Eagles sign Walter Thurmond, who played his college ball at.... you guessed it, Oregon.
Chip Kelly is a fucking disaster.
I think they had the chance to make a large chunk of money and are now getting out before they do even more irreparable damage to their bodies. Willis can look at someone like Junior Seau and think, "That could be me in ten years if I don't get out soon."I am curious as to why so many relatively young guys are walking away from the league. Worilds, Locker, and Willis. Locker was the only one that was chronically hurt. Willis was out last year, was he having trouble rehabbing?
Also, the last 25 posts or so.... what the fuck?
http://mmqb.si.com/2015/03/11/jameis-winston-roger-goodell-nfl-trades-free-agency-retirement/The Rams-Eagles trade will take a long time to figure out. The deal no one saw coming was Sam Bradford and a fifth-round pick in 2015 for Nick Foles, a fourth-round pick in 2015 and a second-round pick in 2016. The Rams had multiple trade options for Bradford, who has had two straight seasons ended with ACL tears to his left knee, but by Monday were focused on Philadelphia because the Eagles had something no other involved team could tradea potential starting quarterback like Foles.
What I was told reliably Tuesday night: Philadelphia coach/power-czar Chip Kelly loves Bradford, feels Bradfords the right guy to run his fast-paced offense, and this from an insider on the trade of the day: Chip came hard after Bradford. Thats why this happened. I know many of you think this is some sort of precursor to Kelly stockpiling weaponry to chase Marcus Mariota in the first round of the draft, but I dont think so. There arent a lot of GMs in the league who would think Bradford is clearly better than Foles. So to trade up for Mariota, from where the Eagles sit at 20, would take first-round picks this year and next year, the second-round pick this year, Bradford, and probably more. That assumes the Titans or Jets actually want the risky Bradford and would sacrifice dealing down to number 20 this year in the process. I dont see it. Its far more likely that, as my source says, Kelly is smitten with Bradford, who ran a fast-paced offense at Oklahoma his final season even though he is more suited to a classic NFL scheme.

Maybe the players are "softer" now or whatever, but I kind of admire it.
Man how quickly Chip fell as soon as the deal was confirmed to not switching the 1st round picks.

...Eagles got more value for McCoy than they had any business getting.
What the fuck is that shit?
I woke up hoping it was a bad dream, but alas, Revis is no more.
Ever time the Pats let someone go, they had a plan, this does not feel like they have a plan. I almost feel like yesterday passed them by. Are there any CBs in the draft? Not that they can develop corners well from their track record. Maybe move Devin back?! Haha. I keed.
So where was this program for Vick and Foles??
I was exaggerating a bit, but you really don't think they could have gotten something better for McCoy? The guy is 26, in his prime and is a premiere player in the league. An MVP candidate two seasons ago. Sure he is making a decent penny, but isn't it worth it? It's not like the Eagles are designating that money elsewhere.
The Jets would have 100% gave their 6th round pick for Foles and McCoy. They got fucking Sam Bradford and a decent defensive guy. They got played.
My opinion as well.
I'm assuming the Jets would have more than happily given the #6 for Foles, McCoy, and the #20 pick overall. They could also have offered that to Tennessee and probably made it work.
As I've said over and over he has traded, cut, lost out on for DeSean, Maclin, and McCoy with only Kiko Alonso to show for in return.
Terrible deals. You can make a case why it was smart moving from these players but they have recieved nothing in return for compensation.
Completely bummed out. Sam Bradford is our QB. Feels bad bro.

Actually, more than a visit for RB Ryan Mathews with he Eagles. He's expected to sign with the team, source says.
If he's healthy, he's a nice pickup. A big "if" though.
Alonso, Bradford, Thurmond, Matthews.... I'm noticing a trend with these pickups.

Awful. If we want an often injured RB why not Spiller? Or a draft pick?
Fuck man. Howie where are you?
I guess we will be all injured team full of what if potential. Only way this offseason is saved for me now is if they sure up the OLINE and sign someone like Rahim Moore to play safety.
Probably won't finish with more than 6 wins.
Apparently Uncle Rog met with Jameis Winston in New York last week.
I don't remember Zach Mettenberger or Johnny Manziel getting called into the Principal's Office prior to being drafted.
Calm yourself Iago.
