Found this on another board...ESPN: Douglas probably going to Buffalo

[4thAndLong]

He didn't have a link, he just saw it on ESPN.

I doubt this is true though.

[BambinoSux]

It's sorta true. Peter King implied that much on HBO. He did say he didn't expect the Eagles to retain him though.

We still need a WLB and a DT more IMO. Maybe even a FS.

[ArcticWildMan]

Are you talking about Hugh Douglas?? Wow!!! I'm surprised Philly would even consider letting him go!!

[lordofgun]

That would ROCK! I love Huge Douglas!

maybe, but douglas is a great player! I'd love to have him! this would be great if it were true

[lordofgun]

Just a note of caution though. Now that Buffalo has TONS of room to sign people, they are probably going to be rumored to be interested in ANY LB, S, DT, or DE that is available.

log brings up a good point.

Party pooper!!

[4thAndLong]

But since we also have TONS of room, we'll probably be able to sign him.

[Kicker22705]

how old is douglas?

[4thAndLong]

He's in his 8th NFL year, and a big part of the eagle defense.

His last 3 seasons sack wise are (00-02)...15.0, 9.5, 12.5

[venis2k1]

He is a big dude too, he can stop the run (unlike Schobel)

[MissBuffalo]

I'd love if we picked up Hugh. I know that Marcus Jones can play DT, but his specialty is at end. So if we do pick up Douglas (assuming Jones will be playing end) do we sit Schobel and hinder his development or do we sit Jones who happens to be a former #1 pick with a 13 sack season in 2000??

[MissBuffalo]

This is very hypothetical.
