It remains to be seen how the Sheppard sitation plays out. Al Harris wasn't a contract situation, he was the nickel corner and wanted to start, just like Rod Hood. It wasn't going to happen here. Duce, Simon, Vincent & Douglass all left the Eagles and proved they couldn't play anymore, so the Eagles were right to let them walk. I'll give you Trotter but his problem was being unhappy with the franchise tag. The Eagles didn't want to let him walk. I have no problem ripping the Eagles but you have to be fair.

The Eagles expect Andrews to report, eventually. They plan to talk to his agent about the issue on Saturday. By the way, I love Andrews as a player but I'd trade him for a top receiver in a second.

Who cares if he's moody.... 80% of the NFL is moody. You've got the self-medicating players, players who want a new contract before the ink dries on their old contract, wife-beaters, gun-toaters.... I’d want a great player + a good pick for Andrews. We’re in a division that’s loaded with pass rushers and he’s our best O-lineman (though he does need to work on his pass blocking). He’s also versatile enough to move to tackle…he’s got great feet. Who cares if he’s moody…. 80% of the NFL is moody.

It would be nice to know what the salary cap ramifications are for a trade of Andrews to the Bears. However as I understand it the Bears are about 1-2MM under the cap and probably will use that to give Hester a new contract. If Andrews salary was front loaded maybe a deal can be done especially if the Bears can lose Ricky Manning Jr.'s salary without much of a cap hit. Another are the Bears are thick at is LB so if the Eagles need help there maybe a deal is possible. For example Jamal Williams was ready to Briggs place and he apparently is NFL starter ready for WLB.

He IS our best lineman, but a move for either of those WRs whould be a big upgrade to the offense. As for Gargano, he's the best host on WIP - way better than the morning guys and a ton better than Eskin. Too bad for him he looks like Fred Flinstone on TV, or he'd have a big career in front of him on ESPN or NFLN.

Not a bad deal for him. It would suck for the Eagles because they would have shelled out $10.5 million for nothing. They could have just let him complete his rookie contract, franchise him and trade him and would have saved the money.

And you guys know how Andy loves his lineman. With McNabb finally healthy the las thing we need to do is to remove his greatest protecter. the trades for andrews on here are utterly ridiculous. he is one of the very best offensive lineman in the game today.

He made everyone think it was a career threatening situation--I'm not sure if he missed a regular season game due to it. The Eagles were not happy having to put out those fires. Having said that--you just don't give away a good guard. Remember last summer when he had the ankle problem and got really emotional about that??
