    edwards was by far my first choice. don't like babin's age...still, he represents a huge upgrade over juqua parker. our ends should definitely be able to get some serious pressure on qb's this year without blitzing.

    Yeah..I mean you're locking up a journey man basically thats 31 years old that played well for a season

    When you have a 26 year old STUD out there

    24 Million under the cap ?

    We have no clue how good Edwards really is. He played on a beast of a line with one of the best DE's and 2 of the best Tackle combo's EVER against the run. I think he's way more of a risk personally. Babin knows this system and also knows Washburns. And with the late start all free agents will get it made more sense imo. Let alone u got him for a hell of alot cheaper. Edwards will be way over paid imo,great signing at 7 mill guaranteed only.
    Go Birds!!!!

    I shit my pants when I heard they gave babin 5 years. then I saw it's only for 28 million, with only 6-7 guaranteed.

    shame on me for doubting reid. I would have preferred edwards, but I can live with this

    i'm fine with babin...but there's no way edwards is a risk. he'd be playing opposite a pro bowler here too. our tackles, with dixon, are decent. best part is he's only 26. he's the kind of player the eagles of old would have gone after. he's got a lot of quality years ahead of him. babin's got a couple.

    the late start doesn't have much effect on linemen in my opinion either. football is football--especially on the lines.

    but like i said before, the additions of babin and drc vastly improve this defense.

    edit--the one thing about babin is he only plays about 60% of the snaps where edwards would have been an every down guy. he's a pass rush specialist. washburn is a fan of the kind of rotation system the birds have been utilizing for the last few years. he used them at tennessee.

    i will also add that going with babin over edwards doesn't shut the door on my boy b graham (whenever he gets healthy). i read before that he might be ready by mid season. so i guess they can rotate him in.

    babin's contract seems to make it easy for the birds to cut in a year or two if it appears graham is ready to take over the reigns (which as a first round pick that they traded up to get, i would hope he'd be able to ;) )


    now get this kolb deal done already!

    Looks like the Kolb deal is done. DRC and a 2nd round pick, think the Eagles came out way on top on this one.

    and suddenly a new contender for one of the most overpaid. i think kolb is going to be good but man that seems high for a guy who has never been a starter in the NFL.

    I think it's a good trade for both teams. I wish kolb the best in Arizona. Through all the nonsense of the past few years he handled himself admirably. Class act all the way.

    Andy Reid is the man. Great work getting a solid return in this deal. Hopefully kolb has a solid year and the cards go 3-13 :thumbup: .

    Defense is already much improved from last year. Thank god

    wasn't it just yesterday everyone here and on TV was saying how the Eagles had no leverage anymore and were panicking about the situation? funny how the people actually involved seem to know a bit more than sometimes given credit for :D
