NO! this cannot happen. We need reggie brown. I say we go after larry fitz. or chad johnson. I just dont like roy.I dont think he is that good.

Yeah what would the Eagles do without those 720 yards a year that Reggie Brown gives them every year?

williams had 8something and wow 5 td and he's a whole one inch taller no deal

LOL Harvey Bars, I agree 100% what will the Eagles do without those super numbers every year, Its about time Mcnabb gets a big target and maybe people will stop blaming him all the time.

Yea man let's get Roy for Mcnabb and watch as Mcnabb returns to pro bowl form!!!!!

Are you serious? Go look at his stats and compare them to Brown.

Reggie Brown will never get anywhere near Williams's numbers from last year.

I think it would be great for both teams Detriot would get a good young receiver plus a pretty good draft pick for a guy in the last year of his contract.Philly would get a #1 receiver they need and with his size would help out in the red zone.Plus Reggie wouldn't have to be the guy in Detroit because they have 3 other really good to great receivers already.

You don't much football do you???? Roy Williams is a STUD, and to STEAL HIM for REGGIE BROWN and a 4th Rounder???? It's a NO BRAINER!!!!!!!!!! It's ok, just don't make anymore comments unless you know what your talking about!!!!!!!!

What I'm saying idiot is that this would be a great trade for both teams,Reggie is not a bad receiver but he is not a #1or a#2 receiver either but he won't have to be in Detriot because they have a#1 receiver already and also have 2 really good other receivers.The Eagles would make out because Roy Williams would be the # 1 receiver we need to compete in the best division in the NFL the NFC east.

u got that right bro. he is a STUD, and that would be stealing him.. nothing against reggie but , hey man hes better than u hands down.. if roy williams comes to the birds its over for everyone.. make the trade.. get rid of mahe too.. they can take him as well.. hate reno..

I agree! I already said that uno uno doesn't sound as good as oucho cinco!

I ALSO AGREE ITS A GOOD CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!! TOY WOULD BE GOOD FOE THE TEAM

Eagles NEED JAVON WALKER

Boooo! He's the last resort.

Reggie Brown and a draft pick that won't play in the next 2 years or at all for Roy Williams? Yeah, I do it.

I think it would be great. Roy Williams is alot better than Reggie Brown. Brown is too inconsistent. I can't believe the Lions would be dumb enough to do it!!!

I agree about Brown being inconsistent but is Williams the number oneWR we're looking for? I really don't know to much about him, or are you guys suggesting getting him and still going after one of the big name WRs?

I know he's good just by watching highlights the last 3 or 4 years. Last year he made the pro bowl. He's been very productive since he's been in the league since 2004. I remember when the Eagles played the Lions this year, our defensive players mentioned his name and how important he is to the Lions offense. One thing for sure... he is better than anything we have now. Which means him and Curtis would give us better competition at wide receiver, especially in the division. We still need TE help, a solid DE to help Cole and help in the secondary. But Roy W. would be a nice piece to the puzzle!!!

Thanks for the info Geeterdone that sounds pretty good! Maybe picking up Algee Crumpler for a TE he is a monster in the red zone! I think Jared Allen will be franchised so I don't see him coming to philly and what about ken hamlin for help in the secondary?

Your Welcome. If the Eagles, by the grace of god, signed Jared Allen??? I'd have a canary

NO WAY THIS IS TRUE

BUT I HOPE IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If it is true the eagles should do it i mean curtis played well with Reggie imagine what him and roy could do together. Roy isnt as good as chad or fitz i agree but he does have good size and speed the eagles need a big reciever to throw to when mcnabb is scrambling or in trouble. Chad would be ideal but i think the eagles would have to give up a first rounder n more to get him and fitz likes it in arizona

If you think T.O. drops alot passes Roy Drops alot more

he better not drop any... he'll get booed outta town!!!

He wont drop any more than Reggie drops!

yo I would be happy as hell of this happened

Me too! doesn't come with the drama of Chad or the price tag of Fitz.

Give us a source site or I call this a wishful thinking by an eagle fan.

yea does this guy truth give solid info?

YES TRUTH DOES..........

However, Williams and the management aren't exactly getting along, and there has been a lot of speculation about his future with Detriot, especially after Calvin Johnson was brought in. It is possible, but not probable.

Reggie just never developed into the receiver we thought he'd be. Maybe a change in scenery will serve him well. Maybe this is a move for salary reasons. I DO KNOW that we over-paid Reggie Brown. The money we paid him should have went to TO. But thats another can of worms!!! Maybe the Lions want to move RW's salary? Maybe RW is due for a raise sooner or later. Salaries could be the motive behind this - in one way or another.

dude your an idiot, Roy is one of the top 10 in the league and he's young and has a lot to offer us. i like reggie brown but he's not great. chad j is the best but he'll never play here with his crap attitude. Fitz is great but comes with a huge pricetag. Roy is the best choice 4 us....I;m very excited about this

Hmmm. So I'd be trading a top 10 WR for a guy who is not in the top 50 and a meaningless 4th round pick? Even I'm not stupid enough to do that. Or am I?

ill believe this when i see it. i cannot imagine the eagles parting ways from their first round pick this early, hell i could be wrong. i do believe however that larry fitz is way out of the question due to the fact of how much money it will take. i have a feeling though that something big is going to happen this off season, more so than previous years.

I heard the eagles were trying to pull Todd Heap out of Baltimore?? Anybody else here that?

No but that sound's like a Reid move HEAP IS A MORMON 2

havent heard it but would love it

this would be a huge step forward for the eagles.mcnabb,westbrook,williams,curtis and resign l.j. smith i'm thinking visions of 2004 all over again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jeremy shockey 2 the eagles

roy williams for brown allday

Marinelli was contacted by the Eagles after it was told to some of the Eagles players they are shopping for a decent offer during the Superbowl. He's already told the media about trade options so it's common knowledge and that's what the Eagles are putting on the table.
Randy Moss is THE prototype #1 reciever and he was traded for ONLY a 4th round pick.
Seems solid for both team

yeah it may be common knowledge but how do you know were offering Reggie Brown & a 4th??? You have proof?? How do you know????

Moss wasn't viewed as a prototypical WR when he was traded for a 4th round pick. T.O. was traded a few years back for a second rounder as was Justin McCareins.

UnTruth4sho,

This is something you made up. You're lying. You may want this to happen. However, it's pathetic to post such a ridulous article. Thanks for wasting everyone's time.

At least we now know that all of you future posts will be false as well. Come back to reality, UnTruth4sho!!!

Yeah, but Randy Moss didn't try for 3 years and ran over a cop with his car. I know it's fun to make up trades that greatly benefit your team without haivng to give up any talent, but that not how it works in the real world. It does work like that in the MLB though, welcome aboard Johan.

and in the nba (aka pau gasol to the lakers for nothing)

He never ran over a cop thats a lie, it was in traffic and the officer was signaling for Moss to stop, he faked a move forward never making contact. He ended up getting some charge but to say he ran over a cop is misguided and non-factual.

I'm A lions fan, and I'm trying to figure out why the lions would do this. Roy is the closest we have to veteran leadership after Kitna, theres no way we would do this. 4th round? No way. I know it seems we have drafted 15 WR's in the last 4 years but we would not trade our best pick in the last 8 years , I don't care what the rumors say. Williams is going no where, and if he does? Its for solid defensive help, not another WR with less talent and a 4th round pick we will just cut anyway, quick, name the last successful 4th round pick the Lions have had? Ok.
