Give me one good reason… http://www.reclinergm.com/boldin-to-the-eagles-give-me-one-good-reason/ Thu, 09 Feb 2012 03:41:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2 By: Billy http://www.reclinergm.com/boldin-to-the-eagles-give-me-one-good-reason/#comment-4568 Billy Thu, 04 Sep 2008 15:32:44 +0000 http://www.reclinergm.com/?p=465#comment-4568 Another year & here we go again, #1 WR as a definite need! I agree with most of the posts, that we only have a window this year & next year? i.e. McNabb & Westbrook of being a strong candidate for the NFC Champoinship, so why not package our extra #1 draft pick w/Lito and/or Brown and finally get a #1 or solid #2 WR and finally have a "real" shot in the playoffs? Curtis with his injury and even Reggie Brown (for 4 weeks+) will not be truly effective till later in the year, but this might be too late to help the team. My prediction w/o a solid help at WR 8-8 or 9-7 (out of playoffs) but with a Boldin, Williams or #2 WR a definite 11-5 or better (playoffs or division title)!! It will open the other #3 & #4 receivers we have now, with Boldin or William as a real threat, like T.O. did when they was their legit #1 WR.  HOW OBVIOUS DOES IT TAKE FOR THIS POMPOUS MANAGEMENT TO SEE THIS!?!?!? AT LEAST GIVE MCNABB A LEGIT #1 or SOLID #2 (JOEY GALLOWAY FOR E.G.) WR PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! I am going to the Rams game this Sunday, so we'll see if the run defense can stop Jackson (should be an upgrade from last year the LB crew is more solid - love Mays  he is a legit hitter (future star LB!!!). Another concern I have this year is the health of Dawkins, and of course Westbrook, let's hope Lorenzo Booker & Hunt are actually used effectively!! E-A-G-L-E-S...EAGLES!!

Maybe the key is 2 jettison players who wont make it or are not expected 2 be traded(L.J?) Since they made the "genius" decision 2 convert hunt they should 2 combine Buckhalter and Moats...basically I 'm saying if they continue to diminish the career of McNabb by giving him a receiver ONCE in his pro life they will bring the wrath of a city upon them...or at least an angry email!

Trading that package and a number one would be steep.  Still, can you imagine Bouldin as the #1, Basket/Avant as the 2, and Jackson exploiting the slot?  It'd be a big big upgrade. And Bouldin's just the type to take those short passes and muscle something out of them. Here's hoping - GO BIRDS!

I think this is the perfect oppurtunity to give Usain Bolt a try out.
