I just got off the phone with Garry Cobb up at Eagles training camp. He says that he got word that Eagles starting WR Reggie Brown is in danger of being passed over by Hank Baskett. This is a big story in Eagleland, as they are very concerned about their WR situation.
When I [...]

BETHLEHEM, Penn. — Maybe the biggest thing I took away from Eagles training camp Saturday (aside from the fact that Darren Howard sucks), is that DeSean Jackson is really impressive. I know it’s early and it’s just a training camp practice, but the second-round pick from Cal is like a suction cup out there. Some [...]

The Eagles announced today that they have signed general manager Tom Heckert to a contract extension, which will keep him in town through 2011.
The Eagles also promoted Howie Roseman to V.P. of player personnel.
“I feel we have strengthened our personnel staff today by extending Tom’s contract and by promoting Howie Roseman,” said someone in the [...]

In case you missed, and judging by the amount of people that have sent me the link to the Cnnsi.com story you haven’t, Philadelphia is officially a town that hasn’t had a pro sports championship in 100 seasons. The 76ers won in 1983, and all four teams have now gone winless in their last [...]

According to a source inside the Eagles with knowledge of the situation, former Patriots cornerback Asante Samuel has reached a deal to play in Philadelphia next year.
There are no specific details on the terms, years or compensation. Sports [...]

Another source confirmed my last report that the Eagles are indeed going after a top-flight wide receiver and that Larry Fitzgerald is at the top of that list.
As I said previously, this will require the efforts of Head Coach/VP Andy Reid, General Manager Tom Heckert and salary capologist Joe Banner, as they will need to [...]

As I first reported on 610 WIP sports radio in Philadelphia and GCobb.com, a source close to the situation told me that the Philadelphia Eagles are going hard after Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald.
The name “Chad Johnson” was also floated, but I don’t see that as a realistic possibility. It is rumored that the Redskins [...]

A source close to Eagles Quarterback Donovan McNabb recently told me that the embattled star “absolutely wants to stay” in the City of Brotherly Love.
McNabb told ESPN in a recent interview that he thinks they should bring more star-caliber talent into the Eagles’ the roster. Many think that he is just saying all the right [...]
