They must be impressed with his bench?

I think eagles shouldn’t make huge name signings just the signings that are neccesary. If they do what they did a few years ago it won’t work out no matter how good the players are

Landry known for big hits and forced fumbles. But don’t look for a lot of interceptions. Made the pro bowl last year.

Laron had good synergy & provided a fierce hitting component within the Jets secoondary as a whole. He had his moments but he’s not a stand alone coverage star. Once he stopped hitting people out of bounds & getting us 15 yard personal foul penalties I started seeing him as a good component that contributed to the overall strength of the entire secondary unit, which was where our only consistentcy was on the team all season. Hope the Jets resign him & we keep the unit intact, but we’ll see his head is a little big right now plus some desperate team may overpay for him.. Probably the Redskins.

What no Jets bashing here??

No Rex is a clown?
No Jets are a circus?

Must be a national holiday for assistant shipping clerks.

The Eagles gotta sign a couple free agents as a stop gap measure. They need 9 starters on defense alone. Andy Reid sucked the life out of this team.

I dont know whats funnier, the eagles having 4 safties on the roster and sucking at defense that bad or the thought that Leron Landry would help. This guy needs to stop playing football and get into bodybuilding.

To all the Redskins fans laughing – Landry might not be a great player & he has his flaws, but Kurt Coleman makes him look like Ronnie Lott.

Always hurt, overrated and on the down side of his career. Steal him or pass on him.

Can you imagine how good D-Jax will look in practice now?

LaRon Landry was one of the only reasons watching the Jets were tolerable to me last year. I hope the Jets resign him, but any team is luck to get him. Good luck dirty 30.

He is a way better option then what we already have .. it’ll be interesting to see Laron and D-Jax on the same team ..

He is a short term option

As a Redskins fan, I don’t like this. I was always a fan of Dirty 30. Seeing him in an Eagles uni is going to ruin that.

I am hoping the Bills offer up more than what Philly offers him. I’d really like to see Landry and Byrd play side by side.

Every free agent must first see if the Dream Team wants him. It’s the rule.

Then he can get cooked in practice everyday by desean and not just on mnf

Although the eagles need a sure tackling safety this would be a bad move for Laron. The NFC East know how to exploit in him coverage and without any good corners, he will definitely get exposed.

defense is the least of this pathetic teams worries. better spend some momey on offense first.

Nnamdi will be released as soon as tomorrow. The reason for the delay is to make sure the dead money hit is in the new league year.

Several people seem to think that when this happens it will add 11M to the Eagles cap space. Not quite.

The cap is based on the top 51 players. With Nnamdi released, another player will replace him in the cap calculations. That brings the additional space down to 10.52M.

Then, the Eagles will void the 2014 and 2015 years in Vick’s newly renegotiated contract. That will add about 5.1M in dead money against the cap.

So the two transactions together will add about 5.4M to the Eagles’ cap space, and the Eagles should have about 38.5M in cap space before any free agent signings.

not paying top dollar for injury pron dudes, love his style, but guys like that cant last because, that style is what gets them hurt. we need tough guys, not guys who are intellectuals first, football second. jackson is my favorite player, but i dont wanna hear about his music until we win a super bowl. he can have that shat, save it! not trying to hear a loser. I want a dominant team gdammit.

if landry does come to philly i hope he can do more than lift weights. We need better safety play and more importantly (in my opinion), we need to get back to punchin ppl in the mouth. It makes me sick to see how soft the D has been the past few years

Redskins fans everywhere let out a big laugh. Garçons gonna have 500 yards on this guy alone.

Heck yea! We need some fire in that back seven. I can’t take another Nate “Please Don’t Run At Me” Allen or Curt “Overpursue” Coleman’s pathetic attempt of a tackle. It’s embarrassing!

Hell, I’d settle to see Kevin Kolb use all his strength to throw a 25 yard pass, and trust me it wasn’t pretty!

That’s how bad our safeties are. HELP!!!

If somehow he learns to cover anyone, then sign him up, but Im pretty sure he still sucks at coverage. I never understood why he just doesn’t play linebacker.
