Heard he worked with the eagles today and wanted to get y'all's input on if he would be a potential good fit with his home town team. Guy has a lot of fight in him and I think would bring a lot to the table over here

just saw the article on twitter, eh?
honestly, after reading it and looking at the team. i say why not? but hes not ready yet anyway. so itd be another season probably. id hope we fixed our secondary problems by then (or are close to).

I don't know if he still has the speed for secondary but I'd love if they signed him to the practice squad, bulked him up, and gave him a try at OLB.

I've been trying to keep up with him and I agree that he's not 100% but he can't be worse off than our starters now. You could sign him pretty cheap I'd imagine because he just wants to be on the field. Money dosent seem like a top priority to him.

he ran a 4.8 last year while being 60%.

Roman "got caught by Sam Bradford" Harper has something to say.

Easy tiger. Dont join the crowd that automatically assumes an unproven rookie can come in and be amazing. especially one who almost lost his leg and hasnt played in 3 years.

You could place him anywhere and he would succeed in that position.

Yea please don't mistake me for one of those guys  . What I meant was get him cheap and see what he can do. Can't be worse than what we have and could possibly be better. Nobody knows. But given his freakish abilities, it wouldn't hurt to give him a shot.

A guy that hasn't played in a few years, or ever in the NFL, coming off of a serious injury that he isn't fully healed from couldn't be worse than current NFL players. You're right...

Who the hell knows. He might or might not be. I'd take him over Harper any day of the week. But that's just me

Welcome to the Rant 2008. I thought I'd never have to deal with that topic again.

He had a great workout but the docs wouldn't pass the leg yet as standing up a whole season. Will be actively seeking out second opinions.
