Eagles Timeline: 56 hours of Awesomesauce

For the sake of just putting this down on paper (or the Internets), let's just recount the last 56 hours so we don't lose track of all the wheelings and dealings of the Eagles' FO:

July 28, roughly 9:00am - Eagles sign Jason Babin - 58 tackles, 12.5 sacks, 2 FF playing in under 60% of the Titans' snaps last season.  LDE, done.  Next.

July 28, 2:45pm - Eagles trade Kevin Kolb for Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a 2nd round pick in 2012 - Heist.  RCB, filled.  And a high pick... for a player that if all goes well won't even play next season.  Next.

July 29, midnight-ish - Vince Young agrees to one year deal with Eagles - Man, that was a dicey 9 hours in which the Eagles didn't have the best backup QB in the NFL.  Next.

July 29, Roughly 6:00pm - Eagles sign Nnamdi Asomugha - Out of the clear blue sky, the Eagles sign either the 1a or 1b CB in the NFL.  Next.

July 30, 4:30pm - Eagles sign Cullen Jenkins - Again, out of the clear blue sky, the Eagles get themselves an excellent inside pass rusher.  But what to do with Brodrick Bunkley?  Next.

July 30, 5:00-ish - Eagles trade Brodrick Bunkley for a 5th round pick - By trading the suddenly expendable Bunkley, the Eagles save themselves $2 million in cap space, and add a 5th round pick.  The 5th round pick isn't that great, sure.  But that pick now gives the Eagles ELEVEN picks in the 2012 draft: 1, 2, 2 (Cards), 3, 4, 4 (Bucs), 5, 5 (Browns), 6, 6 (Broncos), 6 (Pats).

So that's where we stand.  And you know what?  I don't even think they're even close to being done.  NEXT!

Because then Carolina would have to give him all the guaranteed money they owe him right now, and their cap would take a HUGE hit(if it could even take that hit in the first place).

You can still trade, pending contract. Willis and …oh, I think we got a pick or 2…

There’s no chance that we trade Asante for Willis AND a pick. If anything we would have to give a pick up along with Asante to get Willis.

I meant that we still owe them a pick. So when I sai we have a pic or 2, I meant to add with Asante. I did’t clarify. My brain is mashed potatoes right about now.

but remember we need some money for Desean and watkins

Everybody is worried about cap. We are on of the best teams with our Cap management, and these contracts are really cap friendly. After we release/trade some dead weight, Parker, Hason, Maybe even Mick Patterson, we should have plenty of money left.

If they do go after a LB

It would probably be Morrison since he is the cheapest of the pack.

I think we should give the FO a big group hug

The way things are going,
I wouldn’t be surprised if we trade a 2nd for Andre Johnson,
Pick up AP All Day for Cooper and a 7th,
Sign Ray Lewis just because he wants to be an Eagle,
Pick up Revis since he’s kissing Nnamdi’s Ass,
and Beat the Cowboys 7 times in one season just because somehow it works out that way.
No I kid, but by god, I like the rest of my Eagle breathern have never been happier except maybe the 2005 Championship year.
