My son, an Eagles fan, is telling me this trade was almost Woods for McCoy, they settled on Kiko in the end. He also says that Chip Kelly still has his sights set on Woods which kind of makes the Harvin pickup so relevant.

Think its about time we change the title and remove "to" since the trade has already happened?

This here says they actually wanted Woods And Kiko for McCoy. Looks like Whaley said NFW

I guess "we will take either" and the bills saying "ok take this one" amounts to "NFW"???

 

Maybe I'm reading that too much like you think it's now clear he's untouchable

That report seemed preposterous to me. I imagine it came from some interview where Chip Kelly or some Eagles official told a reporter something like, "We talked to them about Woods and Alonzo" and they were implying either or, and the reporter thought that meant for both. It just seems laughable that they would ask seriously for both of them. Whaley would have laughed and said, then we want McCoy and Mathis.

yea that would be a pretty quick come down to go from two young potential stars to cutting it in half within 30 minutes. i guess its possible they said "what the heck, lets try something crazy" but i dont think it was serious even if it actually happened. i tend to agree with how you read it.

Even with Harvin, I am not so sure I would want the Eagles to still be pursuing Woods. I'm not sure what they could give us to make it worth it, but I like our WR's the way they are now. Also Whaley is talking about picking up another veteran WR for depth, so I don't think he is high on letting any of the WRs go either.

On the other hand, maybe that means he is going to deal Woods. Who knows.

Not until there is an official presser.

So there's still a chance that we can keep Kiko - even though we've signed Shady to a new deal?

 

So, you're saying we have a chance?

i wonder if the lack of an announcement of something 100% official is because there is something going on that Alonso must be fully cleared?
