I feel obligated to point out to those who are making fun of this acquisition: Gibson is reasonably athletic. He may not have been worth much in the old scheme, but with Mudd he may be a good fit as depth. People always jump the gun and never look at the whole story...


After we cut Jamaal everyone was complaining about depth and only having 5 OL signed, so we sign a guy that can backup 3 spots and it is awful.


Now that I think about it, was he even cut or did Seattle sign him off the practice squad?


Signed off our practice squad. So it is someone that eagles have always liked.

Roll your eyes, scoff, do whatever, this was a necessary signing for depth. We aren't going to add an all-pro to be a back-up guys.

Finally, Spadaro says something good.


I hope its true


Well they aren't going to say he's come in to start even if it is true, it gives no leverage in other negotiations.

The only negative I can see is that he does have to learn a new scheme, he was signed off our PS when Juan was still the O-Line coach.

In the US, if you work more than one job do you get taxed more on your 2nd and 3rd jobs?

Depending on your salary, yes.

I liked Gibson a lot coming out of college, he has a mean streak and pretty quick light feet to go up and go hit some one at the second level. I think Mudd could groom him up a bit to be a solid rotational guy on the line at multiple positions.

A lot of guys get hurt up over the year, do you really wanna play the Giants late in the season with no depth on the o line? nope.


Can we go get some linebackers tho!!!!!!! Shocked
