We got McIntosh to help the LB corps, he'll step in right away and help. Oh, we also added Randle-El and Lloyd on offense, got Archuleta, solidified the pass rush with Andre Carter, making a weakness a strength(going to have a healthy Cornelius Griffin and Phillip Daniels to start the season, Griffin is a pro-bowler when healthy), not to mention maybe the most important addition of the off-season, Al Saunders.
My favorite move, though? Getting rid of Cancer Arrington. I'm thrilled that NYG signed him...can't wait till they find out what he's all about. Addition by subtraction.
So I'd say we've had a fairly good offseason...NFC East title. And the Eagles are hands-down the worst team in the division now. Your window has officially closed.

The window has hardly closed. we had lots of key guys hurt last year...McNabb, Westbrook, Lito Shepard, McDougle..it goes on and on. Our defensive line is gonna be a force once again with McDougle coming back...and adding Darren Howard and Buckley.
Randel-El is one of the most over rated WRs int he league. He cashed in on a huge payday because of his nice post season. Lloyd is average at best. And Archuleta's best days are behind him...which is pretty sad for a guy who isn't even 30 yet (or just barely 30).
saunders is a great offensive mind...but now all your players have to learn a new offense. that puts them back.
the skins are mediocre. The Eagles will shit on them once again.
Philly fans booed Santa Claus AND throw batteries at people. Only fans that are worse are the AC Milan fans who constantly chant racial slurs and throw flares at you.
That game against the Maple Leafs where Domi went to the box and the fan started bitching at him and Domi squirted him so the fat ass fan who I'm sure was over 3 bills and had just finished his 5th cheese steak of the night decides it's a good idea to taunt Domi while leaning over the glass. Only the glass breaks due to his weight and he falls into the box, so Domi beats the shit out of him. Greatest TV moment ever.

Put Randel-El in the slot with Santana and Lloyd on the outside and watch him flourish. Lloyd has questionable work habits, but Gibbs will get him straightened out. It's amazing what playing for a winner will do. Archuleta will be more than servicable next to Sean Taylor.
And you don't think we had players hurt last year? By the end of the season we could hardly field a full roster, literally pulling guys off the street, yet somehow managed to make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs.
To even suggest that Philly is better than Washington right now is laughable. McNabb still has no one to throw to, Westbrook still hasn't shown he can carry the ball 20 times a game...which is ok, because Reid still refuses to run the ball consistently. That offensive line is also getting old. I agree that the defense will be terrific yet again, but bottom line is they don't have the weapons on offense, as great as McNabb and Westbrook can be. Or wait, is this the year that Todd Pinkston finally does something? Greg Lewis gonna become a playmaker? Doubtful on both counts.
Eagles will have a hard time shitting on anyone next season, let alone the Skins.
I guess we'll have to wait till next Fall/Winter to see how it plays out.
