    As many have said, the Eagles like the Skins wouldn't have a chance for Peyton. He doesn't want to play in the NFC east and go up against Eli.

    On the flip side, Peyton could audible better plays at the line than Andy could ever come up with.

    3 First round Picks for RGIII?? thats insane but you have to compete. Grossman will not bring you a championship. Guess you have to start somewhere. I support what ever the eagles decide to do. If we grab a DT round 1, or a MLB or WR. I feel like our offense puts more pressure on our defense so i would strengthen our WR core with Michael floyd. Maybe pick up TE dallas clark from the colts so we can have two dominate TE's. Thats all we need offensively in my opinion.

    Peyton's career is over, I have had nerve issues and been in and out of physical therapy for the last 10 years. It is amazingly hard to get a damaged/destroyed nerve to function again just so your functionally, let alone function at a professional level.
