For anyone curious, word I've heard out of Eagles camp is that Vince Young is really struggling...while in Houston Matt Leinart is dominating

I'm really surprised by the Steve Smith signing especially after reading this earlier today.

Wasn't SS a restricted free agent? What's the comp? And if he's unrestricted look out, this easily puts the Eagles' receiving corps over the top. When healthy dude catches everything thrown his way.

:frusty:

really disappointing we couldnt talk him into coming into camp. Damn he'd have a better chance to get on the field.

I am stunned the Iggles signed Smith. I wonder if this has anything to do with Maclin's health.

The Iggles strangely have done little with their OL other than signing Harris. They need help up front. The best WR's in the world don't matter when Vick is in a cast and Young is on his back.

I refuse to buy the Iggles' hype even with this signing.

No, actually that is the only person the Eagles haven't signed.

Straight up trade: John Beck for Matt Leinart? Trading a back up for a franchise quarterback?

And by franchise quarterback I mean John Beck.

Man I hope you're right. So in other words you think they're following the Vinny Cerrato Official Method of Team Building: Get skill position players first and neglect the offensive line until it ends up costing you big time.

No no. I didn't neglect the offensive line. I drafted Chris Samuels in 2000. And people don't realize this but Malcolm Kelly was an underrated blocker coming out of college.

There are at least a few people who say the Eagles have serious holes in key areas to really do much damage...I'd like to think they're right
