Eagles sign Walter Thurman cb from Oregon

[Taz]

former duck coming off injurt

 

[WIZ]

He was pretty good at Seattle. Got hurt last year but he can play.

 

[Susky]

Another scratch and dent special.

 

[WIZ]

Yeah does Chip think injuries are nothing in today's NFL or what? I mean every guy has a history.

 

[Rey]

I wanted Thurmond last year when the Giants got him ... solid addition in my opinion; can play inside or out. I'm good with our CB's right now. If we can land a Safety now we're set in our 2ndary.

 

[Rey]

Thurmond had a Pec injury ... shouldn't affect his play at all if healed.

 

[ctc]

His history says he's just a body.

 

[Wings]

I agree solid addition cheap....I wanted him bad last year.

 

[greenfever]

Nothing too right home about but I'll take these two corners over last year's any day of the week

 

[PhillyGreen]

If a guy can actually play in the NFL who gives a fuck where he went to college. If it will get the Eagles a Superbowl he can sign the entire Oregon roster for all I care.

It was mentioned that Pete Carol did the same thing in Seattle. He added something like 10 USC players. Just saying..

It makes perfect sense to add players that you know can play in your system. Some just seem to look for reasons to complain. Now if these guys happened to suck I can see the complaint.

This mfer thinks he's running a junkyard, not an NFL team...

Eagles new theme song:

Pete Carol also didn't dismiss all his star players.

Unless I am mistaken Pet Caroll did happen to get rid of his problem children.

Because Jmac,djax and McCoy sucked so bad in his system? OK Buddy.

Pro bowl caliber players? Did you consider Jmac and McCoy and foles problem children?

Many people here wanted McCoy gone. I was not one of them and was suprised by the trade but also understood it. He was not worth the money he was asking and I doubt many people here disputed that and people were very happy about the trade.

Jeremy Maclin is a good received and the fatman paid too much for him. I doubt Maclin is going to duplicate last years performance. Up until Chips "system" Maclin did not put up any pro bowl numbers. He also has a injury history but the hypocracy here does not allow that to come into play.

Bradford is better than Foles and if he does pan out then it will not cost us near as much. If I read the parameters correctly the deal is contingent on a lot of things. Unless Bradford starts 8 games the Rams owe us a pick in 2016 and not the other way around.

Djax - I loved him but he was a problem child.
Maclin - They wanted him back but KC over paid him.
McCoy - Wouldn't hit the hole and run the way Chip needed him to. Chip got tired of 2 and 12!
Foles - I will never buy a Jersey again!!!! That tells you how much I liked him but even I will admit the Foles of last year has a ways to go.

Not saying I like having all of them gone but a lot of teams can say this.
