Peters Passes Physical

[homeslice5484]

Pro Bowl offensive tackle Jason Peters has passed his physical with the Philadelphia Eagles following his trade from the Buffalo Bills today, according to Adam Caplan of Scout.com.
Per the report, Peters is at the Eagles’ training complex.
Citing a team source, Caplan reported that the trade terms were agreed upon this morning and has been in the works ever since the Eagles’ playoff loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
The Eagles’ fallback plan if the Peters deal hadn’t been executed was to shift right offensive guard Shawn Andrews to left tackle, according to a team source.
Of course, the success of the trade will hinge upon whether Peters performs to an optimum level. Sometimes, Peters’ desire and work ethic have been questioned.
“If he’s motivated, the Eagles got a steal,” NFL analyst and former Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski told Scout.com. “The guy is really talented, but he didn’t play at the same level last season that he did previously.”
The Eagles are still working on a new contract for Peters as talks have begun with his Indiana-based agent, Eugene Parker.

Re: Peters Passes Physical

Im not even mad about the picks....we have the #11 - we trade the #28 and the fourth rounder and move up in the first round a little higher if we need to.

I'm just pissed that we didn't get their #21 pick. That would have been more fair for us.

Not sure how much we can move up but we can use 28 and the 4th to move up if we wanted.

Michael Smith just said on NFL live a deal is in the works to make Peters the TOP paid LT in the NFL above Gross and Long

Good luck Philly

28 and a third can probably move you up 6-7 spots to where the Eagles were around 21'ish.

I'd personally rather not. There will be plenty of guys at 28 who can help us, whether it's at DE, LT, OLB, etc. There's tons of value at 28 (though I definitely would have preferred #21). Good value can also be had in the 4th round. I really think the 4th rounder is not something to throw away...this draft is loaded in the middle rounds.

I'd rather get an OG prospect with that 4th rounder than move up in the first, to be honest.

Re: Peters Passes Physical

we can always stay where we are at....more picks does give us some flexibility though. This draft day should be interesting.

Especially if they manage to trade Parrish for another pick.

I hope that he does get the money. He's a piece of **** and will get lazy after getting paid.

I'm entirely OK with this deal, but definitely would have been happier if they would've got the #21 pick instead. I'm really excited for the draft...I just hope this organization doesn't f**k it up!

Re: Peters Passes Physical

And all this from a undrafted TE?

GEEZ.

On a side note, I will bet ZB's Peters lowers his demands now that he's out of B-Lo. (11 mill range)
