Ok... I couldn't think of anything worse for the future of this team to be honest.

Sure he might get injured in a game or 2. But as long as he is on the field, hes adding a dimension for us. Every game he can replace hightower we can be hitting on all of those missed opportunities where Hightower drops it. The impact of having him on the field is still huge.  Its not as if hes a useless player coming back. 

for me it's just that he will only tease you with a few good plays and then get hurt again.  So tired of our top line guys not being healthy enough to play. They still count against the cap, and now any plays he takes away from Guys like Hightower only slows down the progress of those guys, who we will need to know by end of season if they can e counted on for next year or not.   

I am really really tired of this team relying on old guys to stay healthy, and it never pans out. Time to say goodbye, if it's me, I trade DJax for a case of beer.

You do you. I'm rooting for wins and the playoffs.

Not as far fetched as people think. We could have the entire O line back, minus Dillard. Reagor, Jackson and Jeffery (at least for a few snaps)

If this team gets healthy at the right time they could score on anyone. Of course that doesn't solve the LB problem

Yes, but Howie gonna Howie. I think it's a complete toss up if we'll be buyers or sellers. These next few games likely decide the difference. 

Howie will stand pat. He wont buy, nor sell. Because we are in the mix, but have a bad team. He will not make any major trades. Maybe something like Avery last year.

What brand?

He's a sunk cost at this point. And he'll likely be on a snap count. Hightower can still learn by watching how DeSean plays. And, it has the potential of increasing Carson's confidence. The only downside to Desean is we all know he's gonna get hurt again. But, for as long as he's healthy, whether that's one snap or 100, you're damn right I'm excited and will be cheering for him to do well.

Over/under on desean snaps has been set at 15.5. Bet accordingly lol

I wouldn't mind if he could score us a decent LB. But, that's equal parts hard to come by as teams aren't gonna willingly give one up, and compensation is always an issue. But, yeah, if nothing is the right deal, standing pat is fine by me.

I'd have to get a case of some craft beer. 

No PBR or Milwaukees Best.

Also, if Desean shows up and plays well and doesn't get hurt, for those of you who want to trade him, what better way to increase his value?

On a snap count. Keeps getting hurt. Hasn't been able to be a feature of this offense since week one last year. So good to have him back eating in to others snaps.

If thats the plan, then ok. 

Over under on actual number of games Djax takes any snaps in the rest of the year. 10 being the most, 1 being the least. 

 

I say 3 games. Your thoughts?

Who's snap counts? Fulgham gonna get his, Ward his. You worried about Hightower? Watkins?

I'd rather they take the snaps yes. Young guys getting valuable experience.

He’d have had a better argument if reagor was healthy. But as he’s hurt and likely out til after the bye he’s really only taking snaps from Watkins and hightower. Which really i think we are asking hightower to play way too many snaps as a 5th round rookie who’s learning as he’s going. 

Man, Odell.

Went on a date about 2 weeks ago and the girl was all about PBR. I was like this isn’t going to work out.

Yup we need to find out if the young'ins can play. And prior to the offseason.

Agreed. Ultimately I want this team to win games. Desean/Fulgham/Ward gives us a better chance of that than Hightower/Fulgham/Ward. Plus, Desean when he does play well is one of the most exciting guys in the league. I don't understand how you can't be excited about this. 

Eagles restructured Cox’s deal you create space. Might be up to something

3 things could happen, we made space to re-sign a player, trade for a player, or to eat salary this year of player we plan on trading away.   Knowing Howie, I pick option A, we will re=sign a young guy.
