I'd like to see the list. They all most likely didn't miss 25% of the games like Barnett has.

    Hmm.  Feels like we've finally cut the cord.  Floating out in the ether. Anger at the faceless dismissal and marginalization of it's own fans by PE.com. But extreme gratitude for guys l

    I mentioned this previously on this board, and in the past years ago on the other board.   I'm not sure Howie has ever come out and said it this plainly, but Howie is telling the truth here.

What do you think happened to Bacarty1?  

He must’ve taken up Bacarty2’s challenge to meet in person.

Roob must have forgotten to look at that column in his pfref search.

Howies asleep at the wheel! We need one and we need it nowz!

Really hope we hold fast with the current roster. Scott needs meaningful time and I still think clement can show

Yikes, that's pretty damning for all the people saying he's a solid player.  Ugh.  

He's also missed a lot of games due to injury.

I'm interested in Freeman if he comes dirt cheap, which isn't likely. Everyone else out there, meh.

I'm much more interested in seeing what Clement/Warren can show over somebody like McCoy. Holyfield and Killins don't do much for me.

And most are probably getting a higher % of snaps.  What’s Barnett’s snap % since he’s been in the league?

Is that supposed to make me like Barnettt more or less?

There's also a long way between being a 13-15 sack per year guy and being a guy who probably never has 10 in his career.

I’m excited to see what Warren brings to the table and to see if Clement can get back to his Super Bowl form. 
 

As far as Killins goes, the kid has amazing speed.  If he can demonstrate the ability to return kicks, I think he has a shot.  If he can double down by returning punts as well, I think he should make the roster.  
 

I know a lot of us have a sour taste in our mouth after what happened with Pumphrey but....

A. Killins is an undrafted free agent so it’s a win-win if he makes the team.

B.  Killins is apparently really strong for his size and weight...which could help with durability issues. 

 

That DL group picture from a few days back shows that we shouldn't expect any muscular/explosive transformation as he matures.  Just not someone who passes the eye ball test for an NFL DE.  I know I know, not that there haven't been a few greats who have failed that test.

Neither more or less, just genuinely curious. Roob is touting or at least implying they are all better players, so is a guy who has 1 or 2 more sacks than Barnett but played in 13 more games better?

I think Barnett has the potential to be a 10 sack guy.  I think this year will be the tell-tell with what happens with him.  He’s approaching his prime and this year could be a break out year for him.

Frankly, that is my biggest issue with Barnett

41, 22, 68. But that’s overall so includes games missed, I’m too lazy to go through only games he played.

Killins to me is a holiday scratch off. It didn’t cost anything to me, if you win anything off it it’s great, but I’m not expecting to be able to use it to pay my mortgage. He’ll have his chance to prove me wrong but I’ll need to see it to believe it. I think he could possibly carve out a specialist/gadget role but I can’t see him being used as your traditional RB.

Well, the first year he actually got a starting caliber % of snaps, he had 6.5 sacks.  If he improves from that number, I think he will solidify himself as a decent DE.

I don’t see him getting a ton of snaps at RB, especially his rookie year.  I can see him being a return specialist and if he proves himself there, then work him in on special plays, etc. 

Honestly my biggest question is LT

Lots of stories about the Eagles are disappointed with Dillard but they've done nothing to correct that so I have a hard time believing it's true

Im not giving up on killlins yet if we can get him in space and flood the field with speed but yes I hear you on the rest.

LB is my worry. 

Between the coronavirus and racism opinions... seeing a Foles vs Wentz debate on Twitter is slightly refreshing.

That can be said of about half the roster.  It's beyond frustrating.

That's one gorgeous boat too.  One of these years I'm going to make it down to OCMD during the white marlin tourney just to watch all the boats go in and out of the inlet.

If you're into bill fish tournaments, and blue marlin specifically, check out the White Marlin open in Ocean City,  Maryland. I've seen some MONSTROUS blue marlins there -- the winner for the blue marlin category is usually in the 700+ pound range, and can even top 1,000 pounds!
