Sam can be a good QB in this league, I will always stand by this

I'm hoping DGB turns out to be the real deal. It'll make me feel a little better about giving DJack up for nothing

Brings a tear to my eye, how long has it been since we've seen a successful fade route?

 

[xxpizzo]

Defense will be keeping us in a lot of games this year been great to watch so far this preseason

Its been YEARS, probably even before DJax.

 

[mrswagtastic]

Randle is done. He ain't making this squad

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

With the way Huff has played tonight, and the lack of any PT for Randle, Huff will be WR4.

Randle will be cut.

Hes a perfect bus driver but he'll never be a QB who will carry his team which is fine. Denver is mad stupid IMO he would've been the perfect fit to take over that team and get them right back to where they want to be. With Thomas/Sanders Sam would've been able to put in serious work with that squad.

I think Sam will have a real decent season again despite the mediocre talent around him on offense.

No one since TO

 

[IATT]

Last fade route was to kkkooper

 

[IATT]

Huff is making this team because of tonight

Randle RIP

At this point I'm looking at our WRs based on what they can offer on special teams.. Agholor was good on returns at USC.. I throw him and huff back there on kickoffs



We just need 1 to stretch the field

Since I expect our offense to be Jordan, TEs and RBs.. Hopefully dgb gives us a legit WR threat, since I see Jordan as a glorified TE..

Our offense can still be really really effective with the above.. But we need someone that could at least force the safety deep or make them at least think about someone down the field

I'm just very high on DGB, he had top 10 pick talent and hope he can get it straight this year

 

[IATT]

Definitely has the talent.. But we'll see if he has finally calmed down and gets his act together

 

[District of Columbia]

Still sick we passed on Allen Robinson for JMatt

 

[IATT]

Hell could have had both..

That's why you never go into the draft with a fixed definitive plan.. Just like a fantasy draft, you don't go in with a set mindset that you are going to a specific position and have to address a specific need.. Take the highest rated guy and develop and you can make moves later on

We should have moved back again instead of taking Marcus smith.. And could have had both Matthews and Robinson, we did have the need at WR even with desean and/or maclin.. And kkkooper was always going be limited

eagles '02 draft is a perfect example of the above.. Just take the best guys and you can develop em and have cheaper labour.. And/or you can move em for picks later on

 

[mrswagtastic]

Randle and Givens both gone. We're going to be really young at WR but I like it, Turner is probably making the squad

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

Here are the roster cuts that were made today via 24/7 Sports.

LS John DePalma

CB Randall Evans

OL Andrew Gardner

WR Chris Givens

DT Mike Martin

S Nick Perry

WR Rueben Randle

CB Denzel Rice

Wentz a possibility for Thursday.

"He worked out tonight again and went through a full workout," Pederson said. "He's in a position to possibly play next week. He's still a little bit sore, but we'll monitor that. I don't want to jeopardize him by any stretch of the imagination, but if he's ready to go, he'll play next Thursday."

 

[stillin729]

I'm wondering how Jacorey Shepard has looked, he was last years camp talk before the injury

 

[IATT]

^ jaylen has been the talk this lap after moving to safety.. Thought we might trade Rowe, but he has come on


Seeing some talk of us rolling with 4 WRs and maybe leaving a roster spot available depending on cuts..

Finally getting to watch the 3rd preseason game..

This dude agholor causing that INT

 

[IATT]

Love what they are doing with huff and burton

Agholor should be glued to the bench..

Used DGB and Matthews as the outside guys.. And continue to do crossing/movement stuff with sproles, huff and burton.. And moving around ertz to traditional TE spots

Full game uploaded on YouTube if anyone hasn't seen it:

 

[k3stacks]

Is JMatt going to be running more then 1 route?

 

[IATT]

Is JMatt going to be running more then 1 route?

Gotta assume, since that looks like where they are going use the shifty guys on that type route (huff and trey).. Could also see sproles used there too, but they seem to be using him more on the outside when they motion him out of the backfield

But makes sense, use your size guys on the outside.. Ertz, DGB and Matthews.. And those 3 guys can block on the edges for the above guys and backs on running plays

And celek is a glorified lineman

 

[IATT]

BG guys brought up a good point about potentially trading wisniewski to the colts with their center going down.. Considering his salary


Also what is the latest on lane's suspension?





EDIT:
Kinda agree with this.. Think we try to move wisniewski for reason stated above (continue trying to move hart.. And possibly agholor too.. And saw rumors of Rowe early and Kendricks recently).. We'll see if Turner makes it:

And also whatever happens with lane's suspension could impact number of oline carried (9 or 10)
