Have to assume one of them signs since we have an open spot and just cut a LB. 

Cunningham can’t cover at all and Jack is probably washed. But when you’re signing LBs two weeks into camp, that’s what you get. 

Man, Myles Jack was a tremendous talent coming out of UCLA. If he couldn't resurrect his career with the Steelers then my hopes for him doing anything here if brought in are pretty low. With that being said, he could instantly be one of the better LB on the team the minute he hits pen to paper. He's just 27. I'd be more than happy with a gamble.

Cunningham is only 28.  I guess I'd go with Jack since it seems like there's a better (but still small) chance he finds his old self.

 

Signed them both

Day 1 starting LBs signed during the 2nd week of TC.

Lol. Man, I hope Dean and Elliss can be serviceable. This is rough. 

Respect Howie's approach of throwing multiple cheap vets at the wall and hoping someone sticks. The approach IS good.

Lol. Honestly, we were spoiled going into last year.

If on the first day of free agency, the Eagles announced they signed all 3 of Cunningham, Jack and Morrow...I would think Morrow is the odd man out.

Ideally he’d approach the offseason having one proven, good LB on the roster. That would be nice.

He's still so young that he's not used to this yet.

I liked Cunningham in Houston but his role is mostly run stuffer. He's not really the rangy cover the TE type LB.

Jack was very good in the distant past but Pittsburgh wanted nothing more to do with him after last year and Pittsburgh is all about LBs.

 

They might both fit wonderfully between our excellent line and very good secondary but both guys have limits at this point.

Maybe when he’s done he can come in and compete for our third LB spot. 

Jack is 6-1 245. Cunningham is 6-3 240. Morrow and Dean are both 6-0 225. At the very least some size was brought in.

 

Interesting last sentence.

Look around the league. Off ball LB is rough.

Yeah I expect him to be aggressive in trade efforts there.

Bradham and Hicks were pretty good too. Would love to have a Bradham on this team.

Yeah. I think linebacker is the position that they’re going to make a trade before the season starts.

Unless they get really concerned and sign John Johnson, i think at safety they’re gonna let it play out till the deadline and if it’s not to their liking then make a move.

Two surprise cuts.  Was looking forward to seeing Rambo in preseason.  I hope Howie knows what he's doing because this has really disappointed me.  

How about a Punter

There it is. 

Well... it's a start.  But they didn't sign either of them yet.

A little Off-topic annd unfortunate story, Nigel Bradham had an estate sale down in Florida. Sold off the replica Super Bowl trophy the Eagles gave him and a bunch of jerseys and helmets amongst other things.
