Eagles sign 6'9" Wide Reciever

This ought to be interesting. The Eagles signed the tallest WR in history - a 6'9" behemoth. The guy was a star for Army years ago, but has been in the military for the last 4 years doing three stints in Afghanistan. For that reason, I give the Eagles credit for giving a soldier a shot at the big time. However, I hope we don't try to cover him with a 5'7" CB.

I remember this guy, and I wanted to draft him. Didn't know he was going on with his service. Slap that kid at TE and watch him dominate. I don't know how fast he is, but at 277 lbs I don't think he's a speed demon, but he is a mismatch for anyone and should be able to hold his own blocking.

Eagles are turning him into a defensive lineman

 

As a defensive lineman I have to wonder if his center of gravity is just too high to be effective.

 

They should turn him into a linebacker, have him stand three feet behind the defensive line, bat down or catch everything in front of the QB. At his height you figure he can takeaway at least 90 degrees of passing lane.

Yeah they are playing him on the d-line.

 

 

and he wasn't just "in the army" he was a ranger.

So the defense plays the defense now?, grow a brain. :unsure:

 

For the Giants?

 

Yes.

 

Your team's offensive line is horrible, so I already know it won't be them.

 

 

 

Grow a labido, your boyfriend misses it. :LMAO:
