I don't think Woodson would want to come here... he's on his last leg in the NFL and we are picking 4th in the draft. Just saying'

We'd get one or two years out of Woodson at best. Then we'd be back to square one.

>>mwh: I'll own wanting to have Brett Favre play in Philly as Vick's back-up instead of Vince Young?

Why?

Simple. I wanted a player with the stones to confront MM about his nonsensical calls and have the experience to audible an entire game if necessary...and not care if it got him in hot water.

Thank you Woody. Knew I liked you for some reason.

Yeah, Favre would have slugged MM and taken AR's samich.

It's great to have Gamble back. Hopefully his first order of business is sitting down with Nnambi and being frank with him. Hopefully Nnambi doesn't beet around the bush and admits the obvious that he just gave up on the team last year; and in the process obviously stole $11.3 million from Lurie and the Eagles organization as well as $10 million the year b4. There are no excuses for him to give up and steal over $20 million so far. He's played for terrible teams in Oakland and still went to Pro Bowls all the time, he's not suffering any serious injuries and if a rookie like Boykin with no actual experience against all NFL teams and players can walk on the field understanding how to play on the Eagles D how can Nnambi honestly plead stupidity, confusion or lack of experience.
Over a hundred CB'S have played in games this past year and only 2 of them, probably players making around $200,000 a year, were nicer to opposing QB's. In passes thrown to CB's in the 2012 season Nnambi ranks 3rd in giving QB's their highest QB Rating in all passes he was clearly responsible for defending(according to Pro Football Focus). I thought Nnambi came to Philly with the reputation as 1 of the top, if not the top CB, QB's wanted to avoid throwing the ball towards. It's very hard to believe that Lurie(the Eagles organization) is paying Nnambi a salary when it clearly SEEMS like he's being payed by opposing QB's. I guess the good side of this is he's made a lot of opposing QB's appear very very good and boosted up their confidence as well. When they reflect on this season, playing against Nnambi, they'll think their the best QB's and should become tremendously better QB's in the future with this very real ego confidence enhancement presented by Nnnambi.
They say Nnambi has class(I'm a firm believer that actions speak louder than words) but will Nnambi show a tad bit of class, honor, dignity, pride or respect towards himself, Lurie, the Eagles organization, his teammates and all the Eagles fans; highly doubtful. I doubt he will charge into the building demanding that his contract be restructured let alone restructured the way it should be after flat out stealing 21.3 million dollars over the past 2 years. You really think he will try to do right by his crimes committed week after week, game after game, over the past 2 seasons and demand a restructured contract paying him the veteran minimum for the last three years of his present contract while giving the Eagles the right to cut or trade him at anytime without suffering any cap penalties? Nnambi obviously fools everyone into thinking he's a class act(don't forget moneys not an issue with him, as it is with the majority of NFL players; he has safe investments that are generating very nice profits) the same way he fooled everyone into thinking he's a shutdown CB a couple of years ago; all he really is is a straight up scam artist who's scammed and is still scamming Lurie and the Eagles organization. The only way for Gamble, Lurie and the Eagles organization to fix the problem is to explain to him that they could easily expose his real identity(character flaws) through various media outlets mainly in Nigeria and California; as well as discuss his issues to various leaders of nations and business leaders(nationally and internationally) when his name comes up. Not only would this reveal his true(negative) character, destroy his reputation, lose a lot of powerful/influential friendships but would also greatly damage his investments and finances.
Maybe he will come  around and do the right thing financially play his best football; if the Eagles just give him this little motivational talk to bring the best out of him.
