  • Eagles are stupid if they don't bring in a FA wide receiver.

    Maclin is replaceale, so replace him.

    Cooper is a D bag, so cut him.

    Bring in another WR. Doesn't have to be Brandon Lloyd.

    They clearly aren't impressed with what's on the street or it already would have happened. Or, they think what they have is already as good as what can be got.

    Now it seems the more viable route is to wait for some cuts or finagle a trade for somebody.

    I think if there are no other injuries they will be okay there. But if they lose Jackson or Avant, they're fucked.

    Here's who's available. Bunch of old guys and stiffs:


    Brandon Lloyd
    Laurent Robinson
    Donald Jones
    Randy Moss
    Austin Collie
    Deion Branch
    Steve Breaston
    Brandon Stokley
    Chad Johnson
    Jabar Gaffney
    Roscoe Parrish (PR)
    Brandon Banks (KR/PR)
    Mike Sims-Walker
    Sammie Stroughter
    Jason Hill
    Brian Robiskie
    Ruvell Martin
    Patrick Turner
    Seyi Ajirotutu
    Greg Camarillo (PR)
    Legedu Naanee
    Mardy Gilyard (KR)
    Adrian Arrington
    Michael Clayton


    And lastly -- for good measure, TO.

      Wow.... that is a pretty bad group. Hoping that momah turns out to be a player. Following Twitter and apparently he had a pretty solid day yesterday?

        I think a low-level or mid-level trade might bring someone better.

          I agree but who?

          Lloyd apparently a locker room cancer. Moss and TO are shot. Chad Johnson is a traveling circus act. He might be ok but I doubt Kelly will bring him in.

          WR looks like its a mess right now. ESP if desean continues his downward trend we've seen lately. Avant cant play outside. Need a 2 desperately.

            Yeah, well what's on their roster is even less impressive. Sometimes, when guys get hurt or behave themselves off the roster you gotta suck it up and over pay for a guy who hasn't signed yet.

            It's Howie Roseman's JOB to find the guy on that list who can help this team. To suggest otherwise is to absolve him of his duties as GM.

            IMO, if Roseman doesn't sign a WR it's no different than dipshit Amaro not trading Chooch and Michael Young for prospects because he didn't like the prospects he was offered. Most of the time beggars are not afforded the luxury of choice and the very best GMs understand this and make the best of the options available to them.

              The Eagles are just stupid in general

                DeSean/Damaris might not be awful, but they would be the tiniest combo in the league.

                  The only one on the list that is mildly intriguing is Laurent Robinson, and I say now way. He stinks. He had one good year in Dallas, but otherwise, he's been pretty bad. I got to watch him a lot for a season, and he was really, REALLY bad.

                    I don't know. Seems to me that Roseman has brought in a lot of talent in the scouting department. If those guys don't like what's on the street more than what's already here, that's okay with me.

                    I think a trade for an existing WR is the better option.

                      A trade isn't a bad idea, but it seems like they rarely happen after training camp starts.

                        Austin Collie is on that list and he signed with San Fran.

                            Right now, teams are at max roster, with 90 per club that's 2880 in camp

                            By September there will only be 1700 - that leaves quite a few to pick from

                              Most likely pick up

                              a player after training camp cuts.....I'm not too worried with a core of talented TEs and more emphasis on a running game I think Jackson, Johnson and Avant can carry the load.

                              Plus Polk and McCoy can also catch, put them in the slot and let Jackson on the outside there could a lot of options.
