I agree with you that Houshmandzadeh would be a good fit in Philly, but the Eagles aren't going to spend that much for players past the age of 30. Terrell Owens was an exception, as an elite player who turned 31 in December of his first season with the team. He had size and experience in the WCO in his favor though, so even if he began to decline, he would still be productive.
Especially after Houshmazilli and his agent tried to pull one over the Eagles and that pissed them off. I think he may have burned that bridge, unless he continues to go unsigned and then lowers his price (for real this time) to sign with Philly.
But I don't think he'll land in Philly.Pugnacity, testosterone, truculence, and belligerence.

Originally posted by Geo View PostSeriously, I hate this guy's ego and attitude. Him and Chad Johnson and Chris Henry, I dislike them all. I feel sorry for Carson.
Plus the Bengals were stupid to sign Ben Utecht from the Colts. I didn't want to say it then to not hurt the fans' feelings, but he's an alright guy except he fumbles and can't stay healthy. The latter they saw for themselves in his first season in Cincy.
Hopefully Crabtree falls to the Bengals so Palmer can have a really great trio of Crabtree, Caldwell, and Simpson. Guys willing to play the game without absurd egos and bad character screwing it all up.

I don't disagree, any wide receiver has more ego than any other football position. Other than maybe cornerback, who might be very close.
It's intrinsic, part of their nature, because wide receivers and cornerbacks have the closest thing to a one-on-one matchup as there is in football. They have to go out there and beat their man.Pugnacity, testosterone, truculence, and belligerence.

Originally posted by Go_Eagles77 View PostI was talking strictly from a football standpoint, but I can see why Seattle is on the top of everyone's wishlist as far as cities are concerned. Everyone is so depressed there it has the highest suicide rate in the country, I can see why Housh would want to go there.
But back to Housh, I see him being an obviously more talented Nate Burleson, but with sort of the same result out in Seattle. They sign him to big money, when he's never really proven to be a legit #1 without someone lining up on the otherside. Even if Seattle did sign him, I still think they're in the running for Crabtree in the draft.
