HOWIE STAYS HUNGRY: Eagles Sign DT Haloti Ngata To A One Year Deal
Fletcher Cox. Brandon Graham. Tim Jernigan. Derek Barnett. Michael Bennett. Chris Long.
Haloti Ngata. Remember how dominant the Eagles DL was during the Super Bowl? Good. Grief. On paper, this type of abuse should be outlawed by the Geneva Convention.
In reality though? Umm…Ngata is 34-years-old. Michael Bennett and Chris Long are also 32. These aren’t exactly spring chickens on the defensive front. However, between their experience and mentorship they should prove to be very helpful to the dominant Cox, Graham, Timmy J, and Barnett. Ngata, Bennett, and Long aren’t expected to ball out every down. Also, keep in mind Ngata has regressed since 30 and only played 5 games last season (2 sacks tho), and has 33 tackles in the last 3 years, but he still takes up a shit load of space. He should be a fine replacement for Beautiful Beau. Big Daddy Joe Douglas was with the Ravens during Ngata’s dominant career, so, like always, he knows what he’s doing. Gotta trust Big Daddy.
The likes of Nigel Bradham, Beau Allen, and Trey Burton are recieving strong interest from around the league, so it’ll unfortunately be farewell and adieu to some fair Super Bowl champions. But that’s the business. Can’t wait for them to somehow, somehow sign Suh for free and offensive lines just start graveling instead of attempting to block. Next. Hungry Dogs Run Faster.
