K’Von Wallace played 3 defensive snaps Monday night. Better replace those snaps with a divisive retired guy who won’t even clear waivers! What an idiotic discussion 

But but he’s still on the team! Jenkins would look better with that 53rd spot

Only 3 snaps and almost gave up a TD...😒

Divisive???

If he's so horrible then why wouldn't he clear waivers🤔

Seems maybe it's not the conversation that's idiotic.

Yup they're different players.

CGJ excels in coverage Blankenship better in run support and going forward more than backwards.

Not saying he would be able to replace him but he could be a option if he plays well no?  Or would he be more of an Epps replacement?    Keep CGJ and let Epps walk?

Just trying to figure out the moves that will be to be made with cap space and all is the FA in defense.  

The most realistic move I see the Eagles making is signing Jaquiski Tartt to the PS, if he even agrees to it. It seemed like it wasn't an amicable split a few months ago.

The 53rd spot doesn't dress, Jenkins would so...

With Maddox out, the opposing teams of the past few weeks have had success attacking the middle of the field. In Washington's case, running McLaurin out of the slot. The middle of the field is a vulnerability now exacerbated by the absence of CGJ. Blankenship is an in-the-box run stuffer, and I am concerned how badly he will be exposed in pass coverage. We are definitely not fine there.

This is pretty simple. If you can get Malcom Jenkins, with Superbowl Championship experience, for your Superbowl run, to replace a dummpkoff like K'von Wallace, you do that move, 100 out of 100 times. I don't even see this argument.

I think he'd be more of an epps replacement.

Epps has been solid this year, nothing special but solid, eagles have a bunch of guys to re sign and might be more cost effective to let Epps walk and re place with a less expensive and comparable Blankenship.

Was Interesting hearing Blankenship give such high praise to Epps after the game, not that Epps Doesn't deserve the praise just found it interesting.

You're talking about a name with nothing left with a guy who gets released at the end of the year. That's foolish.

He stole our thing

I’d argue that has more to do with Maddox being out than anything else

Wallace is a minus on and off the field. Jenkins only needs to give you a handful of snaps and provide leadership. And already has good chemistry with Gardner. How is that bad?

He can't be worse than Wallace.

What's Tim Hauck up to.

Reid always had a few guys on speed dial that he could call off their couch when the team had Injuries, Tim Hauck, Jeff Thomason, Dorsey Levens ect...

Not sure Sirrianni has been around long enough to have those.🤷‍♂️

Could very well be the reason he was pissed.

Of course it does, but losing CGJ makes the situation worse. The middle is exposed and it will effect both the running and passing defense.... a big bruising RB, a strong TE and anyone running out of the slot.

Because other teams could easily block us from signing him, not because they think he’s any good.

If he came here, you think he’s gonna be happy as a back up? And yeah, he is divisive; he does a lot of great charity work off the field, but he’s a very outspoken guy. We don’t need that juju on this team
 

You just want him because youre an emotional bish wishing for past glory who can’t use logic to see how bad an idea it is to replace 3 snaps a game.

Yup.

Josiah Scott at nickel has been awful 

I know he had a pick but he really didn't do much other than get under a slay deflected pass 

Every team has picked on a Josiah and why wouldn't they, he's a circus midget and why would I throw at skay or bradberry.

Not to mention he's useless in run support 

Will be glad to have Maddox back, he's so much better in coverage and run support.

Blankenship is not an on the box run stuffer.

I do want to see more of Blankenship before thinking about replacing Epps, but how much is Epps going to cost to re-sign? I think he's mostly underrated here. He plays every single snap and is not a liability in the backfield.

 

Maybe Howie and Co forcing this guy on Doug was a bad idea.

In hindsight, it was pretty funny how Howie brought in this guy whose supposed to be a master at pre-snap motion and Doug just straight ignored him.

Outspoken guy like say CGJ???

Every point you've made to not get Jenkins has been refuted so now predictably you resort to name calling.

Why the heck would any team sign Jenkins just to keep the eagles from signing him especially if he's so bad???

GMs around the league aren't saying lets sign this trash vet to our PS just to keep him off the eagles, and even if they did you think a divisive Jenkins would put up with some team signing him just to keep him from another team.

I think we're at that point of the day where you need to take that pot walk with your dog brah...

The Eagles defense tends to play downhill.  CJGJ is bigger and a bit faster but their 3 cones and short shuttles are close.  CJGJ has a bit better instincts but Blankenship may be the better tackler albeit he bites and takes worse angles.  There is a drop off, no doubt.  Not sure why Blakenship is seen as stronger against the run.  Probably pretty equal there. But CJGJ has the experience that Blankenship lacks. CJGJ is a better ball hawk. For those bemoaning and cutting Wallace due to instincts and missed angles, not a lot of difference with Blankenship.

Yeah. I think in our quarters-based coverage, he needs to be the safety on the strong side since he’ll have less area to cover. He can’t cover a lot of open space like CJGJ. We don’t really use our safeties in the box that much, but he can definitely spin for depth and attack.
