I really would like to see the unis COMBINE the old with the new. Love the NEW logo better than the old full Eagle. Kelly green with SILVER stripes and trim(not gray)  with midnight green wings on a kelly green helmet. Work those 3 through the rest of the uni. Maybe have the full bird(old logo) on the sleeves. Put the new "E" logo on the front and back with the player number right under it. I would love to design these myself

The uniform is an issue. The Mojo was flowing in the Kelly Green.

Ham Hates Gainwell(for whatever reason we have yet to discern) as in one of his posts he failed(or purposely) to mention him as a contributing RB. I like the Shipley kid. Remains to be seen if he will take the relief role for Bark. I think Bark came here because we could give him a rest and not use him EVERY down. Gotta be a little nice perk and maybe why he signed here. NY ran him into the ground,giving him some break will extend the mans career. Despite what Ham thinks I still believe Gains is RB2,but all hell would break loose if he was named the week 1 "starter". I think we should do that just for Ham,whaddya y'all say? 🤣

I think Gainwell gets the 2nd amount of snaps.... but Shipley gets more carries. 

Kelly green brings back memories of freezing my butt off at the Vet as a kid. No big stadium monitors back then but dad had his Marine crank up tv. It only had a 4" screen but peeps would line up behind us to watch.

JMO but I would have liked to have retained Swift. That would remind me of the old Csonka/Kiick days in Miami. I feel Swift and Gains were too similar in style. No need for 3 clones so I can see why Swift went because Gains is still under contract. Anyway Bark is a big improvement over them all including even when we had Sanders who really petered out here in NC. I like Gains for the different style he offers us. Ship should take over the 2 in time,how fast we won;t know for awhile. Above all else there are 2 things I would love to see.1)Hurts play as a pass first QB with him running being after read 3/4 2) An astoundingly better secondary that actually challenges opposing QB's. Would love to call CJG, Mitchell and DeJean as "Pick city"

Too much money 

Swift getting paid, think it's like 8 mill/yr avg plus bonuses - tough to afford another high priced RB

Gains (maybe) last year here. I fully suspect Ship to solidly take over the 2 at some point in the season. It's not something we have to rush. And as per Moore we will use different RB's depending who we play. Not that bark won't get the lions carry share, but if 1 relief back is the better option we have 2  to choose from. At the end of the year we will see if the late RB can move off the PS and onto the roster. Then we won't miss Gains at all, and Ham will be so happy

He says WR3 may not be on the roster right now and he is totally wrong. Obviously this idiot cannot scout WR's. Best SLOT WR in the draft. he will need to get "NFL acclimated" but that should happen fairly quickly. Then I want this fool fired for stupidity. Only way he won't make an impact is if he is ignored. Hurts needs to make 3(at least) reads,not 1. This guy(Frank) has been around the block, and I can't believe he is this stupid. I fully expect Smith to take the job outright before mid season(if they let him play that is). I don't want another Penny where talent rides pine). Parker can be used in the RZ,but Smith should be used on the way to the EZ and get the bulk of the catches from the slot. Now add in Goedert and Hurts needs to process faster than he has done in the past. With Bark here, I expect to see LESS RPO and more PLAY action passing. If the Oline is solid there is zero reason for Hurts not to be able to make 4 reads and pass decisively. Although Ainias is not the talent of JJ,he has many similar qualities and we would be foolish not to utilize him. Hurts needs to see him. If he can do that A Smith can be a devastating weapon and I would love to roll up this article and ram it down "Roobs" throat. Roob is not a noob but he is a huge boob writing this

I think you need to understand ...these guys don't spend 12 months a year on college players like you do.  Rookies are a wait and see... to you, he is the " best slot receiver in the draft " to the rest of the world he is a 5th round draft pick...wait and see.

Round 5 because slot guys are not the priority and if he doesn't spend the time as I do,then he is in no position to make stupid statements. Just say "we have some promising players who could step up" and be done with it. No need to badmouth the draft picks we have as "that player may not be on the roster". As you said we need to find this out and he stupidly bashed players for no reason before he even knows. Just a poorly written article

I don't think anyone was " badmouthing" draft picks.  Especially dudes that were 5th round.  Expectations aren't high there.  Certainly not starter level.

The guys may not be on the roster...that's fact.

 During the four years that D’Andre Swift and Saquon Barkley have both been in the league, Swift has more scrimmage yards, more catches, more receiving yards, more rushing touchdowns, more total touchdowns, more yards per carry and more yards per reception. Take a look:

 

Barkley

Swift

Rushing Yards

2,901

2,729

Rushing Average

4.0

4.6

Rushing TDs

Receptions

145

195

Receiving Yards

941

1,412

Still wish we could have kept Swift, different kind of yards

That and the Gnats QB and OL suck

I think he can start. Why can't he????  It's demoralizing to draftees to say "that guy may not be on the roster yet" Just really poor treatment of kids that have dreams. Slot guys are not in HUGE demand on draft day, so I see no reason he can't start in time. If they fail,let them,but no DAMN WRITER needs to speak of them this way. He needs to STFU and let them succeed or fail. I think "Roob" should be a guy not on the Eagles writing roster. Imagine you are A Smith reading this BULLSHEET. Also awful for Parker,Paris and Howie to read this garbage. Roob should be a Wal-Mart greeter

The guy may be on the roster is also fact. SLOT guys are not premier positions,so there is no reason to spend a high pick if you don't need to(and why he was on my mock LATE albeit in round 4). JJ was quite exceptional,but he is also capable outside. A Smith is probably not. He will be limited to the slot. Why draft anyone after round 4 then with this loser mentality? Mailata was undrafted, was he bashed for that?? By his "standards" Blank should not be on the roster. How many other guys did we get IN or after round 5 that made the roster? This is plain stupidity to make this statement before you even know. Like I said,if he fails he does,but he doesn't need any "help" from brainless fools. We should never have signed Parker or Paris either because they may not be on the roster either. In fact, after round 4, let's fold up the tent on draft day and bash Howies FA selections while we are at it

Don't tell Mailiata or Blankenship,they are unaware of that

BTW Kelce was drafted in round 6. He should never have made the roster, let alone become a starter

You gotta stop this.  Swift was a pro bowl RB going into his 2nd contract...he was looking for real money.  He got it.    He wasn't going to sign at backup RB money.

What this shows.... is OL is the driving force behind the stats.  Detroit and Philly lines are night and day compared to that awful NYG OL!

Sure...he can start.  Could also be one of the other vets....or another WR.  

That's why the post was that an interesting position to watch was the 3rd receiver.   That's what the article said...there wasn't any " badmouthing " here. 

" an interesting battle to watch"  isn't badmouthing, why would you take it as such?

Yes.... " may" or maybe not.... correct.   Unknown....and an interesting spot to watch. Correct.
