The first thing I said when the Eagles got Ryans was this trade was made for locker room leadership that was badly needed since Dawkins left. You can see that taking effect this year. Ryans is adjusting the sets, Davis the DC calls him his coach on the field. You can see the young ones respect...
As the Eagle fan who hangs around this place, all I can say is thank you very much.
What I think the Eagles get here is a leader for a defense that badly needed one. Plus he plays a position of need.
Could not have gotten a better man.
My link to this is walking three blocks to the police station at West Chester U., talking to people there about requirements it takes to be a campus police officer, being shown a manual on training and duties.
Being a state funded college, West Chester's requirements are the same as Penn State...
Requirements to become a law enforcement officer on a college campus in Pa.
1000 hours training. Some college attendence.
Local police receive 1100 hours. No college.

The Phila. press Monday wanted to speak to Young about his possible start if Vick could not play Monday. Looked for him at the Nova Care Center and Young was not there. Monday is a work day for the team. Tuesday is their day off.
Interesting.
As a Penn State grad, I can't beleive what is going on up there.
All the good done in the program with grad rates in sports and the idea that this was one on the best programs in the country to send a kid, all being washed away.
Like it or not, college sports puts a public face on a shcool for...
Correct. This is what they are doing with him.
As far as what is going on with this team, this is what I see.
Three pro bowl CBs that can't or will not tackle. Bump the receiver down. Pro bowl left tackle who misses his asigment by double teaming a DT with the left guard and alowing his DE a...
A very simple one.
Scott Norwood makes the field goal against the Giants. The Bills win their first super bowl and go on to win 4 super bowls in a row.
Some quotes from the Eagle's message board from fans attending camp on Vince Young Aug. 8.
V.Y. just missed DeAndre Brown by 11 yards. Best pass he's thrown today.
Havn't seen a single highlight of Vince in tc yet. Seems like one of those players who's head gets in the way.
Once he...
The next step for the Eagles is LB. Especilly MLB. So is they move Samuel or DRC it will be for a name MLB. Something along the lines of Willis from the 49's or your guy one for one.
Mornhinweg said last year that Kafka picked up the offense faster than any player he has ever coached. Needs playing time to develop.
The signing of the A&M QB was unexpected to me, as all the talk was about finding a vet backup.
The Eagles could be looking for someone post Vick and what kind...
This is what most writters and radio guys in Philly think will happen. Keep in mind Young only received a one year deal. The Eagles are very high on Mike Kafka, their 4th round pick last year. Kafka is a Kolb type QB and his development was one of the reasons for the trading of Kolb.
So it...
The Ealges select Justin Rodgers CB Richmond.
A very interesting kid. Had 12 picks in college, 7 his first playing year. The next 2 years teams would not throw to his area.
Ran a 4.40 and a 4.42 on his pro day.
Another reason I like him is his kick retuen skills.
Averaged 13.5 yards on...
This concludes the Eagles draft as they have no picks in the last two rounds.
What I wanted to do is get a starting guard and depth on the interior O. line. With Pouncey and Ijalana, I drafted a starter at RG and two players that can play more than one position along the line. Along with Mike...
The Eagles select Alex Henery K/P Nebraska.
Akers did not sign his tender. Rocca is also a FA though he did sign a tender.
Henery is a very unique player. I can not think of a kicker who can both kick and punt at an NFL level. Henery can.
Can hit the long FG and has kicked outdoors in the...
