Jason Cole of Yahoo sports is saying the Eagles are interested in Laron Landry...thoughts?

I'd be okay with Landry, not his biggest fan but he's an upgrade so it's hard not to be interested.

For some reason I think the Eagles wind up with Tulloch.

Landry is damaged goods out of the gate. He won't be ready to start the season, and may need a further surgery on his Achilles. Washington has no interest in retaining the dude, and they have dick at the position. I'll pass. If they go big with a an injury guy - give me Mario Williams.

I'd be okay with Tulloch. Saw red last offseason when they didn't even sniff around the dude. Lofton would be good too.

Yeah, he's a f-in stud in the box and a guy I would want to go balls out for multi year deal if he was healthy but he's not-- with an increased likelihood he won't be this year as well until he fixes his achilles.

That said, he's probably on a 1 year prove it deal anyway so throw a deal out there, see if it sticks, get him to camp and see if he makes it through.

I'd be ok with him, but the health is an issue like others have mentioned. He went and got super jacked this off-season. Have you seen the pics of him?

I would love Tulloch or Lofton.

I was thinking about Mario Williams coming here the other day. That would be an impressive signing.

landry has been freakishly jacked since college.

If Landry ever figures out how to stay healthy he'll be a player.

But really, do we want taterskins castoffs now?

hes terrible in pass coverage...so bad at turning....hed be an upgrade at ss obviously but im not all that interested in him even if healthy
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

With the way he has bulked up he will probably be even worse in pass coverage. I would be surprised if he signed with the Eagles.

Hopefully they make a run at Lofton.

Have we run the "moved to linebacker" joke into the ground yet, or can we give it another go here?

Sheil Kapedia suggested moving Graham inside to DT in the Inky this morning.

I actually laughed out loud when I read it.

We have many on here, including myself, that believe in re-animation...so yes, let's do it!
