adam Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Saw this nugget in a Westbrook article: Baskett, by the way, is apparently wanted by a bunch of teams, according to the National Football Post. Some of them supposedly even contacted the Eagles before Baskett was released in hopes of trading for him. The group that is interested reportedly includes the Tennessee Titans, St. Louis Rams, Chicago Bears, Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the Kansas City Chiefs. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/rumors/post/Ea...?urn=nfl,189901 Is this guy really that good, and would he actually be an upgrade for us?

nfoligno Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I am not sure Baskett is that good, but I will say this. I think we have come to realize that you really must question the sources of info. How do they know what teams are supposedly interested. Could it be that Baskett's agent is simply throwing out the names of any team he believes has a need at WR in order to drum up some interest?

That is true, I just thought it was funny because he doesn't even seem like a #4 WR let alone someone we would want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 You guys act like we have competent receivers on our team. If he can catch a ball, and run a route without breaking it off or making up his own pattern he is already better than some of the guys we trot out there and call receivers.

DABEARSDABOMB Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 She's a playmate and Baskett's soon to be wife. They have a reality TV show on some channel that my girlfriend watches every once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfoligno Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Thought that was her. Just wasn't sure. Great to look at. Would not kick her out of my bed. But marry her?

madlithuanian Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 One of the 3 floozies that "dated" Hugh Hefner on a reality show I think called "Girls next Door". Even by Hollywood standards, the plastic was quite obvious. ...and annoying as well. Oddly, my wife loved the show...probably to laugh at the idiocy of the 3 girls. At first I was game to watch given the generic subject matter, but it got old fast. Who is she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfoligno Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I caught the show channel surfing one night. Three hot chicks in nighties in a bed room. I paused, realized it wasn't cable, and thus what I saw was all I would see, and moved on. One of the 3 floozies that "dated" Hugh Hefner on a reality show I think called "Girls next Door".

If he can catch a ball, and run a route without breaking it off or making up his own pattern he is already better than some of the guys we trot out there and call receivers. If this guy was any good then why would he dropped during the season. Please I would pass, like has been said that Cutler needs time to develop with this current set of receivers. I believe we will be just fine at WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonej Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Baskett is what we have already and to add him is going to make one more WR who is not going to be on the same page as the QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Here's my take: suck it up throughout the year, and go out this offseason and sign a true #1, like say...Vincent Jackson, TO, Brandon Marshall, Greg Jennings, or try to trade for one. Plus, remember, we took Iglesias in round 3 this year. He still has a chance to be a good WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlithuanian Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I basically agree. I also see no problem trying to draft another... However, i wonder if the best move could be a coaching change... either WR coach or OC...

Vincent Jackson is not a #1, he's just in a prolific offense with one of the best RBs of all time, and one of the best TEs of all time, and a fairly awesome QB.

Vincent Jackson is not a #1, he's just in a prolific offense with one of the best RBs of all time, and one of the best TEs of all time, and a fairly awesome QB. Except he's huge, and JC loves big WR's. I'm not sure what I'd like the team to do. We could sign Jackson and go for it big time. The window for our defense as well as our OL is potentially closing fast. We could wait for Iglesias and Aromashodu to improve and Hester/Bennett to continue to get better, but at the time, the window might be closed.
