  • everyone complains for years that lb was under-valued

    If Alonso's healthy, I like the trade. I loved McCoy, but he's replaceable.

    Cox, Thornton, Logan, Allen, Curry, Barwin, Kendricks and Alonso. You win up front, and they currently have a good amount of good to great players up front. Add another solid OLB, fix the secondary and...hmmm

      The pieces are certainly coming into focus, plus a Shit ton of $. If chip can just improve the offense to be more efficient, they will be a tough team.

          Nice thought but this was a pure salary dump. Alonso was a throw-in Duck. Did he play last season?

              He was hurt last year, he had 159 tackles and won the defensive rookie of the year award the season before that.

              Edit to add: Yeah, ultimately it's a salary dump, but Alonso has the potential to be very very good. Rex looked at how Buffalo's D played last year without him and figured he could use him to bolster their O. It was a "dump" for both.

                Out with acl last year. Acl in 2010 and hip surgery in 2012 I think.

                    My buddy who's a Bills fan actually doesn't like the trade. Says Kiko (if healthy, obviously) is a stud. We'll see.

                      Hip injury was last offseason, had that injury before the knee. I wonder if favoring the knee due to the hip caused the ACL?

                      Also, the first ACL was in the other leg. Has torn one in both knees. Perfect fit for the Eagles haha.

                        Alonso could be a steal but wish he wasn't from Oregon. That part of Chip's strategy hasn't really paid off.

                          1. Alonso was 2nd in the NFL Defensive Rookie of the year in 2013
                          2. Because his injury was non football related he actually has 3 cheap years left on his rookie contract not 2.

                            Joelo special...I hope it works out...but eagles history points the other way.

                              He won the PFWA DROTY and was second in AP DROTY so, either way, a productive season.
