Noel Devine Quit On Philadelphia Eagles

1 08 2011

by Aaron Wilson of Scout.com

Undrafted rookie running back Noel Devine was abruptly released Saturday, the Philadelphia Eagles announced.

What they didn’t announce is that the former West Virginia star actually left the squad on his own, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

It’s unclear exactly why Devine left the Eagles, but the diminutive runner could have been frustrated with his practice snaps since Philadelphia has plenty of backs.

Undersized at 5-foot-7, 179 pounds, Devine struggled with a toe injury last season and rushed for 934 yards and six touchdowns as a senior. Read the rest of this entry »





Ax Man Back! A Reunion of Sorts for JR’s Ramblings!

29 09 2009

Just when I thought YOU weren’t getting a Tuesday Ramblings, the Eagles went and made another odd move in what seems like an endless supply since last free agency started. We’ve been through them all so I won’t re-hash, but really, did you ever think Jeremiah Trotter would be back on this team in any other capacity besides, “team ambassador.” I knew you didn’t. Anyways, on to the real thing………… Read the rest of this entry »





Eagles Score Big in the Draft

Maclin is an explosive play-maker

By Mike Gill

The Eagles off-season continues to take shape. 

First the birds finally addressed the fullback problem that has plagued them over the past few seasons.  Next, the Eagles rebuilt their offensive line by signing mauler Stacey Andrews, then traded one of their two first round picks in this years draft for pro-bowl tackle Jason Peters.

At the draft, the Eagles added speed, weapons and depth.  First speed, adding wide-out / return-man, Jeremy Maclin.  Maclin brings in another explosive pass-catcher who can take the ball the distance anytime he touches the ball.  Next they added another weapon in the running game by selecting Pittsburgh running back LeSean McCoy.  McCoy is a Westbrook-like back who can catch the ball, make people miss and give Westbrook and chance to catch a break, while not losing his style of play.  One thing that seperates McCoy from Westbrook, he is very capable of getting the short yards that have hurt the Eagles in years past.  McCoy is Pitt’s all-time leading touchdown scorer, more then Tony Dorsett, more then Larry Fitzgerald.  Finally,  Cornelius Ingram, Victor “Macho” Harris and Brandon Gibson are three players taken on the second day of the draft who can end up making an impact for the birds.  Read the rest of this entry »
