After watching some footage of Pittsburgh cornerback Avonte Maddox, the first of the Eagles fourth round draft picks, I’m thinking the Eagles are drafting a slot corner. He’s definitely got the quickness and toughness to play that position.
The Eagles definitely have a need at that position with Patrick Robinson signing with the Saints and Jalen […]

I can’t say definitely that the Dallas Cowboys wanted to draft a tight end in the second round of this year’s draft, but all of the talk about the possible retirement of their long-time Pro Bowl tight end Jason Witten had everybody thinking tight end for them in the second round.

Week 1 vs Atlanta
I’m shocked that the season opener didn’t turn out to be against the Minnesota Vikings or Dallas Cowboys. On paper, I’d think those would make for much more compelling season-opening matchups.

The Birds biggest and most physical running back from a year ago, LeGarrette Blount, was in Detroit on Friday and he signed a deal with the Lions.

Yesterday Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham signed a five-year $40 million dollar deal with the Birds. I think this was a great move by the Birds because I thought Bradham was surely headed elsewhere. He said two other teams had shown a serious desire to acquire his services. and he emphasized his trust in team […]

It’s amazing how the sports atmosphere in Philadelphia has changed so much since the Eagles won the Super Bowl. The players for the Sixers, Flyers and Phillies have been inspired to step up and take the challenge. Both the Sixers and Flyers went on winning streaks. In addition, the front offices of those teams are […]
