NFL Offseason Thread: March 3, 2011. A date which will live in infamy.

Weird. He'll probably start the season on the PUP from his microfracture, and the Eagles don't have a need for a top 2 receiver.

[Tyche]

Well, they already have one of the best WR units in the NFL, so they can afford to wait. He's young.

*assuming Maclin is OK

[Demosthenes11]

eagles dont have a good #1. they need a big presence

[Moss]

you should be getting pot kettled so hard right now. good choice on going after a cowboys fan, protected by the mob mentality and hatred for common idiots.

those posts i quoted apply to basically everything you say about the pats though.

oh snap lol

Algernon Darius Crumpler is a FA, Vick to Alge all day and all night(their collective nickname can be ADAAN)

[Chun Liroy]

Eagles sign Steve Smith NYG

Ok now they're just destined to fail. So now what do the Giants have? Lost Boss and Steve Smith... So they have mario manningham and.... that other guy I forgot what it was but I'm pretty sure it was some jungle name.

What determines a no1?

Wouldn't it be that guy who defenses game plan around, regardless of X, Y, or Z?

[Penthesilea]

Hakeem nicks.

Yeah like Penth said, Nicks and Manningham. That is a solid 1-2.

If you are implying D-Jax works as your #1 I agree with you. He definitely isn't a prototypical #1 receiver though since he isn't a go-to guy.

[Demosthenes11]

wrong verbage I guess, but what moss said. When the game is on the line and you have to have a drive, Djax is not a 5 reception in a drive receiver or a "go up and get it" guy

That's what I was getting at, but the eagle's don't have a go to guy anyways. Maclin is their best all around receiver, he didn't play in the last game against the cowboys other than 1 series and almost broke 1000 yds with approx. 10 TDs. DeSean had over 1000yds, Celek, Avant, and Shady each had 500+ yds. The only thing lacking is someone vertical for red zone fades, which could be 2nd year guy Riley Cooper (they just cut DeAndre Brown, a 6'6 233 monster)

[Militant]

Wow... wtf is goin on in here... smith.. really? I used to have faith in Jerry Reese.. not anymore.

[Moss]

If Maclin can improve the the little things like run really tight routes he could be a true #1 as a Reggie Wayne type

[Headspace]

Wow... wtf is goin on in here... smith.. really? I used to have faith in Jerry Reese.. not anymore.

Lol

[Militant]

Reese should be demoted to a scout or some sort of talent evaluator, he's done pretty well with drafts, but hes be awful as far as making personal moves.

edit: check out steve smith's facebook page, its hilarious.

Supposedly the Cowboys got this guy from that one track star college (I think Demos mentioned something about someone on pats from there). 6'3 4.34 40 or something with good hands. He soudns promising.

[Cleverness]

Lol

Don't laugh, we're not use to dealing with the retardness that is Mike Brown like you!

But yea that news on Smith is fucking terrible. We still have a good duo with Manningham/Nicks but if 1 gets injured that'll just make it easier for defenses to know where to put their guys. Seriously dunno wtf the Giants are doing this offseason.

You can't knock how clutch reese has been in the draft, but seriously the guy does fucking jack shit year in and year out as far as improving the team otherwise. He never wants to spend money on anyone, expects all these promising guys to take home-town discounts, etc. Let's face it, behind Welker, up until he tore his knee up, Smith was the 2nd best possession WR in the game. Welker came back strong but he didn't have micro-fracture surgery iirc. I really have no idea what the fuck they are doing. I mean I get the fact they're up against the cap, but like, I dunno I feel like something could have been done. For fuck sakes can't eli restructure or something?
