I'd sign Eli Apple if he's released

[Torturedcowboysfan]

What do you all think?
He should be 23 or 24 this year. He's 6'0 200 and runs 4.40.
Plus, he'll be angry at the Giants.

Patrick Robinson from the Eagles is a better move. He was ranked 6th in the NFL among starting CB's by PFF in 2017.

He was phenomenal as the Eagles slot CB. He's a free agent...will be tough for the Eagles to hold on to him.

 

[Idgit]

PFF sux.

Eli is supposed to be a bad apple, isn’t he? I heard he was trouble.

 

[SMASHMOUTH9473]

Hell to the no....
Apple isn't worth the headache. Drama Queen type whose mom, iirc, caused some sort of tiff with his playing style vs what the Gnats coaches wanted him to be doing. Pass

No thanks. I’ll take Apple. He’s younger with more upside.

I would think his price tag will be to much.

I think he might be worth it... IF... he would agree to come at a low price and prove he isn't a drama queen.

Is Apples mom basically a female Lavar Ball?

Not if he’s cut and trying to restore his reputatarion

 

[RoboQB]

Why take on this headache? We have enough reclamation projects.
I was hoping the Giants would keep him.

Signing Patrick Robinson is a double shot for us. Strengthen our side
while weakening theirs...although Philly will still be tough with the 2nd DB
from last year who sat out with an injury.

Nobody's as awful as Ball, but she's in the same category of "stage parents".

 

[RoboQB]

PFF sux.

When the leader on defense (Landon Collins) says he needs to grow up, it definitely looks bad for the kid.
At least his momma still thinks he's the best.

 

[WeaponX]

PFF sux.

I see what you did there...

But yeah he was the one Landon Collins called out, right?

PFF sux.

Exactly, and, if a team is willing to move on from a mid-early first round pick this quickly, then that raises a lot of red flags. I'll take Patrick Robinson as Valorious said.

 

[Idgit]

Yeah. Collins was worried he’d ruin the whole bunch.

His mom said people are lying on him

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Not even close. She's actually a journalist, so I get why with her platform she would defend her son against character shots. So even though I made a joke, she isn't Lavar Ball.

 

[atlantacowboy]

His mom said people are lying on him

The fact his mom is involved is reason enough to stay away.

Right?

Hey, I've got one reason for wanting to sign Apple on the cheap. Because maybe that would stop JJ from spending valuable resources at CB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[LACowboysFan1]

"Eli is supposed to be a bad apple, isn’t he? I heard he was trouble."

So was Charles Haley. That signing worked out pretty well, didn't it?

Just saying I'd check out things before I'd reject him...
