So who's going to be the QB up in Buffalo?

 

[Peep Game]

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooh Eagles only way to fix this is if you land Peterson or Murray. Unless Dallas purposely ran Murray's legs off just to let him go.

not even mad Shady got traded.... because I don't like finesse backs

BUT...

traded STRAIGHT UP for a dude that didn't even play.....

please for the love of Christ someone make sense of this.

Chris Polk and Sproles can get the job done IMO.... Sproles was more valuable than McCoy last season, there's no debating that if you really watched Eagles games

Heads up Eagles bruhs

This lady might be in need of some new gear in the near future

Eagles won this trade..I think they'll move up for MM8 and draft rb middle round

 

[stillin729]

Nah. They'll try to defend the move.

try to defend what? you got rid of $11.9 million dollars for a RB whose production dropped off 33% in a year when the best line wasn't intact anymore and got a potential stud LB in return

this was Shady's last year in an Eagles uniform regardless with that salary, not too much to defend really

 

[ny mavurs]

Thought my boy was lying when he told me about this trade

 

[licensed to ball]

His production dropped 33% because his usage dropped 33%

Let's just not mention the fact that Polk got goal line carries while Sproles got 3rd downs while criticizing his production now.

One minute in your avy, the next minute he's supposedly a bum

did I say he was a bum? pretty sure those words never came out of my mouth

RB is the most replaceable position in the NFL, you must not have watched many Eagles games because Polk didn't start getting goal line carries until late in the season when Shady couldn't get the ball in

Nah. They'll try to defend the move.

Why? They freed cap space by letting him go. Its a great running back class in this upcoming draft. And they received an elite MLB prospect on a rookie deal.

 

[trueprada]

for another duck 

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

Let's not forget Shady only saw 37 targets out the backfield, compared to 65 the year before. QB situation wasn't all that great either. Can't put that 33% drop in production all on him.
