    Not happy in philly. Seeking a new contract and a new team.

    He just turned 27 years old! He has been to 2 pro bowls was once 1st team all pro.

    His contract signed in 04 is for 8 years at $3.30M a year. We could probably sew him up for around 50% more than that. Something like a 4 year $20M deal with an $8-9M SB.

    According to john clayton the asking price will be at least a 2nd rd pick and maybe a 2nd and 5th. Picks the eagles can't use until 09.

    I say we do it especially since we didn't draft a top corner. This could take our defense to a higher level and he is still just in the middle of his career..

    I would love to have him on the team, however, I think he wouldn't come at a price our cheap GM would like...

    plus, they're still milking Harper for all he's worth

    I wouldn't mind having him, but I wonder whose spot he would take. He'd clearly be our #1 corner, but who sits? Harper or Finnegan?

    Would be an awesome pickup. Seriously doubt it happens.

    Thought so...I just have a hard time seeing Harper being content as a backup.

    I hear he wants a deal like Samuel got. Somewhere around $10 million a season. Not likely going to get that from us.
