    Eh I meant Walker, I don't see how they got the better end of the deal, but that's your opinion and I assume you are a Cowpie fan so...
    I would admit if I thought a team got a the better of any deal, regardless of me being a Boys fan. My whole thing is, yea they have a lot of d-linemen, and some good unproven young talents, and thats fine. But you trade you best and most productive defensive tackle, for a guy that is 31, 2 years removed from a major injury, and who didnt really look that good last year. Like I said, I think the Eagles took a big chance, and it very well could pay off great for them next year. But what if it doesnt, and he isnt very good, then they basically traded one of their best d-linemen for Kelly Holcomb, and gave up a pick. I think the reward could be much higher for the Eagles, but Walker is much more of a good thing, thats why I think at this point Buffalo got the better end of the deal. But 6 or 8 weeks into the season, we could see that the Eagles got the better end, its all up to es

    First off Darwin Walker is 29 and he was our best DT last year because Patterson is young and Bunkley barely played, Takeo es is 30 years old, yeah a major injury that isn't as big of a deal nowadays I'm not saying he will save us, but trading an expendable aging DT that doesn't always give 100% isn't that bad, Dt isn't a weak area for us, LB is. and Kelly Holcomb is a solid backup, we traded a conditional 7th round pick, big deal.

    Face it we got better at Linebacker it makes the team better, if he can be above average it will be an upgrade to what we've had, making our front 7 better making our D better, I'm sure we will be gravy, but only time can tell, I'm more concerned about McNabbs injury then I am TKO's

    There was a reason they barely played, youth are not, a lot of rookies play their first years, even our 4th rounder Hatcher played for the Boys last year. And your right, Walker will be 30 next year, but es will be 31. And I would rather have a 30 year old dt that hasnt had a serious u=injury than a 31 year old lb, who has had a major injury, and doesnt really produce anything except tackles as a product of the system. And Holcomb? Guy couldnt even beat out Losman, barely a second stringer, when he is stuck behind Feeley maybe you will realize how crappy he is. Then again, with McNabbs constant injury problems, I guess maybe getting him wasnt the worst idea

    But I guess your right as well, yall really needed lbs, so I guess it was a good move. I just wonder why a team that needs lbs themselves would let him go

    Paterson played all year and had a decent year, he couldn't do a lot because Walker was lined up next to him, our dt's didn't do well last year. Bunkely didn't play much because he held out of training camps and was out of shape so he was left behind and used sparingly, How many pro bowls has Walker been to ? I swear you must not watch the Eagles much, there is more then a stat sheet.

    Losman was a 1st rounder for the bills he was suppose to start sooner or later, he is a back up anyways, you some kinda Nazi know it all of football and every team or something?

    They are in major rebuild mode, it's cap related mainly, they let a lot of guys go.

    Just giving opinions bro, dont got to get all riled up about it and start name calling. And yea, I watched a lot of Eagles games, I watched a lot of every team, doesnt make me a know it all, I just have an opinion on a lot of teams. Patterson was pretty decent, good run stopper, but Walker was a decent run stopper and blitzer, he also had 2 sacks against the Saints, pretty much the whole teams pass rush in that game. And yea, Losman was a first rounder that finally was able to start all year in his third year. He barely held off the position for the first time last year, and played prety well the second half. But last year he didnt play very well, and Holcomb got 8 starts, and didnt look very good either, but maybe that was the teams fault. Im not trying to talk man, I criticize my own team a lot. Just giving my opinion. ANd I really think that this makes the Bills front four damn good, they will get a ton of sacks. I also dont know if this means the end of Dahni for the Eagles
