I think Anderson compares to Von Miller.  He was around 240 coming out of college.  I think Anderson will probably be closer to that weight by the draft.  They are about the same height.  I agree it would be a waste if Gannon does not get production out of Reddick.  On the other hand, unless they're drafting a QB, the team shouldn't pass on an elite edge rusher and I don't think they would.  

Anderson will fit nicely with Fangio calling the shots

With one exception I don't personally consider ownership as being part of the Front Office.

If they're dictating player salaries, how can they not be? 

@mattwill did you care to answer this?

I still remember @justrelax and I celebrating in the blog when we traded for Peters. We were stunned it only cost a 1st rounder. Peters was obviously a generational player. 

@mattwill was very much a part of that celebration as well. He and I were beating a drum for Peters for a month before the trade was made.

Let me guess. Alabama gets a bye into the finals, while 11 other SEC teams get to battle it out for the right to face them.

that pass was clearly incomplete.

That's what it says on the stat sheet.

Yes, plenty of unrestricted free agents have carved out a nice career.  Reggie White is a good example.

There is great irony in this post.

It's hard to know what to make of this class at this point.  No one thought Burrow or Herbert were elite prospects but they were definitely elite QBs last season.  I am not a fan of Bryce Young because of his size.  I think Revis has the best combination of athleticism and arm strength.  I would not put money on Revis being the better pro at this point.  

Yup.   I don't think Burrow or Herbert were viewed as the top QBs going in to their NCAA seasons before they were drafted, definitely Burrow.

Cincinnati and Notre Dame are proof there aren't even 5 worthy teams every year.  Pretty soon that school Mary Ingalls went to will get a CFP berth.

Eagles not on that list. Progress. Hopefully one day soon the team can both have talent and a lot of cap room. And LOL Saints

Didn't Howie do a bunch last season?

Looks like Jason Peters to Dallas is moving along

I don't believe Ralph Wilson was dictating individual salaries.  Given the tenuous state of his finances, he definitely set an overall budget that the GM was tasked to work within, and expected exceptions to that budget to come to him for approval.  That is like the NFL and the NFLPA setting the salary cap amount each year.  Do you consider them as Front Office?

Because we did them all last year and didn't have much left to do this year. We were basically the Saints last year.

Lions got close in a lot of games last year.  I think Pep Hamilton and Davis Mills are going to surprise some folks and Lovie Smith knows how to coach defenses.  I suspect both the Jets and Jags rise to mediocre this year.  

Agree. Just hope the Lions wait until week two to improve.

Anything other than the motivation of the Bills front office 14 years ago. Let's talk about Reed Blankenship. Kid's the new Vince Papale...tons of effort, don't know if he has the athletic profile to be anything other than a box S. Andddd go...

My apologies for conversing about how we acquired one of our greatest players of all time. Much better to discuss JJAW and Reagor.

And why we have 59 million in dead cap this year compared to the Saints 34 million

 The Jags and Texans should, Chicago still hasn’t replaced Lovie when they canned him what?  10 years ago.  
 Every QB not named Zach Wilson gets hyped in NY, Flacco, White and even Streveler has looked better in practices and games.  

 

Anyone local to the Philly area have a spot I can take my son to for some seafood newberg?

Absolutely,  but other teams do it more. The Eagles cap is still bad IMO in 2023, but it should be clean in 2024 as long as we get a QB on a rookie deal. Otherwise it gets dicey quickly

And that is why Howie kicked a first into 2023 to get a QB in a much stronger class.

Man.  That kid is on the Newburg kick ain’t he.  That’s pretty old school.  You should get him to try Beef Wellington or Chicken Duxelle.  

Not so much a kick... but I didn't order it when we were there, and frankly, its for me more than him.   But I thought I'd get more help if I asked on his behalf.   

 

Personally, I love good food... and the classics from the past were classics for a reason.
