Eagles, he has a chance there to compete for a role than with the 9ers who already has Mitchell and Wilson as RB1 and RB2. What a waste of 3rd round pick by the 9ers 🤣 should have went o linemen or something more useful.

Best of luck to Trey in Philly. I wish him the best, but I'm ready to move on. Honestly, everytime he carried the ball I get serious Kevan Barlow flashbacks( althoughI think Kevan tended to dance a little more) . He just hesitates too much and lacks any conviction in his running. I really wonder if his running style wouldn't fit better with a team that employed an exclusively gap blocking scheme as he may be able to use patience to his advantage, kind of the way LeVeon Bell used to.

Probably fair to other clubs lest a certain powerhouse or Americas team get a lot of players that refuse assignments to Cleveland or Jacksonville or some such

Are you sure you're not talking about the NBA?
Because NFLPA is considered one of the weakest unions in North American pro league and outside of elite players at a couple of vanity positions (qb/wr mostly), players have very little power. The contracts arent guaranteed, defensive elite players like Donald or Miller often have to hold out to get a contract that is less guaranteed money than a random NBA role player is getting.

He might have a chance to start there because I think Sanders is one of the most overrated RB's in the league. And Gainwell is decent but not a true #1 back.
Sanders is a good player. Just has to stay healthy.
This
and I'd firmly rank Gainwell and Boston Scott over sermon.
They may have picked him up as a bigger, short yardage back because their current 3 are slight in frame

I agree that the NBA and MLB have stronger unions but the NFL players union still has a big say. It often gets suspensions and fines reduced.It has a say in rules. They even are getting guaranteed contracts for some players now which is a terrible idea for a sport like football where injuries are so frequent. I've seen several players that have already been lost for the season after signing a big contract.

I think the Eagles are one of the top competitors for the NFC tbh. They added a lot of nice pieces on both sides of the ball.

Eagles will win their div but it all depends on Hurts. On paper they improved a lot, I can see them being a problem in the NFC and they're a team that gives us a hard time because of their dline and Mullens for the past 2 years losing to them in that injury filled year in 20' and last year squeaking a win when pretty much for a full 3 quarters they gave us issues

Doesn't have a 20-yard run for his career, but will break open an 85 yarder. on the Eagles no less. What a "fan".

He has us in the NFCCG so doesn't he get credit for his "Fandom" for that?
