Worth checking out. I feel like we'll actually be good enough at CB though that we don't want to be giving up other assets for that position. But if he comes cheap sure.

The price being key of course... One thing, his size doesn't seem to match up with what SMs looking for.



The Miami Herald's Armando Salguero reports the Eagles are "willing to trade" slot CB Brandon Boykin.

Boykin is another Andy Reid carryover, and coach Chip Kelly is intent on building the Eagles his way. The former fourth-round pick is just 24 and has finished second and 19th, respectively, in PFF's cornerback rankings each of the past two seasons. At 5'10/185, he's a slot corner-only, but a good one. Salguero mentions the Dolphins as a team that would have interest in Boykin.

Media pundits stirring the proverbial pot... But if it happened...YIKES!

With Morris on hand, the team’s biggest need would be for a back with strong skills in the passing game. Keim reports that the team has expressed interest in former Saint Pierre Thomas, who would seem to fit the bill based on his role in New Orleans. Per Keim, though, they’ll likely wait to see what happens with the draft before taking any action with the veteran free agent.

Good Luck with that Bears.

John Keim was on ESPN 980 today saying that we might be looking at Pierre Thomas. Really?

Yeah, here was the blurb I posted above about it.

HAHAHAHA miles Austin.

Bit of a head scratcher to me. But they do need depth and competition at WR. If he doesn't get injured, he's a talented player. Course you could say that about most of the signings from Philly this year in FA.

Right.

If it isn't Bradford's knees, or Austin's hamstrings, or demarco Murray's take-your-pick, it's Kiko Alonso's.

God bless Chip Kelly!

Still hasn't found a home. Speculation is price and questions regarding a torn labrum.

The 26-year-old Ridley has recently met with the Jets and Dolphins. He spent his first four NFL seasons with New England.

Ridley rushed for 2,817 yards and 22 touchdowns on 649 carries for the Patriots from 2011 through 2014, adding 23 catches for 146 yards.

A 25-game starter with New England, Ridley (5-11, 220) would provide depth behind starter Alfred Morris in Washington. Though Ridley has averaged a solid 4.3 yards per rush in his career, he has struggled with fumbles at times, and he comes off an ACL tear in October.
