Would be a great, cheap replacement for Dansby. Weird move by the eagles.

thought the same thing. I really think the cards make at least one signing before today is over among Rolle, Dansby, Porter, Witherspoon and Gibril Wilson

 

[Cardiac]

Witherspoon, yes please.

 

[CardinalChris]

At one time, but I have to admit I didn't watch him much last year. Anybody in the Philly area have an opinion

Yes please.

 

[Pariah]

huh. He made that defense much better as soon as he joined them.

Weird. Maybe it a cut and re-sign deal?

 

[PJ1]

I don't know. Didn't the lowly Rams give up on this guy. Not sure if he is still good.

 

[CardinalChris]

Thanks for the opinions. Sounds like he could be had at a reasonable price.

they traded him for a pick, thats not giving up, its gearing up for youth movement.

And I guess the Eagles are gearing up for a youth movement also?

 

[CardinalChris]

Yup. Was due to make 5 mil and would most likely be a backup to the return of Stewart Bradley.

no, they are saving money, and most people are saying making a STUPID move in letting him go. Witherspoon is a GOOD linebacker, if you don't know about him dont say stupid stuff like "rams gave up on him, must not be good"

Actually if the Rams trade him and he is released by the Eagles after his first year there I certainly can express concern as to why. And save your stupid comments for someone else. I started the post with I don't know. Ended it with not sure he is still good not "must not be good".

Although I am glad we have someone all knowing to tell us exactly what is going on.

he was released for the same reason as Rolle was released by the Cards. he still could be an eagle next year.

Although I am glad we have someone who doesn't know connecting dots that aren't there.

Until Dansby signs, we cannot do anything,,,

Why not?

Here in ST Louis the fans where pissed off and confused when Witherspoon was traded. He was there leading tackler and team leader on defense.

 

[Chopper0080]

I really like what Witherspoon brings to the table. He is a tough grinder that hits like a truck. This guy is the definition of a linebacker. I would love to sign him, but I wonder if he is too small to play inside. He is a very underrated linebacker.

He was traded from the Rams so they could get compensation and he could play for a contender...class move actually.

I think this means that the slight chance of Sean Weatherspoon being there at #26 has vanished.
