Eagles Free Agency Round Up: What about OT Jordan Gross?

Found February 12, 2009 on All Philadelphia Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Anquan Boldin,  Jordan Gross,  T.J. Houshmandzadeh,  Julius Peppers,  Jon Runyan
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles,  Arizona Cardinals,  Carolina Panthers,  Cincinnati Bengals

Eagles fans are focusing on T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Anquan Boldin (not an UFA, but they can try and trade for him), and Julius Peppers. Although I would be thrilled to have any of them, with both Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan entering free agency, I wouldn't be surprised if Pro Bowl Carolina OT Jordan Gross is the #1 priority on the Eagles offseason list. Read more about Jordan Gross here...

  • yea i said a while ago gross is clearly the best choice w/ haynesworth next. but gross will likely resign and i doubt the titans will just let haynesworth go

  • Even though Haynesworth is a solid player, we don't need him. We have two 1st rounders on that D-Line and 2nd rounder Laws. Bunkley had a tremendous season and Patterson was solid too.

  • well the thing is he would be the 2nd best free agent for us. he would help w/ the run and pass rush more then peppers, and is clearly a better player then housh is at his position. plus most the good players wont hit the market. i feel gross wont hit the market. he would solve a lot of problems if we could get him, but since not we might as well go for housh since hes a guy who is likely to hit the market and help us

Arizona Cardinals News: Update on All Things Anquan Boldin Related

Via Full of Sports  |  February 12, 2009
I think it's fair to say that Anquan Boldin and his spat with the Arizona Cardinals management is going to be a focal point this off season. Some of the stuff is border line disturbing and some of the outlandish trade suggestions are almost laughable b...

Cincinnati not looking to franchise Houshmandzadeh

Via NFL News & Rumors  |  February 12, 2009
According to the Dayton Daily News, Bengals WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh is not a likely candidate to receive the team’s franchise designation this off-season. The Bengals would have to buck up close to $10 million if they wanted to lock him down, and it could backfire on them as Housh made it pretty ...

Bengals Likley Won’t Tag WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh

It’s getting closer to the start of free agency, and it looks as if the Bengals best wide out - T.J. Houshmandzadeh is going to bail on the team and head for a big payday and probably more wins. Today’s Dayton Daily News says that the team probably won’t tag T.J., making it even [...]

Eagles Status

March 03, 2009
I am an Eagles fan and I always will be.  Yes, the Eagles have not made popular moves but we are in better standing then most people make you believe.  Our line is solidified without Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan.  On the right side we have the Andrews brothers, center Jamal jackson, Max Jean Giles at lg and Todd Herremans at left tackle.  We are going to be fine on the line if not...

Is Offensive Line Really a Need?

Via Inside the Iggles  |  March 13, 2009
Most (myself included) feel the Eagles will target the O-line early in the April draft. If not the first round, probably the 2nd or 3rd. It makes sense considering Tra Thomas is gone, and Jon Runyan likely won’t be re-signed. Stacy Andrews is in the fold, but is his addition enough? Let’s take a look at [...]

The NFL Offseason Is Here, That Means Non Stop Drew Rosenhaus

Via No Guts, No Glory  |  February 12, 2009
The Super Bowl champion has been crowned and the Pro Bowl is in the books so now Drew Rosenhaus is beginning his yearly attempt of high jacking every sports media outlet for the next couple of months. His first move? He has deemed Plaxico Burress, Chad Johnson, and Anquan Boldin as trade-able. He even went so far as to send an email to every team in the league to announce the new development.

With that though, there has been nothing said about Terrell [...]
