PLAYERS: Andy Reid
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles
Free agent talk in December?  Yes, that’s what the 2012 version of the Philadelphia Eagles has led us to.  Once the dust settles at the Nova Care Complex after this team gets blown up in January, it won’t be long until the annual free agent shopping extravaganza opens up in March. There’s a saying that most coaches like to be the ones to buy the groceries since they’re the ones who have to do the cooking.  Therefore, without knowing who the head coach will be, it’s hard at this point to try and identify what might be on his grocery list. Luckily, I don’t think the Eagles’ cupboards are as bare as everyone may think. The Eagles have some holes to fill, but there is no need to go overboard as far as the starters go.  The biggest question will be what to do at the QB position, but that is a topic that deserves its own attention. For now, I’ll go with Nick Foles as the starter next season. The two biggest question marks left after quarterback are the offensive line and the secondary.  B...

  • anyone that assumes that Foles is our starter should expect a losing season. When are fans like yourself going to be able to evaluate talent in a normal way. Where I live they laugh at Foles. In Philly, they think hes a possibility. Wagles have zero superbowls for a reason. The fans not only dont understand the game they protect a crappy owner like Lurie.
  • After the Dream Team crap you Eagles fans crowned your team with. I'd think you'd be to embarassed to bring up the subject of free agency. Get your head out of your @$$ and come to the realization that your Eagles are dead in the water until they get a QB.
