Yep. If/when we part ways with JJAW we can run some serious speed out there with him, Smith, Reagor and Hightower when he’s healthy. Hurts ability to extend will make covering that group challenging for more than 3-4 seconds
Gainwell and Scott are RB’s. I think Gainwell may keep Scott off the roster.
They will lose Jackson if they try to practice squad him. Apparently he’s been that good
Yep. He just looked good yesterday, very fluid with good hands. I was shocked to read this is his first year playing TE after being a QB.
I agree. Without Ertz, Rodgers makes sense as a veteran backup. With Ertz, Rodgers will never play so keep the young guy.
Outside of Sanders there’s no one from that side of the ball that I will even have on my list. Living here raises their value to the point where it doesn’t make sense. They’re all lottery tickets.
I kind of feel bad for him at this point. No coach that won a SB within 5 years would ever go without a new job right away.
I disagree with that. Reich obviously helped but Doug certainly led everyone that year and still called the plays. He just had better people around him to get him to focus on what worked. I think he let the win go to his head a bit. New normal. Writing a book. All that stuff you do when you're calling it a career after being an all time great. That was Doug's second head coaching season.
I'm viewing all except Sanders and (because of position scarcity) Goedert as bye-week fill-ins.Bigboy10182000 said:
Agree with this, Pederson beat Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, of course it could have gone to his head.
I'd be completely shocked if Scott wasn't on the roster. Even in the unlikely scenario where Gainwell wins the backup job, Scott is very useful on special teams.
At this point, I’m not sure that there isn’t a rule in the CBA that the Eagles are required to roster rodgers in perpetuity
Was just coming here to post the same. I’m VERY excited to see what this group can grow into with adequate coaching. There’s a lot of young talent with good attributes to tap into and I’m happy to see plays like this seemingly daily from one of them. Can’t wait until Hightower is healthy too so he can show off his ability
Wow I did not expect that. Watching his interview when he arrived, sounded like he was sticking around and going to have a role on the team. He must be totally done.
I noticed this during the Washington game this past weekend and thought the same thing. Green Goblin forever!!!!
If it's PPR, he's probably not. His catch rate fell significantly last year, he's struggling again in camp this year to catch the ball, and they have been working in Gainwell (who was a college stud as a receiving RB) more often with the first team on passing plays the last two weeks.

While I agree with the above, the potential is there to lead the league in rushing. Doug and his staff’s usage of Sanders has been borderline malpractice since we drafted him. I’m curious to see if they run him into the ground more given how cheap he is and how little he’s been used. If they do, 1500 rushing yards and 10+ TD’s are not out of the question IMOThe Noid said:
