Well yes, but that's why we're paying him probably something around 900k-1 million and not 6+ million.

Good risk.

[quote=IrMitchell;998664]My money is on Pashos. When healthy in 2011, he was the 6th best OT in terms of PBE. Trent was 19th last year.. So yeah high praise for Tony.

Anyways again how does a CB depth chart of, Wilson, Crawford, Murphy suffice? Quarterbacks will have us highlighted in 6 different colors on their schedules. We'll get shredded.[/quote]

Well, you also have Minnefield, 1-2 rookies, and a 2nd tier FA. We certainly aren't going to have a defensive backfield that scares qb's, so it will be another season of shoot out games most likely. I expect it's going to be a good thing our offense likely will be scoring 27-33 points per game.

Counting on Minnifield.. That's what it's come down to I guess.

You're right and the truth is I trust our front office to pluck a couple more Richard Crawford's in the draft, but we're playing with fire if these draft picks don't work out.

I haven't even mentioned safety.

Re: Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013
 

Minnifield knee is bad. Kiem had an article in his email about the extent of it. I believe its a 2 torn acls and a microstress fracture surgery. No counting should be done with Minnifield, its only a bonus at this point.

The FO is definately not coutning on Minnefield. A guy coming off 2 ACLs and micro fracture surgery has a lonnnnggg way to get back, and most likely will never be the same. (the micro fracture surgery being one of the biggest detriments to his career)

I posted last night, that when you have a defense ranked so poorly against the pass that we were able to keep who we could afford and filling out the rest with draft picks (remember this draft is deep at CB, S, and T). The thinking being we were 31st aginst the pass last year, we liked what we have we the rest of the team so they are priority number one. We (the FO) will fill out the defensive backfield with rookies and a 2nd tier FA here and there, and we honestly can't be much worse.

It'll be interesting to see if Cary Williams was good because of a good defense or if he good because he's good.

Kenny Phillips is good when healthy.

#Eagles close to signing former #Texans OLB Connor Barwin, per @JasonLaCanfora.

[quote=That Guy;998632]look at the FA list at nfl.com, there's like 6000 CB/DBs out there.

Sean Smith signed with Kansas City.

Re: Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013
 

yeah, and barwin to philly sucks, cause he's undervalued. phillips too. dam iggles.

well, cason and winfield are my short list then i guess. talib would be fine too, but it seems like every cb is getting 5-6m/yr and well, we can't afford that.

The Eagles can sign all the players they like & I still don't see it making a difference. Vick will be done by game 5 & Foles will not fit the scheme. Plus, I don't think Kelly will transfer over to a good NFL coach.

Vick is terrible and foles is bad too. Eagles always get hype but never do anything. I agree about Kelly also.

You know whats amazing about Bennett is that he played great in his contract year!
/sarcasm

I wouldn't of touched Bennett if I were a GM; those kinds of players scare me when they just get good when they're contract is up.

The more free agents seattle brings in, the more losses they'll have.

Re: Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013
 

I agree with you but in Bennett's situation, it is one year deal so it is likely for him to play lights out this year.

That's not a big deal. Incisions always look bad like that. I've had both of my feet completely reconstructed (16 screws, 7 pins sticking out, 3 big incisions on the tops of each foot, all 5 metatarsals cut and screwed back together, joints removed and fused...I'm fine. I can do anything and more than I did before it. Pashos has the best rehab docs in the world compared to me having to learn how to walk on my own.

What kind of surgery did he have? It's really not bad. The bruising is normal. The discoloration is from tape and he obviously just had it unwrapped by the extra texture on his skin. The incision is really straight and well done.

That's nothing...really. Post-op pics are always worse-looking then they really are.


Cool picture actually. If we had a player surgery photo thread, I'd love it. That's not scary at all. When you look down and it's your own foot...sure, that might make you a little lightheaded, but photos are nothing.

Pats resigned him for 5mil, sounds like we had a multi-year deal offered to him, but it wasn't what he was looking for. At 5mil for next year I'd pass anyways.

It's very real. I'd remember hearing awhile back (before this cap penalty was laid on us) that he was willing to restructure if need be because he wanted to retire a Redskin.

I can't imagine the Skins at least not attempting to sign him back. The FA pool for CB's is dwindling and there's no telling what kind of pickens we'll have in the draft.

Its a safe move.

Re: Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013
 

Redskins should have all the bargaining chips now with hall because it seems no one else is interested. I'm sure they are considering bringing him back because now his value might actually be close to his pay.

His pay will be equal to his play. Some people were speculating he would get a couple of million a year? Let's be realistic no one is knocking on his door. Give me Winfield instead.

Why not both? One year deals for each or two years to stretch the cap hit.

Merriweather played pretty well in the short time he wasn't hurt. If he can fight off the injury bug, I think he will be a serviceable stop gap.
