We're getting into the Eagles offseason with free agency and the draft just around the corner. The Eagles will most certainly be cutting players and picking up new talent along the way. We brought Brandon Lee Gowton – BLG – Managing Editor at BleedingGreenNation.com and BGN Radio on the show this week to talk about this Eagles offseason.
But first, on the Brief News & Views segment:
1. Might the XFL make a return someday? (4:30)
2. The Flyers call up Jordan Weal from the Phantoms. (9:50)
3. Phillies pitchers and catchers have reported to Clearwater, FL. (14:40)
4. Viewpoints on the impending Sixers/Okafor trade. (20:45)
5. TAKE IT or LEAVE IT: MLB is testing a new rule to place a runner on 2nd base in extra innings. (26:35)
Our Listener Feedback this week focused on Len's hometown of Norristown, PA, Jeff's consistent and awful laugh on the show, how the Philadelphia Sports Table has been relevant in one gentleman's life, and whether the Eagles should target recently cut Giants players. (33:35)
Then what we're throwing down on the Table this week is an in-depth interview and discussion with Brandon Lee Gowton (@BrandonGowton) from the Bleeding Green Nation family. Not only did we get into possible players that may be released, but we talked about Bennie Logan's future and what it means for the defense. BLG also gave his insights into the cornerback and quarterback position as the Eagles move forward in free agency and the draft. What will happen with the wide receiver position? Howie Roseman's front office management and Doug Pederson's coaching are also topics the guys get into this week, plus much, much more. (44:40)
