Demarco Murray in Philly tomorrow

I like the nickname, but I think Matthews brings more to the table as a pass catcher. Polk carved out a nice goal line niche, but that they won't need that anymore if they sign Murray. They could probably trade him ala Bryce Brown.

Maybe. Mathews hurt a lot over the years. Just something about Polk I like. He's tough and runs hard every play. No fuckin around with that guy. Gets it and goes. That's valuable.

[BigSlizz]

You like the same thing I do.

has done well with the opportunities he's had.

If he doesn't get injured in camp or the preseason they could easily keep 4 backs.

Jou crazy

[Eagle Road]

That gives us one back too many and I kind of wanna keep Polk around.

Can we make Mathews fail his physical?

I suppose you could wait for him at the airport and when he gets to the pisser do a Tonya Harding on him?

I like Polk too and would prefer him to Matthews.

I thought I saw something on twitter this morning that indicated that Matthews' deal wasn't technically official. I don't know, maybe Chip can Gore him.

I looked on the Eagles website on their roster page--everyone they've signed or traded for since Tuesday is there--except Matthews. They may be waiting to see if they can sign Murray before making it official.

Polk was an undrafted free agent but same / same.

Ryan Mathews hasn't signed his contract.

I kind of agree with Ells on this, it's bad business if they reached a deal. And they could lose Mathews and Murray if they play this wrong. Fiasco.

Reports are saying chip wants both...bizarre off-season

If that's real, this is insane. Murray and Mathews for $1.5m less than McCoy. Yeah, I'm good with that.
