FA and Draft

by joecincy07 on Jan 31, 2012 7:09 PM EST

So there has been a lot of talk recently about the draft coming up and who all we should get as well as who we should try and acquire through free agency. Of the guys that are out there that do not include our own team members, though I think it is a farfetched idea, I think it would be amazing to pick up DeSean Jackson. He is fast, would be great alongside Green, and we could free some space up by getting rid of Tate who really didn't do a whole lot for us (though he did better than Cosby). He had a flair up at the beginning of the season, but apparently he manned up to his whole team and apologized and told them that he wanted to be a better teammate and his coaches said over the course of the season that they noticed his attitude improve and his character mature so that doesn't worry me as much. If not him, I would love someone like Dwayne Bowe or drafting a guy like South Carolina WR Alshon Jeffery.

For other Free Agency scores, we have to address our O-line, as well as through the draft, but I think first round we should take the best guy available. I would love to hear your all's thoughts and I will expound upon my thoughts more when I have the time later tonight. WHO DEY!

Jeffery would be beast next to AJ.....

Love the idea of getting Dwayne Bowe as well. Not feeling like Desean is the player we knew his rookie year, he’s had a few blows to the head now, major concussion concern there. One more good lick and he might be done for his career.

AD to AJ = TD!!

Bowe would be nice

Not liking the idea of Jackson. Seems to have the diva, me first attitude. Maybe I’m wrong and the Eagles are treating him wrong.

However, I really like Wayne as a FA to target. He gives a 2 or 3 yrs of veteran presence for our young WRs and we can solidify our #2 WR position by the time his contract is up.

I think with the two rooks (Dalton/AJ) a verteran like that might add great value.

If you watched Wayne on the sidelines during any games this season, that guy still wants to win. He is used to winning and brings that swagger with him. For the right price, shorter term…..think would be great.

I like Wayne also

He actually seems like a player would could realistically go after and get.

I like your idea...

But would change one thing and maybe keep Scaife, I think he could be a little more effective than Lee. Also, I don’t think it would be extremely difficult to resign manny lawson.
