Well now...

Turns out that Chiefs' brass made a call inquiring about how they might acquire Baskett in a trade when it was believed that Philly was shopping him. They were one of 6 teams. The bad news? So was St. Louis.

So there is a chance that if he clears waivers that he'll join this team.

Then again...
They probably made this call BEFORE adding Bobby Wade so there's a chance that this is all moot.

I'm almost certain, as I said this morning, that Spags put a claim in for him.

Hank Baskett is married to a playboy chick......so he>Brodie Croyle.

I only had a chance to read the first page --

I had a feeling the Eagles were going to cut Hank Baskett --

Baskett played on special teams -- The Eagles rarely used him as WR -- especially during the last two seasons.

Baskett is tall-- But, he couldn't hold on to the ball. -- I'm pretty sure that's why he was demoted to special teams.

Croyle hasn't screwed up his career, LITERALLY.

No worries. The call from the Rams probably came before they signed Ruvell Martin. And Martin is much closer in build/skills to Baskett than Wade is.

In other words, we still have a need while the Rams might not.

SIGN HIM!!

......... and release who? Personally, I'd rather release Engram than Copper. I know everyone hates Copper. But, he's younger and has greater "upside" (I hate that over used term) than Engram who is on his last legs. Copper could at least develop into something for the future. But, Engram is not going to be apart of this team's future.

I wish we could trade Thiggy or Guti. Even for a low draft pick. We don't need to carry 4 QBs.

I wish we could trade Thigpen or Guti. Even for a low draft pick. We don't need to carry 4 QBs.

Is Copper REALLY part of the future? I mean, we heard the same thing about Samie Parker and Jeff Webb and the list goes on and on and on.

I mean, who cares? Engram can produce this season. NEITHER of them are likely to be part of the future.

The Rams waived two players today....

Wonder if they're making room for Baskett?

Eh, i would keep Engram, though i wouldn't care if he was released. We already have another copper type of Player in Wade. I'd cut Copper and bring in Baskett.

Baskett has always seemed like he has a boat load of talent to me. He has the size speed, I've seen him make some nice grabs. Wonder why he isn't a top 3 WR for the Eagles?

I hope not. It makes sense though. Damn those Rams. Don't they know that Jeff Webb is available?

I mentioned this early yesterday. Baskett was in Philly at the same time as Spags. It seems like a no-brainer that St. Louis would claim him.

MahiMike 09-16-2009 10:56 AM

um, why would we want a guy that can't make Philly's lineup? He ain't all that.
