DeSean To Be Tagged & More FB Talk
Andy Reid wants DeSean Jackson back. He really does. He wants to pay him good money. The problem is that he and the Eagles are reportedly $2M per year off from what DeSean and Drew Rosenhaus want per year. That’s a significant difference.

Somehow, even after $66 million, T.O. is broke
Somehow, after accumulating more than $66 million in salary, Terrell Owens is completely broke.

Alex Morgan...

wow.

And T.O. is once again blaming everybody else for his finacial problems. Until he takes responsibility for his life, I’ll never respect him and he’ll never learn.

Uh, isn’t that what he’s saying? He said he trusted others to manage his money when he should have been more involved. And lots of people trust others to manage their money.

Damn T.O....

You earn money that people can only DREAM (team lol) about earning in a life-time and you’re suddenly broke? For fucks sake….

i may have the perfect idea

If the eaglea franchise desean, they can trade him to a team that needs a deep threat late in the draft (I.e the pats, or 9ers). They can get a 2nd round pick from them. Then use 2 of their 3 2nd rd picks (or all 3) to trade up for blackmon. Blackmon and the BC lb would be a great draft in a perfect world

by Eagles swag on Feb 14, 2012 8:44 AM EST via mobile reply actions

But that would mean they would pay 10M for a 3rd round pick??? That sounds like a shitty deal to me….not my money I guess….

What do u mean? 10m for a 3rd pick

by Eagles swag on Feb 14, 2012 10:02 AM EST via mobile up reply actions

we pay 10M for the tag…..which I presume we will need to pay regardless….then turn around and trade Desean for a 3rd….. Again I would presume we would need to trade him early enough in the season to get value….. so, in essence that is 10M for a 3rd rounder

We could get a 2nd rounder from the pats or 9ers…. in a perfect world. Especially with the pats needing one

The Pats would def benefit from him. They already have their big guys….and may lose their small speedy guy…..

Exactly. And my idea is a stretch, but blackmon and the lb ( can’t spell his name off the top of my head ) would be worth the 10m

by Eagles swag on Feb 14, 2012 10:20 AM EST via mobile up reply actions

Needing a deep threat that is

if the eagles tag and trade Jackson they dont owe him a dime…the tag is there to keep other teams from pursuing him (compensation is 2 first rounders to sign a tagged player) so he can work out a deal with his current team. that team can trade him for whatever they want and not owe him anything.

so if they tag him for 10M, youre saying they dont need to pay him a dime? Where does that money go?

Whichever team trades for him is responsible for that 10M, or if they want they work on a Lon term deal with lower money/year but more than 1 (franchise tag) year.

by SuburbanElite on Feb 14, 2012 11:21 AM EST via mobile up reply actions

so it doesnt get treated like a bonus or something….k….well in that case, the tag & trade option is more appealing…

Blackmon’s going in the top 4. We’d have to give up a lot more than 2 2nd round picks to move up and get him. We’d have to give up what the Falcons gave up for Julio Jones, maybe more, so 2 1sts, 2 4ths, and a 2nd. Yeah, no thanks.
