. As it turns out, it could get a lot worse. This move was a complete bust and I originally was willing to give it a chance -- F
Trades.
Kolb/ 2nd rounder + DRC
Honestly, Kolb was just going to be a backup this year anyway. We ended up landing a high 2nd round pick and a young corner with pro bowl potential. Given the chance to play on the outside I thought he did really well. Had trouble playing out of his positon in the slot and he certainly is the worst tackling corner he was billed to be last year. I still think we did a good job on that trade though -- A if that second round pick turns out to be good, B if it's another LB/DE hybrid you can't play.
Signings
NA - When used properly he did what he did most of his career -- shut down corners. When Juan decided to turn him into something he's not? He looked a bit lost. I still think it was a great signing and if used properly next year he's going to help us out - A
Cullen Jenkins - I haven't seen a pass rushing talent at the DT position on the Eagles squad since Darwin Walker's good days, or Hollis Thomas' better days OR Corey Simon. Great hustle, love this signing, I hope he comes back next year - A
Vince Young - He did what I thought he was going to do and played like a mediocre QB. Although like Tebow, if the defense affords him the opportunity in crunch time, he doesn't fold under pressure. I still thought Marty would develop him better as a passer much like he did Vick. He also brought this whole dream team on us, that I don't see us living down anytime soon. C
Ronnie Brown - He's a good back up to LeSean McCoy. Didn't get any chances behind McCoy, who's lucky to get chances himself in some games. Also had one of the dumbest plays I have ever seen since Plaxico spiked the ball in his rookie year. C
Steve Smith - We basically paid 4 million dollars for a guy to sit behind Jackson, Maclin, Avant, and Cooper. He clearly wasn't ready to come back with his knee and gifted his old team an easy red zone INT in week 3. We could've easily resigned David Akers and Sav Rocca with this money -- both having pro bowl years. Heck, Akers is probably having an all-pro year.
Jason Babin - He's not the most disciplined player, he racks up penalties in each and every game. He plays with a lot of intensity and heart though. He also gets a lot of sacks while Cole gets all the blocking attention. This was the signing we needed to have a pass rush opposite side of Cole while Graham heals up this year. Good signing: A
Jarrad Page - The WORST safety play I have seen in a long time. And since Dawk got old/left, we have seen a lot of that. Helped destroy our defense tremendously in the first quarter of the season. F
Who we let go.....
Akers/Rocca - Our kicker hasn't kicked many long FGs, but seems to be money from 30-40 yards out. He also costs us the SF game by missing two chip shots. The punter Henrey hasn't impressed me at all. It's not like he's even inconsistent either. He's just good for about a 45 yard punt with avg hang time in each game.
Kolb - Probably would have beaten the Giants and lost to the Pats which makes the trade pretty good.
Ernie Simms - Well, it's not like our LBs improved all that much, so not a huge loss here.
Mikkel - He got paid and I don't blame him. But wow, we could have really used him. We really REALLY could have used Q. He had heart too, which is a shame, we needed that.
Stewart Bradley - Another guy who got paid and I don't think the Eagles were interested in signing him. It figures, a LB with size and the ability to stop the run and the Eagles didn't re-sign him. It helps ease the sting that he's not exactly grasping the 3-4 system, but we could've used him instead of the Casey Matthews disaster.
The Vick Resigning...This is an interesting one because in the preseason this was something we all thought had to happen. Vick looks like he has regressed a bit and has fumbled and turned the ball over all too often this season -- especially in the red zone. He has still shown brilliance at times with his ability to escape the pocket and run, but he definitely had a down year from last year. He also takes a lot of hits and predictably got injured from the concussion in week 2 to the ribs a few weeks ago. I still don't think Vick was a huge problem this year say as much as the defense, but he needs to improve as a passer next year.
All in all a few things stick out
- For going "ALL IN" we really let a few key pieces go including Mikkel, Akers and Bradley. You could make an argument that it even costs us games not having these guys in green.
- Again for going all in why why why would you sign an unproven coordinator? This absolutely costs us games and the season..
- Some of the signings were fantastic. Babin, Jenkins, and NA (when used right.)
- Again, when I look at the roster, I see enough talent to win. Absolutely more than enough talent to be better than 4-7. This season HAS to go on the coaching staff.

On Vick:
I feel like he’s trying to hard to be a pocket passer and that’s what’s hurting him. If he did what he did best and scrambled around, extending plays I think he would have a much better season.
I'm great like Gatsby.
by Clint Eastwood on Nov 29, 2011 10:22 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Most definitely. He’s not built to be a traditional pocket passer since with his height he legit has seeing problems. He just can’t see over large lineman that easily. And his point of release is low compared to other QBs because of his frame.
Also I feel Vick takes worse hits in the pocket.
Anyway, the threat of a rolling Vick is the reason we have the best rushing attack in the league.
exactly what turned mcnabb's career south too
when he tried to prove he was this pocket passer like brady/manning when in reality what make guys like that great is their ability to use their legs

Babin with an ‘A’ – No way. At best a B- and probably a C+ because he has been a zero in the run game and he completely disappeared in a few games from a pass rush perspective including the Bears & Pats games.
NA – Hasn’t lived up to the hype. He’s been good but he has also been mortal a few times this year and got burnt on costly TDs. I would say B+
Bradley would have been better than we the Eagles isn’t even starting in AZ. Eagles don’t miss him and I am glad they didn’t resign him. He’s simply hasn’t been the same player since he blew out his knee.
They do miss Mikell too but again he’s another guy this year that has been up & down and it didn’t make sense to give him a big payday. Eagles are almost always right about not giving their own players over 30 big dollars. They will be right about Mikell too.
I think some of NA's struggles
Are on Juan for using him incorrectly. ANd overall, if you look at the stat sheet , overall he has shut down the WRs he has faced

I'll address babin
Basically all we wanted last year was a guy who could offer a pass rush opposite side of Cole. We were lacking it for years and I think Babin came in and did just that.
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
Yes he has, but the shortcomings in the rest of his game just cant be ignored.
B-
and thats over looking the crazy amount penalty’s.
I may not be the most noble of men but in a town of lepers, im the one with the most fingers.
Giant LB'zz SUCK!! Mark Herzlich, Greg Jones,Jacquian Williams,Paysinger...Maybe not..
he also can't play the run
… which is what killed you guys last night.
They should have a stat – sacks v. 15+ yard runs given up on your side of the line. I’d guess Babin wouldn’t look so great.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7EwHVOescY
I wouldn’t go that high on Babin and Brown, but otherwise, it’s a pretty solid list.
AR should have to wear a Flava Flav necklace until he learns how to manage a fucking clock.
I am the proud target of temper tantrums.
Yeah there's not much to quibble with
I’ll probably post more where we get to the stay or go stuff, but even that is mostly obvious. There aren’t too many toss ups.
Man we could have used Mikell. I wanted that guy back and still do. We might draft another S.
Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring it Home for Jerome.
So, would you say that Howie Roseman is doing a good job?
I don’t mean to hijack your post, but I think it’s kind of related. Based on those moves how much blame for this season goes to Roseman? Reid and the entire coaching staff will probably be axed at the end of this year. Does that mean changes with the GM too?

I don’t know what Lurie will do with Banner/Roseman. It would absolutely affect who we would get as a coach if they stayed

- For going “ALL IN” we really let a few key pieces go including Mikkel, Akers and Bradley. You could make an argument that it even costs us games not having these guys in green.
I think that Mikell is the one that we missed the most, then Bradley. I am a big Akers fan but I think that we have gotten a year that we can expect from a rookie kicker. And I still blame the defense more than the kicker for the SF loss. Up 23-3 in the second half, you should win the game without scoring any more points.
— Again for going all in why why why would you sign an unproven coordinator? This absolutely costs us games and the season..
Yep, and I don’t buy the no camps due to lockout argument. That’s BS. Why would you hire an unproven DC when you know that there will be less time for him to work with the players if you are all in.
- Some of the signings were fantastic. Babin, Jenkins, and NA (when used right.)
Agree, especially Jenkins.
- Again, when I look at the roster, I see enough talent to win. Absolutely more than enough talent to be better than 4-7. This season HAS to go on the coaching staff.
Do we really have that much talent? What I mean is, are we top 5, or top 10, like I have seen written here? Are we more talented than the more successful teams of the Reid era? I’m not sure about that. But I agree with you on coaching.
Regarding talent, I think that we have to grade an F for the lack of addressing the talent at the LB position. We brought in Washburn to run wide 9 and I read comments on hear about how we don’t have the LB’s to make it work. A lot of comments. Why didn’t the coaching staff / front office recognize that?
Maybe we have a lot of talent but it is concentrated at certain positions, and lacking in others?
Go Eagles!
Why would you hire an unproven DC when you know that there will be less time for him to work with the players if you are all in.
Because you are Andy Reid and you are arrogant.

Can't disagree with you there
I don’t think they thought Nte Allen was going to struggle as much as he did up to this point with his knee injury either. Safety play has hurt us every bit as bad s LB play. I would agree, if you’re going all in and putting all these pro bowlers on the line and secondary, why leave LBs so bleak. Hell even average players would’ve worked
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
I absolutely blame Henery for the SF game
The defense can share in the blame. They had a shitty half. But an NFL kicker is supposed to make 39-yard kicks. And hey, we understand, you miss one every once in a while. So here, here’s a 33-yard attempt for you to redeem yourself.
WHAT? YOU MISSED THAT SHIT TOO?!?!?!?
Dude cost us a game. Like everything with the Eagles this season, a lot of factors helped cost us that game.
I also still like the pick of Henery. You had to move on from Akers at some point, might as well grab the NCAA’s most accurate kicker in history — he only comes out of college once in a lifetime.
One of the made kicks could have undone all the other crappiness we witnessed in the SF game, but overall the kicking game has been very close to the least of our worries and appears set going forward.
Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring it Home for Jerome.
That's just it
One of the made kicks could have undone all the other crappiness we witnessed in the SF game
The kicks were on the long list of things that went wrong that game. Take any one of those things off of the list and we win.
Maclin doesn’t fumble maybe we win.
Brown doesn’t brain fart inside the 5 maybe we win.
Defense doesn’t gives up 21 points late maybe we win.
Etc.
The guy has only missed one other kick this year, It doesn’t make any sense to waste anytime focusing on him when he really isn’t a problem.
Go Eagles!
Yeah I think we're saying the same thing
I’m not focused on the kicking game. Don’t ignore the rest of the blockquote:
One of the made kicks could have undone all the other crappiness we witnessed in the SF game, but overall the kicking game has been very close to the least of our worries and appears set going forward.
And yes, the SF game to me is the poster for this season: So much gone wrong and yet so close to winning that you can’t really pinpoint the blame on any one thing. Totally agree.

I'm not lovin the Akers / Henery moves
Akers seems to still have quite a bit left in the tank. Henery has looked weak to me. The misses in the SF game and when he was almost short and wide on a 37 yard kick against the Bears left me feeling shaky about him. I don’t feel confident in him at all if you need him to kick a 40 + yarder at the end of a game.
Plus it seems like most successful kickers in the NFL kind of come from no where and develop.

Ronnie Brown is a C? He’s really done nothing besides probably cost you 1 game.
Mikell and Stew are having bad years. I didn’t want to see either of them go, but it looks like the right move was made in both cases.

He cost us 3 points
The signing overall, is what I’m looking at. To be honest, RB, is not a bad back up to Shady
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
I like it at the time, but in retrospect he doesn’t appear to be doing anything that Lewis couldn’t be doing.

The back up RB never does anything for Philly
But let’s say McCoy goes down. Do you trust Lewis over Brown? I don’t, especially in pass blocking as Lewis is severely under sized in that respect. The point is moot anyway since the season is flushed even if McCoy does go down…
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
I'll give you what I think:
Nnamdi Asomugha: When used properly, has been performing to his shut-down potential. But he’s been human at times (Beat by Cruz for a TD twice, struggled against Brandon Gibson Week 1). B+
Cullen Jenkins: I was ecstatic about this signing, and he’s been a force in the middle. Also appears (at least) to be developing into a leader on defense. I give it A-
Steve Smith: Total waste of money. Could’ve been used on a veteran linebacker or safety. D
Howard Mudd: In my opinion, the best addition this offseason. Our O-line is still pretty patchwork with two rookies holding it down, yet I find myself complaining about it less and less each week. A
Juan Castillo: Seriously? F
Vince Young: Pretty much word for word with you on this one. I figured he’d be mediocre if he ever saw the field, but he did put together a beautiful drive against the Giants. C
As far as Q goes, he’s had an up and down year with STL, and it didn’t surprise me at all that the Eagles released him. I’d love for him to be starting right now, but he would’ve asked for a big payday, which the Eagles never give to players his age (unless you count Vick).

Juan reason
the Eagles have fell back and the is the signing of a DC with no experience which I could only assume will be fixed the off season and will be done quickly. the rest of the team works why cant our defense when there is way more talent then anywhere else in this league.
Bullcrap
Castillo has underperformed, but you have to put some of these losses on the offense and special teams too. You could break it down further by position, or break it down further specific instances in each game.
There has been inadequate personnel, misused personnel, turnovers, missed kicks of under 40 yards, people playing hurt and not telling anybody, clock-related brainfarts, ball-security related brainfarts, dropped passes in key situations, running back not getting carries, not being able to protect leads, not being able to put together a game-winning drive when down one score, a lack of chemistry, no sense of urgency and a host of other things I surely forgot.
Anybody who says they can pinpoint the problem with the Eagles this season is either oversimplifying or a hack who has no idea what he’s talking about.
(no offense dcE, but that’s my general feeling on it)

It would have made some sense if he had tons of previous NFL defensive coaching experience. But his last gig coaching D was what in the 80’s at a high school? No thanks

What about getting Evan Mathis?
I think my favorite acquisitions were Jenkins and Mathis. I was stoked to get Namdi but it was still confusing with trading for DRC and whatnot. After a while, our signings became laughable to me and in my gut I thought it would backfire but I was so amped with the talent coming in on big signings that I wouldn’t believe it. Then it happened.
Still under the firm belief we should have signed Tulloch to play behind the wide 9 like he did in Tenn as I’m sure a lot of people are.
Mathis- A
Babin- B
Jenkins- A
Nnamdi(when playing to his strength)- A
Page- F
Vince Young- B for backup
Ronnie Brown- D
Steve Smith- C
Kolb Trade- A, like you said if the pick can turn into a viable starter who can produce. Otherwise, B.
Mudd signing- A
Washburn signing- A
Juan promotion- I wish there was a worse grade than F for this one.
Yes Mathis was the best player pickup we made.

For a cheap, few week stop-gap, who can come in knowing the system, I think he grades average.

Except he was terrible in both the pass and the run
I think an inexperienced Watkins could’ve done the same thing
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
He did exactly what he was expected to do
Come here and hold on for dear life until Danny Watkins was ready.
I mean I guess if you gave Page a grade you can give this guy a grade too, but neither player was supposed to be a major piece and they are both currently where they belong - not on this 4-7 team.
Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring it Home for Jerome.
And I am
sorry but forgot to state this earlier, the one that I am most disappointed with is Akers, we have an average kicker and hopefully he will get better by next season but damn,, Akers having a probowl year again and he has not shown any signs of slowing down, Worst special teams move of the year and Rocca is a close 2nd on bad release
Henery has been OK
He’s 18-21 in field goals. Granted he has not attempted a lot of long ones (2-3 from 40+) yards. I know that Akers is having a great year and all, but still, swapping Akers for Henery is way down the list for boneheaded moves made in the off season.
The kicking game is not why we are 4-7.
Go Eagles!
Agree, as posted above
I put the SF game mainly on the two missed kicks even though the D was also horrible and the O failed to cash in in the Red Zone and had turnovers, but still … the kicks could have glossed over all that and perhaps changed the season (or bought enough time for this flawed team to disappoint us later).
Still, our old kicker was 36 and balking at the contract offer. The most accurate kicker in the history of the NCAA, who’d kicked outdoors in high-pressure situations, was in the draft. We got him with a fourth-round pick, and we had one to burn because we picked up one the year before by moving back eight spots in a trade with Tampa Bay.
That’s a savvy move.
Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring it Home for Jerome.
One question for some
There are a some persons here who says that Babin is B-/C+ because he can’t play the run and then says that Nnamdi is an A because he is a shut down corner when used properly. Well, when Babin is used properly (rushing the passer) he is an Pro Bowl player. So in your mind he should be an A+ (when playing his strengths) or Nnamdi should be an B-/C+ player because he is not that good in zone.
Or thirdly
are we grading just on how good the move is vs. how it panned out, not how capable the player is?

Moves like Shady
So nobody took Jodie up on his second part: Stay or Go
I’ll set it off:
(players not expected back next year from eaglescap.com)
YOUNG: GO. But not because he’s inadequate. He’s gotten enough of an audition here to get someone to bite on making him a starter. Kafka could be ready to be the No. 2.
BROWN: GO. Was really excited for this move, but except for the conversion on the Giants drive and the TD vs. the Bears, has literally done nothing.
SCHMITT: STAY. They’ll bring in competition like always. Not sure it matters.
JACKSON: STAY. Originally I wrote “noncommital.” I’d have him back on a reasonable contract, but there’s more of a case now than ever to let him walk. Since we hold the franchise tag, we can have him back if we want him. However many million that is is going to be better than going into free agency on this steaming dump of a season.
SMITH: GO. Giants, take him back. Please.
DUNLAP: STAY. Extend this man. Cheaply. Never thought I’d be a fan, but he’s earned it.
MATHIS: STAY.
JUSTICE … under contract and played well in one start this year but could be a casualty. Depends on how much Mudd likes him I guess. Assuming Reid/Mudd are back.
I’ll do defense in a minute.
Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring it Home for Jerome.
SMITH: GO. Giants, take him back. Please.
strangely, i think i would. he’d be a year removed from his injury, still young, and already knows our system. plus i’m getting a sinking feeling we’re losing Manningham at years end, so we can use him for depth. but he’d fall back to third on the depth chart(or 4th if Barden starts to ball out)
Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....

Plus he could give his playbook to Fewell.

Defensive stay or go
PARKER: GO. It’s been a good run. But we’ve got Cole-Babin-Graham-Tapp and a gang of draft picks. You know they’re burning one of those up on a DE. Oh, and Phillip Hunt too. I can see Parker back if after the draft we somehow don’t take anyone and Parker doesn’t have another job, he can come back like Hanson, for the glad-to-have-a-job minimum.
LAWS: GO. Has nice moments but not enough of them. Landri is more of a keeper, and Dixon will be back from injury along with Patt and Jenkins. Them’s the roster spots. Plus Cedric Thornton.
Since all the LBs make between 489,000-700,000, they’re all under contract.
I think Rolle and Chaney are definitely back, in roles yet to be determined. Anybody else could have a job or could be out of one.
SAMUEL. GO. It’s been grand, but … no need to really explain why, is there?
CASTILLO: STAY. Just messing with you.

Nnamdi
I think I’m a loner here but I’m going to be honest. I’d give him a C+

Formerly number5
RIP JJ

didn't he get burned again in the second game against Cruz?
but yeah, the discussions about how Nnamdi is as good, if not better than Revis, can finally be put to rest now.
Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....
