Eagles Officially Announce Signing Of Vince Young, Donald Lee & Johnnie Lee Higgins

Photo

While there's no doubt that the acquisition of Nnamdi Asomugha will overshadow pretty much everything the Eagles and most other teams do this offseason... there is other business to be done. In addition to Nnamdi, the Eagles also officially announced that they've agreed to a one year deal with QB Vince Young. We took a more in depth look at Young and what his possible impact could be yesterday when the news broke that the two sides had agreed in principle.

Also, while announcing the Nnamdi deal, the Eagles GM Howie Roseman also revealed that they agreed to terms with TE Donald Lee of the Packers and WR/KR Johnnie Lee Higgins, formerly of the Raiders.

Higgins only caught 10 passes last year, but he does have a lot of experience as punt and kick returner. In 2008, Higgins returned three punts for TDs and averaged 13 yards per return. He's likely here to compete for a roster spot on special teams.

Lee is a big 6-4, 248 pound blocking TE who has spent the last six seasons with the Packers. He actually caught 11 TDs between 2007 and 2008 when injuries to Bubba Franks gave him a chance to play more. Since then however, he's been mostly kept to blocking duty. It's a low key signing, but one that certainly fills a role that the Eagles have lacked in recent seasons. Maybe now they can stop asking Celek to block so much and have him focus on things he's actually good at...

Yeah...the Higgins signing..

…was a head-scratcher. I see an average wideout when I look at him. And I can’t say I would rather have him over Riley Cooper or Chad Hall because of the dimensions those two add. Not to mention the potential upside of DeAndre Brown and the size of Terrance Turner.

We know what Higgins is…we’ve seen it. He’s average, at best. And we are so top heavy that it doesn’t make sense to get a player like him. Maybe he’s an excellent special teamer, but this one doesn’t make sense.

But, they get a big ass PASS for today!

I wish we would've sign Vince for two years.

He’s in a perfect position to become VERY valuable two years from now. More than likely, whether it be from blowing people out and resting Vick, to Vick missing some time, to us locking up homefield advantage by Week 15 and resting Vick, Young will get some work this year in this system. And I think that he doesn’t even have to show much in the way of improvement to get a chance to start next year. The only thing he really needs to do is NOT have a meltdown. As long as the only reason he is in the paper is due to a good game, he has the potential to be right where Kolb was two days ago in two years. And like the Eagles did with Kolb, we would’ve been in a perfect position to benefit from it. Either as our QB of the future or as our Rodgers-Cromartie and a second.

I’m not making excuses for him. I’m just being realistic. Maybe he is crazy. Maybe he was even suicidal. But we KNOW he has AMAZING talent. We KNOW he wins games. And we know with both of those things, as long as he has a quiet year off the field, he will be sought after again.

Agreed

he has a ton of talent. But if a man can straddle the fence on killing himself what says he can’t shoot the coach or the whole locker room. Everyone can grow. Look at Vick. But signing a 1 year contract to see how he is was a good idea. Thats my point.

I get your point..

But the Eagles normally combine their risk with the hint of huge reward. In other words, there are four possible outcomes to this situation and in two of them, we don’t benefit much.

1. Vick stays healthy and VY does nothing all year. However, he doesn’t have any hiccups and someone wants to take a chance on him. We signed him to a 1 year deal…he walks as a free agent. Reward: 0
2. Vick gets hurt for an extended period of time . VY comes in and balls out of control and attributes his turnaround to Andy and Marty. We just gave Vick an extension so he is still our QB…VY signs a Kevin Kolb like deal. Reward: 20 (Games played and probably won as backup)
3. Vick gets hurt for an extended period of time. VY comes in and plays TERRIBLY. No one wants him. We cut him. Reward: Negative 30 (Games played and probably lost as backup + realization that Andy and Marty can’t make every reclamation project work.)
4. VY goes extra bananas due to the crazy Philly fans and media. He goes on suicide watch. Lockerroom divided and focus lost. Reward: -80

Where is the reward from this situation that the Eagles normally plug in? If we signed him for two years, we control the right to TRADE him or CUT him. And the contract is probably insanely incentive laden…so I’m sure it would’ve been loaded with dead money. That’s all I’m saying.

I-C-Y-U-H8-ME

by Qwest on Jul 29, 2011 10:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

Umm...

I’d say it’s like this:

1. Vick stays healthy, VY learns we let him walk at the end of the year.. Reward? 10 because we had a capable backup on a superbowl capable year.

2. Vick gets hurt misses some time, VY goes out there and produces, wins say 3 of 4 games that Vick is out.. Reward? I’d say about 40 because he won us games, which probably keeps us in the playoffs.

3. Vick gets hurt misses some time. VY goes 1-3 in that span. Andy can’t fix everything, Marty can’t fix anything.. Reward? None, but no bad effects really.

4. Vick’s hurt for a long time (10 games, playoffs).. VY comes in and goes ballistic, has a probowl year. We franchise him with the intentions of going younger.. Reward? 100… we end up trading Vick for a pick.

5. Vick’s hurt for a long time (10 games, playoffs).. VY comes in starts losing, we bench him for Kafka, he goes crazy and Philly rips on him.. Reward? None, but honestly like VY’s going to divide our locker room.

Problem with the big rewards in your scenario...

…We obviously don’t want to keep Vick franchised this year. Even if we only wanted him for one more year, we would prefer to sign him long term than have him play a year under a contract whose whole dollar value hits the cap.

So if we want to sign him longterm, we have the intentions of him being our starter for the next 2-3 years minimum. However, we signed him longterm and that contract is on our books and now we have to sign VY to a contract immediately, which will also hit our books.

DeSean is easily better than Holmes. Dude has one season over 1,000 yards. DeSean Jackson was crazy close in his rookie year and has gone over a thousand back to back. Over the past 3 years Jackson has more TDs than Holmes as well.

we usually agree

but I’ve seen games where Big Ben would go to Holmes for consecutive plays and on that drive hit him 3-4 times. DeSean keeps a defense honest making a safety be over top. Holmes can run a 10 yard out or a comeback route and use his body to screen the defender. DeSean can run to open space and so can Holmes. But Holmes can post up and creat space when there is none. Its an added dimension.

Signing solid backups to help improve this teams depth?

Getting Nnamdi and turning our team into Superbowl contenders?

The way I see it..

Young’s on a year long try-out..

Lee’s here to compete with Harbor..

Higgin’s is competing with Cooper, Moss, Hall, the rest of them.. and the RB’s we signed to compete at returns.

Oh and the Eagles have Nnamdi.

Defensive player of the year for 2011 is...

Wild_Eagle!

Yes, Wild_Eagle's infamous reputation did help him get this award. But he shows that he walks the talk that he serves...with his keyboard. Wild_Eagle protects the motherland (BGN) from the evils of noobs, douche-bags, and other assholes. Although he may be crude and unnecessary, all great defenders draws the yellow flag from time to time.

my

man!

Joe Banner is Evil Banners father. Kinda like Luke and Darth Vader.

Juan Castillo switching from the offensive line coach to Defensive coordinator is soooo dumb it might just work.

I expected a contract more like Vicks for VY, a two year deal worth about 2 mil for this year and around 5 for year two with incentives. Strange 1 year deal for 5.5 mil with incentives for a backup seems silly right?

I mean I’m glad it’s only a 1 year deal so hopefully he’s gone next year but still seems odd.

Also does incentive money go against the cap? If so bye bye Asante. We are going to need to sign Vick to an extension to make some room to sign DeSean and that might not be enough.

Why do lots of Phillies fans seem to hate winning?

Q: What do a leaky tampon and Sean McDermott's defense have in common?
A: They are equally ineffective in the red zone.

Performed my happy dance as soon as I got out of the movie theatre(Captain America (Y)). Phuck yes, Nnamdi. And then I got word about Vince…it’s going to be a good season. Btw are we keeping Asante? DNA is pretty cool…

Why shouldn't the Heat celebrate? They just made it to the ECF by winning a game show quiz.

VY contract

the biggest mistake of the eagles whole offseason idk if anyone has paid attention to his contract but he is set to make 5.5million on a one yr contract are you serous he is making the same amount of money as jason babin we could have signed a star LB with that money an got a way cheaper capable backup QB in troy smith i cnt believe we are ganna pay him that amount of money another 400k a yr an we could have ray edwards instead of VY

I think Ray Edwards’ awareness in the pocket is questionable and his throwing action needs some work
