It's bad news. Now the Eagles have their own Allen Iverson.

I'll say at first I was 100% against this guy and I never thought it would happen. However, I've kind of come around on it. Leave the talent and ability out of it, that's a given.
Still, he's an amazing competitor and I've never heard of him dogging it in practice, camp, etc. He's supposedly incredibly dedicated to the game (we'll find out for sure soon enough) and that's a major differentiator between him and AI.
The other thing that helped turn me, is that BFA (Big Fat Andy) and Tom Heckert have been shrewd enough with their personel decisions that we've been to the NFC Championship game 3 years in a row and won more games than any other team during that period of time. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt until they prove me wrong.
If Owl_Eagle were in their spot, would this happen??? No, I wouldn't touch him. But I've also proven it to myself that they know A LOT more about football than I do, so I'll defer to them. I really hope this isn't a panic move and that they know something I don't (obviously they know more about him than we do) and they've got a solid track record.
