Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins

What is up with Springs? My tolerance for his "injuries" is growing very thin. I can say the same for Smoot, even though he's not out right now.

He's old. I'm sure this is his last year. But if he can get healthy and play in the big games towards the stetch then I'm happy. If he gives what he can before he retires you won't see me complaining.

Why are you so certain that this is his last year? He's a probowler and has been our best corner for the last 4 years. He's a little old, but he's probably one of the best conditioned athletes on our team. Players don't chose to be injured, it's just a part of the game. Springs will bounce back and have a great year.

Because he almost didn't play this year. He was on the fence about retiring. I think he's done after this year. He has a lot going on with his family and he's drained.

Bullseye. Add to that an $ 8.4M cap number and a guy who probably won't renegotiate, this is his last year here.

Springs will play as long as his body will hold up. But will the organization pay him the amount he's making for around 11-13 games a year? He needs to show that he can play a good amount of games and right now he's already missed two. When he's on the field he's our best corner.
