Glenn yes yes

So who do you want on your team? It looks like a wash to me.
Philly is happy to have Freeman and Packers happy to have Glenn.

Glenn is faster with better hands. Freeman has won a championship
and gives the Eagles experience.....he has been there.

Salaries are about the same. No way the Packers could have
brought Freeman back at the 3 or 4 million (or whatever is was) that
he was scheduled to make. No way Philly (or any other team)would have
paid him that either. No way Packers would have brought Glenn in
at his old salary either.

Both were problems for their past teams.

Both are hungry to prove they are still top receivers.

Both have skills. Glenn is more athletic.

Will Freeman bring a title to Philly? Will Glenn be the answer for the Packers
for the next 5 years? If the answers to both questions are yes then everyone is
happy and there are no losers. We'll see!

I know one thing.....the Packers would sure as hell rather have Glenn than Freeman.
So would I.

I will let you know if I still feel that way at the end of the season :)

PS.....I just picked Freeman up on my fantasy team.
I see him as Philly's # 1 receiver from here out.
