I would give Revis a handjob if he stays in NE.
I don't know why people bring this up as if the Eagles need to worry about Chip leaving. No Chip needs to worry about being fired if this doesn't work out.
Plus even if we give up the farm for Mariota, the new rookie scale makes it so that we won't be tied to a terrible rookie QB contract. Plus considering the Eagles are always salary cap champs, even if we don't have all our draft picks they will have wiggle room.
Then again I'm not as obsessed with draft picks as most fans are.
Everyone wants Revis ... but does Revis want the Browns?!
I believe the NY Jets or Patriots or bust. I do not feel there will be some other team that swoops in (I have been wrong before)
Jets, more overall money and treated like a king in NY.
Pats, Chance to win it all but only a cog in the machine but still be highest paid corner back.
Why would Revis say no to the Browns and yes to the Jets?

I just want to resign Bulaga and sign maybe one or two other low-medium quality guys for depth. That'd make it a good Packers free agent season.
Hopefully just a dirt cheap insurance policy. I'll be upset if Ron Parker leaves.
Bucs.
Greg Hardy update:
Greg Arias ‏@TNFBExaminer 22m22 minutes ago
Per league source, Titans have inquired about Greg Hardy. Told Indy is the leader and Jags willing to open the wallett. Also if Revis (1/2)
Greg Arias ‏@TNFBExaminer 22m22 minutes ago
bolts, Belli and Pats will go hard after him too. Could hear from NFL on possible suspension by tomorrow. (2/2)
So AFC South, outside chance of Pats if Revis leaves

Did you follow what happened there? With the Jet's he was treated as a "starting quarterback" was. With the Patriots he can win, in both cases he will get paid.
He has ties to both, so I am not so sure there is a reason to go to the Browns/Chiefs/etc, mainly because the Jets will match any offer. That is how I see it anyways.

Jeez, I don't mind Hardy or anything, but I'd love to see them go after Revis. Him and Davis as our corners would take up a bunch of money, but if they could pay him big up front and less on the backend (so we can pay Luck), that would be HUGE.

I'm well aware what is happening here.
What you are saying is money doesn't matter to him, being treated as a "starting quarterback" is all that matters for a corner.
Eh...
Money does matter. But why can't you have both?! I am a Pat's fan BTW so you know my allegiance.
Bills have a blowjob from Rex and his wife on the table.
What is the Pats counter? Revis already rejected his mom getting bang and then ignored by the cheat.
We don't need a corner as good as Revis. I'd say DB is the least of our worries on defense. Vontae is top 3 tier, Tohler is a good #2, Butler has been good in the slot, we do need a safety though. Was hoping McCourtey would leave the Pats, but it looks like that's not happening. Adams has been good and Brown shows promise though, he played better than Landry's ole roided ass in some stretches.
We need some edge rushing LBs and some talent on the DL.
EDIT: I forgot that half of our D is in prison. We need an entirely different set of linebackers.

Hey Bowser Jr, how much does Hardy have left in the tank? On a scale of Luck to Peyton.

He's still very much in his prime. Assuming no fall off from not playing last year.
He's only 26
EDIT: And fuck you for calling me Bowser Jr. !
Him signing with Chiefs means Parker is leaving?
Looked into Parker and he graded out pretty low. So did Gilchrist from SD. But they also seem to be the guys Eagles are targeting.
Then again Nate Allen somehow graded well and no one would claim him to be anything better than garbage.
No one wants to sign with Chip when he will cut good players for mediocre white replacements.

They see Indy as being closer to a SB, plain and simple.
Are you talking about Shady? Because that trade was basically good in every way. This is about players wanting to win SBs in the near future.
Maybe Ed reed is on the plane to!

Come to Buffalo DeMarco. We can always use a reliable 3rd back, considering FredExpress is older than Roger Goodell.
I think, with Gore and Johnson, they both know they have 2-3 years left max. They can play with Andrew Luck or they can play with Nick Foles and Mark Sanchez (and the theoretical possibility of rookie Marcus Mariota). I think they made a logical choice, and it probably doesn't have anything to do with Chip cutting players.
Exactly. In this league, it is ALL about the franchise QB.
Which is why I'm on the #MariotaOrBust train.
Money and Hardy wouldn't even matter. Dude is going to get incentive based prove it one year deals. Only idiots would throw bank at him AKA not the Pats.
Looks like Indy is the new get away for banged upp olds. Having a few vets shouldn't hurt though.
Who will hold it down now that Bigfork is gone?
Thanks friend.
You a Bucs fan now, too?!
When are ya'll gonna get a real D line to stop the run though
So Peyton Hillis is the new Eagles RB?
I'm surprised they were seemingly in it until the end with Graham if that was truly the case.
George Johnson? Maybe he can fulfill my Rutgers-NYG connection after McCourty let me down.

I just feel like going after a 4-3 DE feels worse and out of scheme vs. going after a man coverage DB, which fits scheme perfectly.
I don't mind beefing up the front seven, because I agree that is a bigger concern (other than safety). Just not sure how I feel about going after guys like Hardy and Fairley, who don't fit scheme. I guess Robert Mathis figured it out...I just don't know.
So frustrating to have such a great young QB and not be able to figure out the trenches. Back in Peyton's days, with those big contracts, I can better understand it. But now? Just more frustrating.
