You got a good player and your team got better, but you overpaid. But this is the time of year when almost everyone overpays for that missing ingredient or overpays to fill a gaping hole somewhere, so no big deal really. We overpaid for several players on our team. |

You can say that again Danno as far as overpaying on defense. That is why I can see a several people being let go hopefully before the hammer comes down from goodell. Ellis should be one of them. Question is who is left standing and who are we going to replace Harper with. Maybe move Jenkins there but again we dont know if he will be a casuality also. wish we could have made a move at SS but there are just so many needs.

We can not move him. Ellis, thats a different story. The fact that he hasn't restructured may be a sign that he's a goner if we can get a couple more DT's on board either thru the draft or remaining free-agency. |

Notice the good was in quotations. It was more indicating sarcasm than an actual quote. Thing is, his performance was declining. Had we gotten him last year (the Lions), he would have fit right in with what our current CB's did. As you guys know from when we played one another, that wasn't much

He's been marginal at best in Philly and a cancer due to his selfishness. Falcons just got problems and no better at that position.
Bad for them, great for Drew! |
