Fans may have jumped off the Eli bandwagon quicker than they got on, but I still say let's go without him and see how well we do!
Anyway, reports are the offense HAS been more up tempo and attacking, with Eli claiming it's more like the Packers than Gilbride's. I am excited, I can't lie. Also this is relevant:
LOLLOLLOL




Unfortunately, with him on the redskins we still have to deal with him twice a year. Hopefully RGIII will continue regression and it wont be a huge issue.

Agreed with the Eli's ankle. All reports say he should be ready to go for mini-camps and all that training crap (may miss an OTA or two), so I'm not too worried, just confused. Continuing Gmen news...Wilson's recovery is reportedly going well...no more pain and all that. Still needs medical clearance to play but signs are looking good. Ditto shame aboutu Hill...is a good player, but the giants did add a lot to their secondary this offseason so...


And @ the meme. Thank god we can throw that book away!

^ I just came here to respond to that news!

Not sure where the eagles are going with that. The combo of D-Jax and Sproles would have been beastly, especialy if Cooper keeps it up and Maclin returns near 100%. But hey...I'm glad the giants don't have to defend that twice a year now!

So the Eagles released one the better WRs in the league and probably the third best offensive player on their team. There's that for today.

Hmmm
Well, I said in theory I'd like Incognito if he weren't so toxic. 
IDK if Jerry is any good but it came out he was at least partially involved in that whole Miami mess, so we're getting a less toxic player, but probably less skilled as wellLOLCry Well, he can't be worse than our previous line...


D Jax would indeed help, and I can't agree more on him being out of Philly. Cmon Jets do something good for once! (Don't bank on it)

Unless they can acquiring D-jax. That would certainly bolster more of an offensive presence.

Again, until Vick gets injured.

And either way, most reports are now talking about when D-jax gets out of Philly instead of if. Which I like.

I'm really happy with the way the Ravens and Ozzie are handling things since free agency started.

Let's look at what they did with a little over 22 million under the cap:

- Restructured Terrell Suggs (OLB/DE) contract
- Resigned Dennis Pitta (TE) to a 5 year deal
- Resigned Eugene Monroe (LT) to a 5 year deal (for well under what he was expecting the market to offer,thank God we didn't put the franchise tag on him)
- Resigned Jacoby Jones (WR/PR,KR) to a 4 year deal
- Signed Steve Smith (WR) for 3 years (I think he will be a good fit here)
- Resigned Daryl Smith (LB) for 4 years (I'm REALLY happy with this one)
- Resigned Jeremy Miles and signed Darian Stewart (S),both from the Rams.Not bad but they will probably contribute more to special teams,especially Miles.We need more depth here.

Needs I think that still need to be addressed are center,another tight end and safety.I would love to see Blount here,he would add more depth to our running game.I also worry about the day Flacco gets hurt and we need to rely on our backup because Tyrod Taylor is meh.

For the 6 weeks before his inevitable injury.


And yes...Schaub has been traded to the Raiders for a 6th round pick. His career really went the wrong way fast.

Wow thet Jets get Michael Vick. Seems like a long time since they've had a good quarterback no ? They released Sanchez and it will be interesting to see if anyone picks him up as a backup.
Rumours are that Schaub is being traded to the Raiders, and Houton did just sign Fitzpatrick who the Titans released recently.

Reports are surfacing that the eagels want to trade Jackson?! I hope it happens.

I can see that, but can't deny Sproles is a little beast, and just another speed demon/weapon to deal with now!

That's fair, but I like the upside of Holliday.

I like the Sproles move and it came at the right price, but I'm not really buying that he's going to be some hugely significant offensive weapon for us.

Holliday has some interesting fumbling problems. He can be a double edged sword. Playing with fire with him and DRC actually. Though I think the DRC move will work out just fine.

It is very unlike them, but we all know why: Jerry Reese is on the hot seat. 

Least it hasn't been on only flashy players or wasteful, some damn great signings and I'm sure he'll keep up his fairly good draft record. 

Sproles to Philly though certainly didn't make me happy though. 

Edit: Oh damn, I had no idea about Holliday! That is exciting, we never have a returner. Even Hixon back in 07 was just decent, I can't recall ever having an exciting return guy.
