Yeah Wynn was totatally worth losing a guy that showed promise...I'm so sick of Blache and his number 4 ranked D.

I didnt see the article though, even after clicking on the Eagles rumours...was it buried in the Vick article or something shal?

[Skinz4lyfe]

Blache kept Wynn because he was more familiar w/him? What about upside? Talent? Doesn't that account for anything? I seriously doubt if we cut Wynn we could have missed much. Did he even play this preseason? Geez!!

Gotcha well if we're lucky they'll put him on the ps and when Daniels/Wynn break down we can sign him back lol.

Damn....I hope the best for you Antonio, but I do NOT like this move. I hate that we lost out for Dixon.

One of the young guys who actually flashed some good potential and because Blache is an old timer who only feels comfortable around other lazy old timers like Wynn this kinda crap happens.

what the hell does Wynn do any good anyway. He's a bum. Blache did him a favor Blache knows he's out after this season and wanted to let an old buddy pick up one last paycheck.

when Blache says he doen't get to know rookies he's basically saying he doesn't want anything to do with them. I see why the league is trending to younger more energetic coaches these geezers with their ingrained philosphies ruin teams.

[HanburgerBum]

I have up to now been willing to let Blache call the shots as to the personnel makeup of the defense. But, keeping Wynn and exposing a rookie like Dixon with some promise to waivers is just about the last straw.

With Jarmon looking like a young player capable of starting at this level, why on earth was Wynn kept? Daniels is a run stuffer at DE. Just how many of these old-fart, statue-like DEs does one team need? Just how many old-fart DEs can we put on the field at one time?

Of course, Buges is not entirely blameless either. Why were 5 backup Olinemen of the caliber of ours kept? Except for Rhinehart, the other four were claim-proof and were just one phone call away. Why not carry one less Olineman to make room for Dixon?

And, Jerry Gray, why carry 6 corners that included Westbrook? Even if Carlos Rogers were still a ways from playing, 5 corners would be enough. Besides, a corner like Westbrook is a dime a dozen and only a phone call away.

I thought Dixon had more upside than Golston and Alexander.

But I guess we cant keep 6 DT. Thats the risk you take by hopeing guys end up on the PS.

Well Ive gotten to know Blache and a rookie DC can do just as poorly as he can imho...kiss it Greg.

so, how many DE's do we keep ? Daniels/Wynn/Carter/Alexander/Jarmon/skolnitski/Jackson/
plus Orakpo eventually needs to go there...

[CarMike]

Wish I had a job with ComCast Sports. Blache would hate me more than he hates Trevor Matich. He wouldn't do any more interviews, I could promise that.

[colkurtz]

The problem this season is that the coaches know that, barring a minor miracle, this is the last season for them. No need to develop rookies or long-term projects.

You throw some shekels to your old friend players and let a couple talented players with some promise go to other teams.

Tell me other teams can't wait for us to put in Wynn, Tyron, or Mike Williams, etc. Drooling. Point of Attack toward THAT guy.

I agree I'd attack him relentlessly. I hate that the local media loves the guy thinks he's so charming and quippy while not taking into account fan anger or real criticism.

blache is another clown.. but i dont think the defense will be the major problem this year.. yes, we could do so much more with an attacking coordinator, but it is Zorn and his sputtering offense that will determine whether we win 5 games or 10 games this season...

[bigcmr]

so, how many DE's do we keep ? Daniels/Wynn/Carter/Alexander/Jarmon/skolnitski/Jackson/

I would say Alexander is a DT. And Jackson anand Skolnitski are PS players. so that gives us 5 DTs, 4 DEs not counting Orakpo and Wilson.

We all knew Dixion wasent ganna make the final 53. But Wynn that one I cant fig.

the hand of Blache.. Wynn and Daniels were his special needs, and he got them from the front office to be able to stuff the run.. it is on him from here on, and if they dont shut down the run, he needs to answer a whole lot more questions than the ones that Matich was posing.

we wont have to wait very long either..we get the Giants, right out of the box
with Jacobs, Bradshaw and Ware.. let's see what we do, because honestly,
i think the Giants wont plan to beat us with Eli throwing the ball, they will plan to beat us by running all over us..

[BurgundyNGold]

Exactly WTF has J.D. Skolnitski done to deserve anything resembling PS? Aside from having a memorable name (that sounds like it could make a mean pastrami on rye) who is this guy? What did he do during preseason that didn't involve his own personal embarrassment?

1 sack, 2 tackles.. which was more than Wynn contributed..

he is a project. just like Buzbee.. and like Buzbee, will likely be gone next year..
i bet he was not the choice over Dixon?

Skolnitski, Wynn and Buzbee should all have been gone. I would rather have empty roster spots than those guys.

wynn has a ROSTER spot, so he is particularly grievous an offense

buzbee is gone.. too bad he never really came back from his achilles injury

skolnitski may or may not even last the season.. cant get too excited about PS players-- unless they are members of the LOA

[Taylor21TheUndertaker]

Dont the eagles always sign our cuts? Like pft said "Maybe they'll spend a day or two de-briefing the Redskins about their offense and defense for 2009, cutting him so that Vick can then practice."

[Taylor21TheUndertaker]

I wouldve cut Gholston or Alexander for Dixon. Also I cut wynn for any decent lb and let orakpo/wilson see backup de duties.

[skinsfan36]

wynn sucks. i dont wish injuries on players so i hope he gets kidnapped by the ufl lol. dixon should of made the team over him or even made it over bmw

[bigcmr]

I was thinking the same thing.
