Losing those scholarships is killer! NCAA put the screws to JB on this, they took away just a few less games than Paterno loss...really?
-
The only one that I still don't like is the Watkins trade...man, would love to have our #1 this year
-
I like the trade..but the one thing that bothers, or maybe I should say, puzzles me: Does Chip Kelly really think that McCoy is done, or useless to him? Love Kiko, don't get me wrong, but I would think the Eagles could have packaged McCoy, and say, some draft picks to move up closer to getting Mariota.
Can't keep up with all the moving parts in these things any more...but is there some financial advantage to the Eagles for trading McCoy now, as opposed to later in the off-season? Is he due some big pay-out if he is still on their roster once FA starts? If so, I can understand it a little, but otherwise, if I was an Eagles fan, I would be very leery of Chip Kelly and all the power he has obtained in Philly.
Kelly seems out to prove that the Oregon Ducks can beat any team in the NFL. I wouldn't be shocked if he slides from being a "genius" to a buffoon in the next two years... he is dumping, and continues to dump, a lot of proven NFL talent, and getting little in return for it.
From what I understand this is more about $$ and the cap hit that Mccoy had on his contract. He was unwilling to restructure that. Also, add in that he was not into how the chipper practiced the team...there was some friction with the coach I am told.

Text from my brother (FO for another team) -- "Chip is nuts. There are a lot of LBs better than Alonso in the draft. There are NO RBs like McCoy in the draft."
Interesting, and holds a little more weight coming from someone in the industry
-
You get arguably the top RB in the game (top 3 at worst), in his prime, locked in for three years. He fits Roman's scheme, can do everything (block, catch, run). In exchange you give up a very popular player, but a guy who's shredded the same knee twice and who didn't want to be here.
It's a win.
Fully agree with this, particularly if the revelation about Kiko not wanting to be here is true.
-
This is precisely why we need to somehow and someway find a franchise QB, it takes the sting out of losing players that will be lost to other teams because you can't sign them all. Also, a franchise QB raises the play of everyone around them...it would allow us to pick up some undrafted FA and plug them into major roles on the roster (at least offensively).

Poor Geno, and we sacked Alex Smith 6 times in that game? Still bitter about that loss!
-
Oh boy, again?
-
If this were going to happen with the Titans I would see something like:
Foles
2015 1st round, 2nd round, 4th round
2016 1st round, 2nd round, 5th round
maybe even a 2017 pick as well. It is going to be more than the RG3 trade with the Rams a few years back
-
Mariota is 6th round talent. Great kid. Good story. Great college QB. He is not Jason White material but he will be awful in the NFL.
You couldn't be further off, MM will be a top five pick and will do very well in the NFL
-
Can't wait for Unbroken, what an unreal story. If you get the chance, read the book before you see the movie. It is amazing
-
apparently we need to install pools that overweight woman can swim in during the game...in their jeans, then our "gameday experience" will be up to his standards
-
Fitzy has given them a couple of good games, fools gold...got them thinking that he's not so bad. He gave up three sacks and three picks to the Giants who are not as good as the Bills on D. We should be able to fluster him.
Having said that, Watt is awesome and they will get after EJ. He's got to show some mental fortitude to read a defense and know where the pressure is coming as well as hit some open WR or we are toast again
-
I am reserving judgement till I see what the offense looks like opening day.
Agree fully, hoping to not be let down yet again though
-
Hi!
What are you talking about?
This gave me a chuckle
-
Just made the annual call. Didn't haggle or B word about anything, just asked if they could help me out. got ST for free, new genie hardware for free, $100 Visa card, credits for a few bills. Had to re-up for a year but no biggie.
-
I love it. Let's be nasty for once.
Yes
-
I hope that they don't trade CJ, in fact I hope they re-sign him to a deal after this season. But if they do trade it better be for a 1st round pick. If the Browns can get a #1 for Trent Freakin Richardson then you better not settle for less than that.
-
I have the same reaction to all these threads, EJ has to show up or it won't matter. Gotta get them the ball first
-
Cocaine - no thanks
And he did quit on his team - no thanks
Somebody will take him early and will be massively disappointed - no thanks
If you watched the ducks this year, especially the first half of the season, colt did not impress, lots of drops
-
Ennis and Grant are gone fellas. No way they are turning up on mocks now and they end up staying. Ennis surprises me, his rise in the ranks this year has been really amazing to watch. IMO, he should stay one more and be a top 5 pick. But that never seems to happen these days.
-
You don't really have to make a choice between the two. Our beloved Bills will continue to creatively find ways to rip your heart out!
-
#1 in something, just wish it was on the field not in the stands
-
You guys see MCW's debut with the Sixers? He almost had a quadruple double against the Heat. Really hoping he turns into an NBA star.
Did I read correctly that he hit 4-6 from three? If so, MCW must have put some practice time on his jumper. I don't remember him hitting 4 in a game while he was at the Cuse
Plausible trade for #1 overall?

I cannot understand how Bradford is so over-valued. He hasn't proven to be a winner and is constantly injured
