Leave it to Les Bowen to get the scoop when no one else can.

[Feva]

He'll be in Eagle Green by the weekend.

[Geowhizzer]

I've heard that he IS at the NovaCare Center as we speak write type.

John Murphy, of Yahoo Sports, reports Denver Broncos WR Ashley Lelie has been mentioned as part of a potential three-team trade involving the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots, according to a league source. Lelie would go the Patriots while the Broncos would receive Falcons RB T.J. Duckett and Patriots TE Daniel Graham. The Falcons would receive draft choices from both teams. Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan has denied there is a trade in the works involving Lelie.

I read somewhere that John Murphy of Yahoo Sports reported a potential 3 team deal involving Atlanta, New England, and Denver.

Seriously..this thread belongs in Rest of the NFL.  Come on.

I read the same thing.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I read that the Broncos were ready to deal Lelie for a message board poster named "Philly Forever" until said poster dropped off the grid.  Bummer.

[Father Demon]

Not sure if this is mentioned somewhere else.  I don't have a link for the actual quotes, because I stole this info from another (non-Eagles) board.

a rumor regarding Lelie and the Broncos and Iggles.



Omar (Colo Springs): Will the Broncos keep a headache like Lelie around the whole year? Have they reduced their asking price.

SportsNation John Clayton: (4:31 PM ET ) Lelie will be traded within 10 days if not sooner. He won't be a Denver problem. I'm sure in the end Mike Shanahan will be reasonable.

Angelo (Philadelphia): Will the Eagles make a move to go after Lelie or are they confident in that subpar set of receivers they currently own?

John Clayton: (4:39 PM ET ) The Eagles should be one of the three teams in on Lelie. He may not be a No. 1 guy, but he's a talent and he would have a great quarterback in Donovan McNabb

So, the questions:

a) Should the Eagles try to trade for Lelie?
b) What would they have to offer Denver to get it done?

Someone please launch this thread to Pluto.

Please?

Pretty please??

I've probably said this before...but while Lelie certainly has some talent, he's been the most inconsistent starting receiver I've ever seen.  If he came here, I think people would come to hate him immediately.

Like I've said, he's oddly similar to Pinkston.  He is very slightly better at pretty much everything and obviously more healthy, but his attitude obviously leaves something to be desired.

That said, I'd trade Pinkston for him one-for-one with teh quickness.
