I guess this means we're keeping him all season. Or the Eagles are trying to get more for him. Or the story was planted by Rosenhous or the FO tu up Lito's value. Ok, so I guess I don't know what this means.

	any hunch who that team was, who made offer? I realize it's shooting at the stars trying to guess...your second point is maybe more accurate, the Eagles FO looking for more...hmmmm, want this dude bad!...I'm still confused on here with Eagles YB'ers wanting Lito or not...seems mixed

	Why trade him? Were not getting any impact player for him, so why take away a great player from our team for future draft picks when he can help us this year? Hes gonna play his tail off to get a new contract with a new team so it would be absolutely pointless to trade him for anything less than a package deal that includes an impact player that can help the Eagles this year. Lito has no choice, and zero leverage. If he wants to play hardball and dog it, than theyll sit him and hes hurting himself in the long run. I love it how Floria suggests we should take the equivalent of what they traded Foxworth for. Great comparison. Florio is such an idiot.

	spot on! the rumopr was that the eagles were offered a 4th round pick for lito... a 4th rounder in 09' does the birds no good in 08' so Rosenhaus can pound said... Lito will see the field this year, and when he does he will play his tail off, in hopes for a more lucrative contract next year....

	Look at it this way...if we have to pick up another CB, our best options are deltha oneal and william james. I'll pass

	the eagles are better off just rejecting these offers till at least the end of the season then they can deal him. But for now lets keep him. We have great players at the corner position we need these guys to stop T.O., crayton, burress, toomer, deven thomas, moss

	I'm going with the Drew "planted the story theory". It is something that good for nother bastard would do!

	well lets just hope we cash in if we trade him...if not then lets hope he shuts the hell up and tries to stay healthy all year to earn more money or up his value to be traded next year

	Keep Lito, Let him have a monster year, not get hurt, and prove to everybody that he is one of the best at his position then the Eagles should get more for him next year. If he gets hurt, then he has to shut up and still play with the Eagles
