Eagles Claim Lamar Gordon

Gordon got beat out in Miami by Sammy Morris...now what does that tell you? The guy is soft. Good riddance.

Hahaha Sammy played alright in Buffalo but is only a good back up.

well I think if westy goes down, we will see moats start, gordon spell. I think it is a good situation.

reid made a bad transaction -- simineou. terrible.

Didn't he give up a 4th round pick for Simoneau? It was the very end of the 4th round too.

That same year they traded AJ Feeley for a 2nd rounder. They could afford to give up a late 4th for a LB when they really needed LBs.

a high second-rounder too... thanks a lot, Miami...

well, I should have said that the player they acquired was bad, not that the transaction in and of itself is bad.

gordon seemed allright with the rams. Dolphins kinda suck on o. I would bet on more of the former than the latter as far as the eagles are concerned.

the truly special backs can succeed almost anywhere, the more human ones need help. good thing the eagles don't need gordon to be awesome, just serviceable.

Think this will lower Westbrooks value at all?

[eaglesrule]

no, not in any real sense. gordon can't cath, and buckhalter/levens or whomever else they brought in were probably taking some goalline carries and clock killing carries anyway.

[loosechange75]

this will not lower westbrooks value at all though this is great news for us eagle fans

[ralik]

what does this do for moats? is he just useless now or will he start if westy goes down?

[eaglesrule]

i think moats is probably useless froma fantasy perspective. real life, I think moats would probably be "the replacement" for westbrook in the event something happens. but then again, who knows?

duce, westbrook and buckhalter all had worthwhile fantasy poitns the "threeagles" year.
