Kiko Alonso traded for Shady McCoy

[StylisticS]

How? You can't trade cap space.

Just repeating what they are saying lol.

 

[Risen Star]

I get your line of thinking here. I was ready to talk about them going after Murray but I'm late to the party and you're probably right. Still though, I would not rule it out. What an even more interesting match-up that would be if they did sign him. If you're Chip you have to think Demarco would have huge games against us, out of spite for not paying him what the Eagles would.

McCoy is being moved because of a philosophical belief of not paying big dollars to a RB.

 

[DC Cowboy]

lol, wow. And Murray chose to enter this sort of RB market.

what if they sign Murray?

Thats 49m in cap space with no restructuring too. They can build a hell of a team.

A dream team

I don't think that is all of it

It was evident during the year that there was an issie between the two...chip consistently pulled shady off the field

Who do you think they target in free agency? I'm thinking Suh, maybe Ingram, heck maybe Hardy, too. 49 million can go a long ways.

C.J. Spiller's on NFLN reminiscing about his time in Buffalo.

Cherished memories.

 

[Nightman]

So the Eagles go out and spend a ton in free agency. Who cares? They did the same thing back in 2011 and went 8-8. They still won't address QBS to the extent that it will matter too much this season.

They also cut Trent Cole, Cary Williams and Todd Hermanns, Demeco Ryans is probably gone, Graham is a FA, now Shady is gone and Maclin is a FA.

I don't know, it looks like chaos to me. Oh yeah and they don't like their QB anymore.

 

[Szczepanik]

Holy crap. And it's not like they don't have a backup... they still have Darren Sproles. If they cash in on free agency and the draft that team is gonna be scary.

You mean the same Sproles that is getting older and is not suitable for a 25 per game carry?

 

[CrownCowboy]

So McCoy is gone from Philly....

Now all they need to do is give away the farm for Mariota and they'll be the favorites in the Pac-12.....er....I mean the NFC East....lol.

If the Eagles sign Spiller, that could really be thrown in to the pot for what the Eagles are getting in this trade. McCoy just replaced him.

They did but every report I've seen from people connected to the team over the past year has said Chip doesn't believe in paying a RB that much money. Or a WR for that matter. He believes his system can produce without one.

 

[DC Cowboy]

Alonso's a stud, but hey...we've got Anthony Hitchens.

they are going after Reevis

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Shadey was on one of my fantasy teams last year... what a freaking let-down he was. Ugh, outside of a couple good games, he was a do nothing. For several games Sproles out-performed him.

 

[RonSpringsdaman20]

as impressive as their cap space may be, they are now in need of an identity at rb, qb, & db..... & wr is an uncertain.
even if they make solid moves... it will take more than a year to become cohesive. although they make the right moves in the secondary and that defense will be scary this year.

they run a 3-4 no? cant remember..but if so..they have cox at dt there...no suh'p' for them.

Yeah, I believe that
