Everybody will be on in Mario in FA. Everyone seemed to have the teams for Aso narrowed down last year and then the Eagles came out of nowhere, nobody even know they had interest. Just can't shrink the market for the top FA so easily.

No, Alot of people knew the Eagles had interest. It was either going to be the Eagles or Jets or back at home with the Raiders.

Mario isn't going have alot of teams inline for him. You do know hes going to command the highest paid contract right? More than Peppers got. It'll be Seattle, Chargers, Possibly NE, Jax, and maybe 1 or 2 shocker teams.. Other then that.. its tapped.

Do you pay attention?

I didn't say they would trade back and take Kirkpatrick. I said that if they were to take any CB, it'd prolly be Kirkpatrick because he fits their style of defense. Hes like the perfect Tampa/Cover 2 CB.

I still think like any team who gets a new HC.. they will address the trenches.. It'll be Poe or Brockers or even Still. Don't think they'll go CB when they can get Finnegan or even Carr in FA.
Do you pay attention?

We don't know what the Bucs are going to run. Sheridan was reported as saying he wanted to keep the 43 defense, but wanted to apply a more aggressive approach of getting after the QB. Who knows what the scheme will be at this point in time under Schiano in Tampa.

Regardless, Mo can play and is scheme diverse for anything in the NFL. He has the size, range and athletic ability to make plays no matter the defense.

I wish Mario would go to Buffalo.

Mario, Kyle Williams and Dareus would be disgusting.

He plans to run an agressive 4-3 scheme. Only thing that will change from the past are Blitz packages and etc.. not coverages. Much like the Jags had in 2008 when Gregg Williams became the DC. They called it the same thing, still ran the Cover 2 and just blitzed more.

There was not a single report out there that the Eagles were in on Nnamdi until it was basically a done deal that he was going there. The day he signed it was rumored all day that it was between the Jets and the Cowboys and maybe another team that wasn't the Eagles, I don't remember. Before that day there were a lot of teams in on him, not a single person had him linked to the Eagles at all.

I remember alot of people had him going to the Eagles, ESPN had Jersey switches of him going to the Eagles and everything. It was Eagles, Cowboys (forgot about them), Jets and Raiders (Longshot) . Eagles werent some surprise team.

What makes the move even more surprising is that the Eagles weren't a part of the early courting of Asomugha. In fact, Roseman said Philadelphia entered negotiations "very late."

It was well-known after the signing that the Eagles weren't in on Nnamdi until the very end.
