One of the bigger busts in the Andy Reid era is leaving town.

The Eagles traded Reggie Brown to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for an undisclosed 2011 draft pick.
Brown never quite found a home with the Eagles, bouncing between roles as high as their No. 1 receiver, to as low as their No. 5. Some weeks he wasn’t even activated.

The Eagles selected Brown with their 35th pick of the 2005 draft, a move that excited the teams fan base. The Birds [...]

Julius Peppers and Aaron Kampman are not coming to town to help the Philadelphia Eagles.

However the team is taking care of its own.

The Eagles announced a contract extension with wide receiver Jason Avant. Avant, who was a restricted free agent, signed a five-year deal, but terms have yet to be disclosed.

The move comes on the heals of the team’s decision to pick up the $1.5 million bonus for Michael Vick. The bonus is part of the $5.25 salary Vick is [...]

Well, it didn’t take long. Eagles fans can cross Julius Peppers off their wish list as it is being reported that Peppers and the Bears have agreed on a contract.

The following is from ESPN’s John Clayton.

The Bears and Julius Peppers are in the process of finalizing a six-year deal to bring the top free agent in 2010 to Chicago, according to a source.

After agreeing on the numbers on the deal, both sides are having the language of the contract reviewed [...]

There is talk of the Eagles being interested in Julius Peppers, which in my opinion would be a great move for the Eagles.  Having peppers in addition to Trent Cole would allow both men to dominate as defenses pick which linebacker to cover on the pass rush. 

There are also rumors that the Birds may be interested in Packers DE Aaron Kampman.  Personally, I think it may be too early to jump on a DE 5 months removed from anterior cruciate [...]

The thought of Julius Peppers lining up opposite Trent Cole has had Eagles fans salivating since the team’s season ended in early January.

Apparently the same can be said for the Eagles’ front office.

Comcast SportsNet is reporting that the Eagles have made an offer to the offseason’s top prize. Jordan Raanan of CSNphilly.com wrote “According to Peppers’ agent Carl Carey, the Eagles have made an offer to Peppers and have “strong interest” in the five-time Pro Bowl defensive end.

Though no [...]

Wiht the NHL trading dealine now oast us it’s time to tunr our focus to the FL free agent market, which opens up at 12:01 a.m. on Friday. There is not as much out there this season as the uncapped year has forced many would be unrestricted free agents to become restricted. That means if teams want to aqcuire any of these players they must be willing to fork over mega bucks as well as draft picks.

Not every deal will [...]

There is a lot up in the air this off season with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Will they keep McNabb ?

Will they draft a linebacker in the first round for the first time since 1979 ?

Will McCoy be a satisfactory replacement for the departed Westbrook ?

Here is my take on the situation.  The Eagles have a very good returning nucleus to last years team that, in my opinion, underacheived by not getting deep into the playoffs.  

They need to keep McNabb.  I [...]
