i'd be surprised, considering he had all of 22 catches as a number 3 last year and generally looked somewhere between dreadful and terrible... plus all the names and ego trippin...

plus that was 22 catches with mcnabb, who will throw to the open guy and does pass it around a lot.

NFL.com is reporting Gilbert Brown has gotten fit again and shaved off a few pounds. THink he might be worth looking at? I know DE is more of a 'worry' for us than DT, but if he's back to his best.....

Naw, I think the staff is pretty much set on the DL we have. The only way I see them adding someone new is if we get hit with a couple injuries or this person would bring immediate impact to the team without breaking the bank.

I honestly don't see them adding a "Gilbert Brown". I think the Dline has good chemistry right now and their building on last year. As bad as they wanted Courtney Brown, at some point Snyder backed off and let him go to Denver. I think our front office is starting to get smarter about pursuing so called "washed up" players and paying them an awful lot of money. Three years ago a guy like this could have landed a big deal with the Skins but those days are over now, IMO.

Pluse we have good depth at the DT position. Joe Salave'a and C.Griff are beasts in the middle, barring injury Griffin will be a pro-bowler this year. Noble and Ryan B. are back-ups, and there's still a name I'm missing. But I think we are set there.

I hope he ends up in Arena football or something.

The guy is a bigtime loser as well as a huge bust.

Hugh is good, but aren't BOTH his legs totally shot?

I remember the eagles only put him in on 3rd downs and he played decently, but was pretty gimped up all year... If that's the case, i don't think we could trust him in run support and he's not an everydown player, so i'd have to pass...

Well he's Mike Tice's problem

Seriously though, I hope the guy can revive his career and more importantly his life

Re: Any last minute free agent pickups?

its weird how he can drink away up to ten of millions of dollars... he really has some talent, its a shame he can't control himself though.
