Eagle Nation Not Happy Eagles Didn't Land Roy Williams...

[Pick6TerenceNewman]

I live outside Philly and listen to wip610. After the Cowboys land WR Roy Williams, fans were calling in very upset with the Eagles organization for not getting Roy Williams after the Eagles made a call to Detroit to see what interest there was in a trade for RW's.

The price was just to step for the Eagles!

The Eagles also called KC for the services of TE Tony Gonzo. The asking price ranged from a third rounder to a 2nd and a 5th.

The price was to step for the Eagles!

BTW, the Giants were the second of six teams that called on Gonzo with no deal to be made.

Can't wait for tomorrow as WIP's morning show will be going off that the Cowboys improved and the Eagles stayed idle!

I can't imagine any of our pals in the NFC East are very happy about this at all.

Nope! This will challenge the NFC East secondary's.

You mean Philly fans are up in arms about something?:laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: No kidding.

He wanted to play in Dallas and Jerry is quite the business man.

How would you feel if you were a fan of an opposing NFC east team?

I work with an idiot that tried to say that Roy Williams will prove no more effective than Patrick Crayton...He's a diehard Skin fan; go figure. That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard a real football fan say. We have 2 top flight receivers on our team at one time - this is like Madden!

its possibly RW helped nix deals to SF and/or Philly by not cooperating on doing a new contract. Doubtful that anyone (including us) would trade for him w/o agreement on a new deal.

Yeah I don't know what that guy was thinking.

 

[Rudy]

actually after thinking about it - is Roy Williams a top 5 wr? top 10? I forgot about a lot of top notch players.

I'd count on that!

But never underestimate the cheapness of the Eagles. They always have to feel that they've fleeced somebody and that they're the smartest guys in the room.

That's why they seldom get deals done.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

I would say top ten or top fifteen for sure. I don't think he cracks five IMO.

Ask your buddy who the QB is in Detroit and how many games have they won in the last ten years.

Neither, YET! This trade reminds me of a situation in Bigg Davis. When the Cowboys got Bigg he was a bust and was over-rated. The Cowboys paid him too much. Well, everybody was wrong. Bigg is a bad ***.

Anybody that plays for Detroit and Arizonia will never win and until they leave they will suck, ie.... Davis, Thomas Jones and now Roy Williams.

LOL! The Eagles have TWO #1's, TWO #2's, AND Lito Sheppard(who wants out), and they STILL thought the price was TOO steep??

Not to mention, Roy's already made a Pro Bowl. His criticism isn't so much that he isn't good, but that he's not as good as he "should" be.

That's an excellent point. They never pull the trigger, though they do have something special in DeSean Jackson.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

guess he snooze you will lose.

They badly needed a TE though. LJ Smith sucks wind. Gonzo would have been a HUGE upgrade.

but they don't have a #1 and I'm pretty sure we can all agree RW > Reggei Brown....
