Eagles were punked

[stirs]

With two tackles about 35 yrs old and one just having the microfracture surgery, do you think they now regret not taking Otah themselves last season? Especially with our backups getting big money now. The FA OT pool is thin. Even Pittsburgh had to tag underacheiver Starks because there is nothing out there to be had.

Definate lack of foresight on their behalf.

How do you know they won't land a solid player with our 1st rounder and make us look worse? Otah has been great, but who go the better deal has yet to play out.

I think this should be posted under the forum NFL Central.

It's easy to say the Eagles should've taken Otah, but I don't agree with that because he's a bad fit for their style of play. They pass the ball like 50 times a game and rarely run the rock.

Two rookie bookends?

Donovan will love that.

We got the better end of the deal because we got what we wanted when we wanted it. End of discussion.

You guys do realize that this years draft has great talent at OT this year, they will draft one of those.

Also you do realize they made it further in the playoffs than us right?

Yea so I don't see why they would feel punked by this move at all.

the winner in these matters take years to emerge...

We won't know until they use our pick in this year's draft.

[pantherclaw]

They still have that first round pick. So how can anyone say the eagles got the bad end of the deal.

[stirs]

All I am saying is that the Eagles should have been salivating over Otah for their own pick. We took it from them and they didn't have the foresight to look at FA for this season. When Omalye gets big money, the well is dry. They could end up with bookend rookies. what a thought.

[CLTPanther]

Again, they could land a gem with our pick that turns out to be the biggest start at his position in history. You keep assuming they take an OT. What if they land one of the greatest RB's of all time. Are we still the winner? Your argument is not valid.
