Pollard is going to look awful without Reed behind him - Reed's the only reason Pollard has the chance to line guys up like we're use to seeing.

Maybe the Patriots can finally beat him then

Vick on a 1 year deal eh? Mostly incentives too? Wonder if Kelly can work some magic or if the NFC is a 3 team race already.

The Eagles aren't that short on talent really. Can Vick play 16 games is a big question.

Can his WRs play 16 games as well? Their Oline is terrible and defensively they are a mess too.

Seriously. I hate when people shit on the Eagles, cause it's that much worse when the Giants lose.

I wouldn't get that upset about losing to division rivals. I mean shit, the Browns beat the Steelers every once in a while. When you play a team in the division, records and talent kind of aren't as important.

Vick is washed up. For some reason his decision making has went to shit over the last 2 years. The thing that revived his career was his huge turnaround in the turnover department. He wasnt throwing many picks or losing fumbles. All of the sudden (maybe it was the oline maybe injuries) he started throwing a bunch of picks and looked lost before he got hurt. Im kind of shocked the Eagles stuck with him.

I still think he has a CHANCE to have a good outing every now and then when he is playing an inexperienced, or slow defense,but people wanting to see the Mike Vick of the 2010 are going to be disappoint.

It stings all that much more.

With almost certainty that Wallace is gone the Steelers need to draft Austin if he is there.

@McShay13: WVU WR/RS Tavon Austin might be the quickest human being I've ever studied on tape...

Vick never really had decision making, but in his defense (kind of) the Oline is terrible, anyone would look bad back there.

I think the reason the Oline waited to late to reshuffle was because McKinney cannot stay on the field for a full season anymore.

I'm surprised you don't care about Kruger, I thought he was one of the best players on that D.

Last July I was screaming for essentially the line that the Ravens used through the playoffs. Oher is a shitty LT but a respectable RT. Yanda is a beast. There was no one to play center worth a damn other than Birk. McKinney was fine at LT in 2011. Problem was, FatMac came in to camp at about 400 lbs. Having seen a LT with no drive to stay in shape previously (Gaither), I was very worried he could make it half a year, if that. FatMac got himself into just good enough shape to play and coupled with injuries to Reid, Harewood, etc...well, obviously the stars were in alignment for his decent play coming into January. I worry about his motivation, except he owes a brinks truck full of money to creditors and strip club owners. Losing him won't kill me as I think there are options. His return is a proverbial 50/50 on maybe a 1 year deal.

As far as Kruger is concerned, he is just going to command too much cash on the market to worry about. When he was drafted, his size and weight were a real issue. The Ravens tinkered with him gaining and losing weight to find a role. While he came on this year and I like his motor, he had a pretty specific role and Courtney Upshaw can fill it adequately. I really like Upshaw and his upside. I'm ok with Kruger going. If Ozzie can figure out something, great, but I'm all but certain his price will be too high on the market.

Probably keep Ellerbee and lose Cary and Kruger.

He was in the dog house due to preseason and camp. We've seen what happens.

So word is Percy Harvin is on the trading block? He's always been a knucklehead but I haven't followed his off-field shit. What's the latest that makes this sound like a good idea? Dude was pretty damn great this year before getting hurt. Like, he made Christian Ponder look actually good.

Isn't he reported to be the most well hidden locker room cancer in the league?

I would be a pretty big cancer if Ponder was my QB and his backup can do little more than run the option.

Yeah, I just want some specifics. I'd hate for him to be the next TO, he's a blast to watch.

I read something about him throwing a weight at Brad Childress. But seriously...it's Brad Childress. Fucker absolutely deserved it.
