Man, with all the cap space the Eagles have they are really making a splash in free agency.  Not even any visits set up?  After the Bentley thing, I really hope they make a run at Hutchinson.  :D

They had targeted Joe J and Bentley but lost out on both.

I heard on the radio today that they offered Bentley like $17M total which was $13M less then Cleveland. I think Cleveland may have overpaid a bit, but that is what you have to do sometimes to get your guy I guess.

Philly is so done, and after the McNabb, then TO, situations along with the NAACP clowing McNabb, why would anyone want to play for that cheap franchise.  Lurie is making Bill Bidwell look like a compulsive gambler.

On Spoon

 

"Big Easy money: Panthers linebacker Will Witherspoon has an offer worth at least $11.5 million on the table from the St. Louis Rams, but he is expected to leave St. Louis and make a quick visit to New Orleans. With $16.9 million of room and more coming with the eventual release of quarterback Aaron Brooks, the Saints are considered big players in the early market, which is why Witherspoon and Drew Brees are on the first wave of Saints visits. The Panthers want to re-sign Witherspoon, but it's possible that he could command as much as $5.5 million a year and more than $11.5 million to sign."

 

Brees

 

The Saints may have the edge in signing San Diego Chargers quarterback Drew Brees. But they didn't make a deal good enough to preventing him from making a visit to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.

Dolphins coach Nick Saban and general manager Randy Mueller flew to Birmingham, Ala., to meet Brees and try to convince him to make a visit to Miami Sunday. The Saints also tried to sign him and still have a good chance.

 

Though the Chargers are still holding their last offer for Brees, there is virtually no chance he will consider it. Once Brees left the Chargers this week, he started looking for his new home.

 

After Brees makes his visit to the Dolphins, his future should be settled by Sunday night.

I agree to a point, but I think you are going alittle overboard. They did spend a ton of money two season ago on Owens & Kearse. You have a point on the McNabb thing. I think some players could look at the way McNabb handled himself with the T.O. situation and decide to go somewhere else. McNabb is not a leader plain & simple.
