This certainly doesn't seem like new information, but ProFootballTalk.com put a post up today reminding everyone that Lito Sheppard is still likely to be traded in the near future. There is speculation that the reason the deal hasn't gone down yet is because the Eagles want more for Lito than teams are offering. Shutdown corner Deangelo Hall was traded from the Falcons to the Raiders, and the Falcons received a 2nd and 5th round draft picks. The Eagles would likely use that compensation as a starting point for Lito. We can likely forget about getting an impact receiver in any trade involving Lito.

Dear Mr. M: McNabb is Back in Black
Dear Mr. M,
Its yours truly, here to talk about how my QB Donovan McNabb is underrated. And this is why; Tom Brady has an all pro all around amazing O Line. Last time I checked 14 seconds to throw the ball without moving is pretty convenient. You make the argument that the Patriots have crappy receivers, granted that is true. Kevin Faulk is an amzing pass...

If EAGLES are looking to draft a QB..........
I'd go for JOE FLACCO. He's big, strong, smart, and accurate. No matter what stats and video say KEVIN KOLB is garbage, and never should've been drafted to Philly.
A closer look at DeSean and other return specialists
"As the NFL draft approaches, DeSean Jackson is one of its more interesting prospects. Though supermodel-thin (169 pounds) and therefore considered limited as a wideout in terms of absorbing punishment over the middle, Jackson is appealing because of his speed (4.39 40-yard dash at the Combine) and magical return qualities."

All Philadelphia Sport's WR Draft Board
After thinking about the big picture for a while. The Eagles need to draft WR 1st. Let's hit the home run. We don't need an OT NOW. Take an OT in the later rounds. There aren't positions we need to address on D. The D is there. I say we go for James Hardy. Limas Sweed is a close second. If the Eagles pass on a WR in round 1. They have lots of guys to choose...

Sheppard deal expected to happen before draft
Trade talks concerning Sheppard figure to pick up this week at the owners' meetings, which take place today through Wednesday in West Palm Beach, Fla.
I am SURE they have a plan,,and it is going to start to unfold ,,this week.
and the "handwriting" is on the wall .... they gave BIG $$ to Samuel to play him.
Lito...fell out-of-favor with Reid/Eagles for whatever reason ... he is good as gone.
So ,,, the meetings are this week...we will hear soon.
According to the draft-chart ...
Lito is worth pick #31,so anyone looking to draft a CB,will probably get him. (in a trade with a pick)
1. NE Pats-2. Bills-3.Cardinals-4.Cowboys-5.Packers
So ..who we dealing with ?
