Not so fast JS ... Philly still doesn't play sound defense. I expect the Redskins to be better in that division.

He will come back to bite us. This is the first time I think Loomis made a big mistake.

Not me, we don't sigh Byrd without Sproles' cap savings.

Guy who wasn't nearly as elusive as past years and had the worst punt return average in the league or ball hawking turnover machine for our turnover needy defense

I know which one I'd prefer to have, loomis made the right choice

The 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray had a 0-60 time of 6.3 seconds. <------ Badazz sports car.

Jump to today and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 has a 0-60 of 4.5 seconds.

Sometimes you have to let things go to win.

Somehow I think you have confused 5th round pick with 5th overall pick?

5th round has as many possibilities as throwing dice. Will have to wait and see.
