Bleeding Green Nation :: Eagles release Jeremiah Trotter

I'm on the fence here . . . and this is my specialty. I'ld love to have the Axeman in here from 2 years ago. But now? Worrisome issues in regard to knees, health, catching up with the playbook this late into camp, playing back-up (behind Mark Simoneau AGAIN, no less), and why the Eagles have parted ways with him. Trotter from 2004 - 2005 would be a Pro-Bowl MLB run-stopping machine for us. Some of you guys might be right, that bringing him in would instantly make him the best and most experienced MLB on the roster, but would it be good for the team and the chemistry? I don't see Payton pulling the trigger on this one.
