The Linc - Fists Start Flying At Lehigh

Eagles notebook: Fists start flying, a sure sign that camp is in full swing - pressofAtlanticCity.com: Sports
Defensive end Jason Babin, who was involved in a brawl a day during his last stint with the team in 2009, started it off by swapping blows with rookie guard Julian Vandervelde. Other duels included defensive tackle Derek Landri against center A.Q. Shipley, linebacker Moise Fokou against rookie guard Danny Watkins and rookie center Jason Kelce against defensive end Darryl Tapp.

Asomugha - Philly's Charles Woodson? | ProFootballFocus.com
Nnamdi is stingy with the receptions he gives up, allowing just 13 receptions last season. Think about that for a second – receivers will get 13 receptions in a game, and Asomugha only gave that up over fourteen weeks. His percentage of receptions per coverage snap is also far better than any other cornerback last season, and those numbers have been at a crazy level for a few years now.

Vick and makeshift receiving corps have strong day in passing game - The Washington Post
Eagles quarterback Michael Vick completed a pass against Asante Samuel during training camp Saturday and the always-chatty cornerback challenged Vick to try it again. "Do that again, Vick," he yelled. The quarterback obliged him on the very next play, completing a bomb against Samuel to wide receiver Johnnie Lee Higgins, whom the team recently signed as a free agent.

Eagles' DeSean Jackson to end holdout | Philadelphia Inquirer | 08/06/2011
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - With the Eagles steadfast on not renegotiating his contract and the date that he would lose a year toward free agency set in stone, DeSean Jackson has decided to end his holdout.

Star-divide

Eagles go four corners on 'D'
They've insisted they can find room for three Pro Bowl-level cornerbacks on the field at the same time, and the Philadelphia Eagles proved it Friday on the first day all players were able to practice.

Eagles Extras: An NFL Jersey Number Costs $10,000+
According to the Eskin family, defensive lineman Jason Babin shelled out in excess of $10,000 to Trevor Laws to get the coveted No. 93. Mind boggling numbers there, literally.

I was super skeptical at first but...

I think I’m going to love Danny Watkins. He was a firefighter, he is intelligent, he is hard working and he is super aggressive. He looks like he is about to end Fokou’s life right there. He seems like a badass.

The Eagles need to figure out a way to get Evan Mathis, Todd Herremans, Danny Watkins and Mike McGlynn on the field at the same time. Those are some dirty, dirty guys who are tough as nails. Jason Kelce is bad dude too.

That's exactly what everyone should want in offensive linemen

It’s actually refreshing to see so many throwback man-beasts on the offensive side of the ball.

Speaking of man-beasts. I may or may not have a man crush on Evan Mathis, the guy is awesome. His twitter is hilarious.

I let Nnamdi field questions for me. "@TomHarnisch: when’s your big press conference ?"
That’s what she said. "@TomHarnisch: I like the new number ."

Because he is #69, get it?! GET IT?!

He was shown walking next to me. "@TomHarnisch: @EvanMathis66 was shown all day walking next to Nmandi on NFL network"

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta. Wait… I mean damn it feels good to be back on the field.
@JasonBabin93 Cute profile pic. You make that yourself?

 
Personally I like the Jason Babin tweet, Babin is tool and a half.

That's awesome

And yeah to the Babin thing.

There are a number of ways to establish yourself as a man-beast. Posting a half-nude photo of yourself in black and white is the best way to establish yourself as a complete and utter toolbag.

Seriously – do people even think about how stupid they make themselves look?

Yeah, I think Watkins is going to be a win and, yes he also looks like he’s getting ready to put him in an arm bar.

Watkins

Watkins looked really good on the 1-1 drills, too…he has extremely quick feet for his size and uses his hands well…

Watkins took it easy on Fokou

Otherwise he would have sweatered him first.

Good to see that fire

Good to see that whate ever Fouko said Watkins challenged him on it. Watkins probably told him I’ll give you cpr ****.

I hate using Nnamdi in a Woodson role. Why don’t they just put him on the best receiver and let him do his thing?

And In watching Eagles live, the right Tackle position is fucked. Ronnie Brown looks legit, and this season is going to start off sloppy with so little time to prepare with a complete roster of new guys.

Harris looked great to me.

yep..

My thought exactly…without Harris, this was going to be a huge hole…if Harris is healthy, I’m confident we’re going to knock some teams backwards with the new attacking style.

by AstrosFan on Aug 7, 2011 11:16 AM EDT up reply actions  

Right tackle is much better with Ryan Harris in the fold

Austin Howard, King Dunlap, and Fenkou Topuoi (yeah, it’s spelled wrong) haven’t exactly ‘held down the fort’, but they’re also incredibly unlikely to make the team.

Newspapers consist of complete idiots

No offense to anybody here who may be in those fields, I’m sure you’re the exception. One of the bigger papers around here did a special report on our golf team when I was back in school. The picture of me was entitled “Jacob O… driving off the first green.” Anybody who has ever played golf knows you don’t “drive” off the green, you drive off the tee box. And most would say “teeing off from,” not “driving off.” Lol, sorry about the rant.
