BringBackOrton Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Jesus Christ, their receiving corps is down to a first-round rookie, a receiver they just traded for, and a bunch of guys that I swear I saw working a car wash three months ago. They could have kept Goodwin, and he'd have been the #1 receiver on this squad. Second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flmike Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Will always remember him as a great FSU receiver. Good luck to him and Go Noles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Good. 95% of his value was to help get Sammy to his potential. Zay Jones doesn't need that mentoring......he grew up in an NFL family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4merper4mer Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Who's lying? Beane. He said we weren't tanking and his proof was Boldin. OMFG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Did you watch Thursday? He looked like someone's grandfather. He not only looked slow, he looked almost disinterested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flmike Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Oh man can you imagine what the players must feel like for this **** to go down. I bet morale is at an all time low. Trading TT's best WR and the teams best player. Guess what else you have to build now over the next 5 years. A belief in this GM and coach. I dont think it happens. They have shown how they do business. Umm. The team's best player is Shady. Watkins showed flashes but he doesn't belong in the same conversation yet.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) He retired because he cannot play physically anymore, his speed is totally gone and he looked so slow it made Dareus look fast. What concerns me the most is that our GM and HC signed him because they thought he could play. I'm not sure but don't they have tryouts or at least watch him run route's? If they did we might have the worst talent evaluators in the NFL. Edited August 21, 2017 by Call_Of_Ktulu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobChalmers Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I don't believe that they would have made the Watkins deal if they knew Boldin was going to retire. Could be wrong, but I believe that trade was made partly because they believed that Matthews, Boldin and JOnes would make a solid trio at WR. Now they're down to 1 1/2 receivers. Not good. Boldin should have lived up to his commitment. Actually, I don't think they make the Boldin deal if they knew they were dealing SW. Boldin was a mentor more than a useful player if what we saw Thursday night is any indication. Has anyone seen any training camp reports that talked about AB getting open?

Kmart128 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 No, he wasn't. He was going down the Philly depth chart. He was expendable because they added better players--something our new front office doesn't understand. The fact that the Philadelphia Eagles have some actual NFL wide receivers now is just so ... refreshing ... after watching a painfully disastrous wide receiving corps each and every week last year. Now that the Eagles officially have both Alshon Jeffery (story here) and Torrey Smith (story here) in the fold, let’s take a look at Philadelphia’s 2017 depth chart at wide receiver. PROJECTED 2017 EAGLES WIDE RECEIVER DEPTH CHART 1 - ALSHON JEFFERY! 2 - Torrey Smith 3 - Jordan Matthews 4 - (Rookie?) 5 - Nelson Agholor https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2017/3/9/14875690/philadelphia-eagles-2017-wide-receiver-depth-chart-alshon-jeffery-torrey-smith-jordan-matthews-nfl Yeah he is 3rd on depth chart because he is a slot reciever... but just because you are a slot reciever and 3rd on depth chart doesnt mean you are not the primary reciever. Jarvis Landry is #3 slot reciever but he is actually their #1. Julian Endelman is same way for Patriots. Matthews was probably their #2 overall reciever behind Alshon but was #1 bedorw his arrival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 It's still much better than it was last year and our offense was fine last year. You've got to be kidding. I love Jones but let's wait and see on him. Matthews was in no way better than Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
