Re: NFL Free Agents Signings Thread

At least Decker will be well paid for his big drop in production. Manning to Geno? What's he thinking? The Jets were his best option?

Im not worried about the eagles. Got a years worth of film on Chip, Foles, etc. Foles wont have a repeat of that 5-6 game run. Plus their overall defense was worse than ours, they were just able to score enough.

Im sure the talking heads will talk them up this coming season; last time they did that their coach got fired.

There's no way Foles is as good as his stats last season. You're right about Kelly's offense too, everyone will have it figured out and eventually, if he continues to try to run that pace, it's going to wear down older players.

yea i don't buy the eagles either, I do like foles dating back to his days at AZ .. but .. I don't buy the level of great people think they are... I'm just from right outside philly and deal with EAGLES SHIT all the time, and the fans, my god the friggin fans, most un-knowledgable collection of shit-faced weasels I have ever seen.

Re: NFL Free Agents Signings Thread

The Sproles trade broke four NFL no-nos:

-Acquiring a 30+ year old RB
-Trading draft picks for any RB (hi, Tim Hightower!)
-Paying for a contract too large for the Saints to carry
-Paying for performance that can be found for less

Found for less? It's not common to find an Alfred Morris in the 5th-7th round.


I hate that the Eagles got him, but they got a steal. Also, his age is not an issue as much since he's not an every-down back and has never been.

It also helps McCoy stay healthy, he got beat up badly last season with his workload and Chip Kelly's pace.

I think we've already established you're not good at this, but I really don't think the Eagles just acquired Alfred Morris in his prime. They got 31 year old Darren Sproles.

Re: NFL Free Agents Signings Thread

Bears 1 year deal with Dominick Hixon.



Ravens are favorites to land Steve Smith after being cut.

He apparently has a list of landing spots including Baltimore, New England, Dallas, San Diego and Tampa Bay. That was at least his list if trade partners before he was cut.

Re: NFL Free Agents Signings Thread

Browns outbid the Bengals for Andrew Hawkins. 4 years, $13.6 mill.


Makes our Roberts deal look great. That's pricey for a #3/4 WR.

Kyle Shanahan will probably have him throwing passes like he did with Brandon Banks.

A source tells ProFootballTalk that free agent CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie turned down a six-year, $54 million offer from the Broncos.
