At least Dixon is young and has potential. Too bad.

I hope Dixon sucks with the Eagles, otherwise I'd feel even worse. Wouldn't have minded if he went to the Raiders or someone else...

So letting go of Dixon means there's no youth on the line? We still have younger guys like Golston, Montgomery, Alexander, Jarmon, and Orakpo.

There are guys like Dixon all over the place. Not a huge loss to me.
