re: Russell Shepard signed with the Eagles before the NFL draft ended

I don't believe what Russell is saying. He may have been speaking with the Eagles but he didn't sign a contract prior to the drafts conclusion.

And if he really had teams calling him in the 6th round and if he really told those teams that he had already signed a deal with the Eagles, then we wouldn't have found out about this via a radio interview, we would have found out about this because teams would have reported the Eagles so fast.

Dude is dumb and likes to hear himself talk, dangerous combination.

He said it. Muscona questioned him in disbelief and Shephard said it again. I don't believe that happened but I know what Shephard said. He also stated he "took himself off the board" after speaking to the eagles in round 5. I don't think that is even possible. Sounds like he wanted people to think he was in great demand.
