Amendola is a 4.7 undersized WR lacking NFL strength. That would be insane to dress him for a NFL game to KR.

Felix Jones has played his way on down to Kick returns.

Pac is our Punt Returner -

Is Amendola returning kicks too? I thought he was just returning punts? We've had Crayton returning punts for how long, and he ain't no rocket ship.

My biggest problem isnt that he cant throw it, it is that he gives up on his WRs way too fast. He makes one quick look downfield then is ready to dump it short.

Thing I like about him as a backup is he can come into games with little work through out the week and will not do stupid things to get you beat. No doubt he is very willing to take the dump off passes but if defenders start cheating up on the short routs he has the ability to take it down field. Personally I like what Brad brings to the backup QB spot. He will not wow you but more important he will not get you beat

I think for Jefferson to make the team it will come down to his ability to play special teams. I think the same goes for Amendola

Judging by you're post of "westbrook is better than all the other nfc east backs combined." I can tell you aren't the best thread contributer, and you don't know football at all. You clearly also aren't the greatest talent evaluator seeing as you think Westbrook is better than Barber, Jones, Portis, Betts, Bradshaw and Jacobs combined.

he is. put all their talent into one player and westbrook will be better at everything but running through the tackles(which he can still do). hes probably the best player in the nfc east. hes a better wr than most the wr's in the nfc east too. do you know how bad the eagles would be without him? probably the worst team in the league.

The best overall player in the NFC East is DeMarcus Ware.

You're really not going out on a limb by saying Westbrook is better than most NFC East wide receivers... unless you're willing to state that he's somehow better than Terrell Owens or Plaxico Burress?

those are the only 2 wr's that are probably better than him. we will never really know as he doesn't play wr and he still puts up those numbers. you could make a case for ware. hes really good.

Westbrook is really good. I drafted him in fantasy football.

Westbrook is really good, but to say he is better than 6 running backs put together is idiotic. No player is better than six other players put together.

If you put Felix Jones' speed and cuts in Marion Barbers body you already have the best running back in the history of the NFL.

wrong. felix hasn't done jack squat. he could be the worst back ever drafted. we don't know. he has speed, but does he have the skills? can he play football in the nfl? nobody knows as he hasn't proven anything. what a joke. emmitt smith would be WAY better than felix and marion in one body and emmitt smith is slow and small. being the fastest and strongest doesn't mean anything. emmitt smith and jerry rice aren't even close to being the most physically gifted, yet they are they best ever.

when i mean put their talent together i don't mean take this persons speed and this persons strength. i mean taking one thing their good at and putting it into one. marion barber can break tackles and score touchdowns. clinton portis can run for the yards. brandon jacobs does the same things barber does but not as good. betts? betts? betts? bradshaw? what the hell can bradshaw do? westbrook is better than all those people combined. speed and strength have nothing to do with it. its production.

Amendola can punt and kick field goals too. ;) :)

Amendola and/or Jefferson was probably helped with the Stanback injury. Stanback could have season ending surgery which would likely put him on IR.

Ii think Amendola is a head of Jefferson....but neither is guaranteed anything...we could pick up someone or make a trade.

You seriously need to go back to school because your reading comprehension is basic at best. Felix Jones' speed and Marion Barbers size and strength is better than Westbrook. Go wear your Westbrook jersey to Texas Stadium Eagle lover.

Jefferson had been working with the 2nd team while Amendola had been working with the 3rd team IDK what they've been doing after the injury to stanback. I think stanback is practicing.

Isaiah Stanback will be rehabbing for the next week or so before he tries to resume practicing.

Izzy mentioned yesterday that he could already lift his left arm to shoulder level, which was deemed an encouraging sign by coach Wade Phillips.
