Apparently, Mitchell was working out with the Ravens.

I'd like to see a return of those glorious hands...

Thank God it's not in Eagles green.

The game is called Goal Line Blitz. You can create a player (or players) and have them sign contracts with teams in the league, train them and buy them equipment and watch them play in their games. For more information, go check it out.

The Eagles DE has offiically changed his name from Juqua Thomas to Juqua Parker. It's going to be weird now. No more "JT."

I've always thought he was such an underrated back, and when I saw the Broncos had traded him to the Lions last year, I was absolutely astonished. Then to watch him get almost nothing done in Detroit, I was still floored.

Now he's an unrestricted free agent.

I know many may not agree with me, but I'd like to see Philadelphia sign him to a deal and put him behind Westbrook, or use the two of them in 2RB sets. Think about the blinding speed we'd have on the field if Bell and Westbrook were standing behind McNabb at the same time!

Thoughts/comments?

P.S. I don't think he will command too much money, either...

...Not really as a player.

He was just a hilarious dude. And once in a while he'd even go on radio shows in Philly. Even more of his brilliance.

Dhani Jones was awesome. We shoulda signed him to a minimum contract and let him get in like once a game just so he'd still be in Philly to bless us all with the funny guy at charity events or on radio stations.

First of all, thanks a thousand on behalf of everyone to Donovan McNabb for reaching out to his fans and replying to the open letter. That was an awesome thing for you to do. The majority of Philadelphia, and every REAL sports fan in this city, appreciates you so much, and we know you're the key to a Lombardi Trophy.

Now, we can begin to wish:

1. Trade with the Bengals for Ocho Cinco.

Chad Johnson has made it clear that he wants out. I think he's going to be gone. I also think it won't really take a first rounder to bring him to Philadelphia.

My take? Send a 2nd Round Pick to the Cincinnati Bengals, and possibly a defensive player since the Bengals are in need, for Chad. Now the question is who on the defense? The Eagles' safety corps is deep, because Mikell and Reed really stepped out this year. I think it is safe to say that Sean Considine can go, because Quintin Mikell is more than a role player. He is ready to take the spot as starting SS this year.

2. Make some cuts/trades to get the cap going.

Defense:

Some people have been making these statements for a while. Some have been on the money, some absurd.

We do need to cut Jevon Kearse, because he has indeed lost a step due to frequent injuries. We may be able to trade Darren Howard, so I'd say weigh that option before cutting him. However, the Eagles don't need him.

Offense:

If we do bring in a new WR, the first WR to go should be Greg Lewis. Some people have said Avant and/or Baskett should be cut, but both players have shown flashes. I can see Baskett being the " David Tyree" of the Philadelphia Eagles sometime in winter of next year.

Trade/cut Ryan Moats. Brian Westbrook, Correll Buckhalter, and Tony Hunt are enough for the RBs. No need to hold onto Moats any longer. Buck showed a lot of potential to play well in a backup role again this year. Let Hunt keep riding the bench and gaining experience, and let him stay healthy. In case he needs to hit the field big time, he'll be ready.

Give T Winston Justice one more year. Maybe, just maybe...

3. Let LJ Smith go.

This is one that will cause some shuffles in the fan base. Highly expected.

LJ Smith is going to demand money. He is oft-injured. He is coming off of an injury. He has awful hands.

The Eagles are seeing Brent Celek turn into a solid TE, but I don't think he's really ready to walk in and play dominating football in 2008. Then again, who knows? Personally, I like him, and his hands have been great. He can block, also, which is something we need from a TE.

If a TE is available elsewhere, go for him. I've heard many speculate Alge Crumpler as a possibility. If it's possible, having Alge and Brent on the field with the receivers will be HUGE for this offense.

4. Watch the secondary.

If anything becomes available in Free Agency, DIVE ON IT!

Lito is one of the top corners in the NFL, but he has struggled with injuries. Having him out for much of the season really hurt the secondary. Sheldon is also one of the best CBs in the league, but he can't hold the fort all on his own. FS Brian Dawkins is still one of the most punishing safeties in the NFL, but he's old. And yes, like many have said before, we need to start looking for a replacement. As much as we don't want to even think about the Eagles without Dawk.

5. Drafting:

1. If DeSean Jackson is there, I'd grab him. Another OT is not necessary THIS year, because I don't see Thomas or Runyan retiring for at least two or three more years. Another position of interest would be CB.

2. Traded for Chad Johnson.

3. Safety, preferably Tom Zbikowski.

4. If we didn't grab one yet, a KR man. Without a doubt, we need

one by the fourth round AT THE LATEST.

5. OG; because I think we can use some depth there.

6. DE; just to add depth, behind Abiamiri, Thomas, and Cole.

7. FB, if Thomas Tapeh is let go. Otherwise, somewhere in the secondary.

These are my personal wishes.

And of course, for DMac5 to lead Philly to the Super Bowl this year =]
