Kiko Alonso for Shady

[Brady-Carter]

Ya, looks like Shady is not to happy about the trade.

ESPN's Josina Anderson tweeted the following Tuesday night, hours after news broke of the Buffalo Bills' trade with the Philadelphia Eagles:

A source close to LeSean McCoy to me on how the #Eagles RB feels about news of an agreement to trade McCoy to Buffalo:

"He’s a Pennsylvania kid. He’s never played football outside of Pennsylvania—high school, college, pro. So of course he's not happy. Sounds like it’s pretty final to me unless LeSean is refusing to go to Buffalo."

On whether the source believes McCoy will make a trade to Buffalo difficult, in light of McCoy’s initial reaction to the news:

"It'll be interesting to see how this process plays itself out because he's an interesting individual. In your mind, when you think of Buffalo you think of cold and losing games. It’s not like it’s the Philadelphia market where you’re always on t.v. and you’re playing for like the division title or that type of thing…It was unexpected. I'll tell you that much.”

The source on how McCoy is feeling at the moment:

"Honestly, he's frustrated ... It's alright. It's the league. I told him that. I guess he just never experienced that, but he was like 'why me.'"

The source said he thinks McCoy is "not going to make it easy, that's for sure."

The source on whether the trade news was a surprise:

"Honestly we were under the impression the whole time, that eventually at some point, Chip [Kelly] was going to ask LeSean to restructure his contract--not a pay cut, but convert some of his signing bonus."

Don't know how legit this guy is, but it is inline with Silvers tweet.



I find it hard to believe the Eagles where just going to outright cut dude. But if true, wow.

To add on, the Eagles had one of the best O-Lines and McCoy still had a down year. What's going to happen in Buffalo who has one of the worse O-Lines?

the o line was hurt since before day one. We never had a healthy I line all season and had third stringers in numerous times.

That doesn't excuse shady still dancing in the backfield though, but the Oline was never good at run blocking. They were average at pass blocking.

well look at his contract
not many teams wanna pay over 10 mil for a rb

Kiko Alonso played in behind Marcel Dareus, Mario Williams, and Jerry Hughes. All beasts in their own right and he won't have that protection in Philly. Buffalo's defense didn't dip at all last year without him gone.

Thank you...allota these nikkas talking don't know football

eagles strength was their front seven on defense. More specifically the line led by all pro fletcher cox. Next.

nikkas said the same thing when Desean left...offense clearly regressed (w/ defense putting 8 men in the box)
You still need talent for an effective system....Eagles don't have it

they won the same amount of games with a worse defensive secondary, worse QB and a year of tape on their "gimmick" offense.

It is crazy the Eagles found someone to take that contract.

Good move. Eagles roster is full of holes. Can't be paying a rb Arab money in that situation.

Eagles gonna go after DeMarco Murray or Adrian Peterson?
