Senior Bowl Recap
The Senior Bowl game played in Mobile, Alabama showcases the best NFL draft prospects and future Fantasy talent each year. The game itself can be a little dull for those who aren’t followers at the college level, but the stats don’t lie. 84 players from the 2010 Senior Bowl were drafted in the April NFL 2010 draft and 10 of those were 1st round picks. In fact, the MVP...

Taking a Look at the Eagles Potential Practice Squad Roster
The Eagles have wrapped up at Lehigh and are inching closer and closer to the regular season. It won’t be too long before the Eagles are forced to make some decisions regarding their roster. Some players may be placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning they’ll miss at least the first six games of the season. Other players will either be released from...

Is Andy Reid Under the Gun?
That's the subject of my new SB Nation Philly column.

First Draft Pick Signs
This is the guy I think has the potential to be a major steal at pick #200. LSU's bruising running back Charles Scott. I remember watching this guy run two years ago and saying to myself, "Wow! If the Birds had someone like that, maybe Westbrook could stay healthy!" He wasn't as effective last season, and his lack of speed saw him drop down a few rounds. Keep in...

Your Guaranteed Money Won't Save You
Newer readers -- and not just Tommy's guys, but also the folks we picked up last season -- might not understand all the Tony Hunt jokes on this site. Those are at my expense.
I have a soft spot for PSU players anyway, but Hunt really was one of the guys I most enjoyed rooting for over the last few years. I was more than a little excited when we drafted him a few years ago...

Tick-Tock
The other day I made mention in a post that Quintin Demps is a player who could "go from zero to hero" with a good spring and summer. This generated some talk about Quintin and his situation. He's a player that some people are very down on. Rightfully so, to a certain extent, but we need to see what he does this summer. Let's go back a few years...

DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK: Tony Hunt To Try Out For The Giants
DID YOU KNOW? Tony Hunt was one of only a handful of college football players who dared to attempt the mid-air "Heisman" pose. Remember back in 2007 when Tony Hunt was drafted by the Eagles and the entire portion of the PSU fan base whom are also Eagles fans were praising the pick and felt that Hunt would become the short-yardage power back to complement a speedy Brian...

There's A Plan Here
It's wrong to say the Eagles don't draft for need. They just perceive those needs a bit differently than most folks do.
Which is why the Brandon Graham pick isn't that surprising. I mean, not many people saw "Brandon Graham" coming, but "impact DE they think really fits their system" should never be a surprise.
Really, for the franchise that...

Leonard Weaver Signs Three-Year Extension
Great news on the free agent front, as the Eagles agreed to terms with one of their own early this morning. The All-Pro fullback's three-year deal is worth $11 million total, with $6.5 (that's more than half, BTW) coming in the form of guaranteed dollars. That's a serious payday for a fullback.The two sides had been discussing a contract extension for weeks, with things...

The Booker Story: One Man's Garbage Is Another Man's Garbarge
So I was reading up on the happenings of an NFC East rival and I came across the following bit regarding Lorenzo Booker.It seems that every Eagles' fan favorite whipping boy was in for a look-see with the G-Men. After watching Booker's tenure in Philly it's not surprising that Booker left without a new deal. The Giants liked Gartrell Johnson better. (So who has the better ex-Charger...
