Actually, you need to read up on the negotiations ...
You guys are acting like Glenn is some God .... big mistake.
And nobody in Philly is saying a thing about Freeman, he's the #3 receiver ....
Freeman thought he'd find a team that would guarantee him #1 or #2 receiver position ....
Reid told him no; good luck, maybe we'll talk later ... c ya !
Freeman later told him he wanted XXX dollars ....
Reid told him no; good luck, maybe we'll talk later ... c ya !
The Eagles signed him as a #3 .... on their conditions ... at their price.
I'd call that damn good management !
Any player, or any Green Bay fan, who thinks the Eagles are gonna rape their team financially < you listenin' Dallas, Baltimore and Washington ? > really doesn't know the philosophy of the team.
Trotter tried it; got told, you're not more important than the team .... c ya !
Trotter ended up signing in Washington for less money than he was offered 1 and 1/2 years ago by the Eagles ... and waited that long to get it.
Gee, my present value equation says he's a dummy .... lol
Regarding players reaction, who cares ? They're players, nothing more, nothing less.
If Freddie Mitchell who is now #4 can't beat out Freeman, then Freddie Mitchell doesn't deserve to sniff playing time.
