Eagles | Runyan re-signed
Fri, 24 Mar 2006 13:12:27 -0800

The Philadelphia Eagles have announced the team has agreed to terms with free agent ORT Jon Runyan (Eagles) on a three-year contract. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Re: jon runyon
 

that definitely helps the eagles...theyd really be screwed without him

Re: jon runyon
 

He's getting old but he's still a quality OL

Re: jon runyon
 

yea he has been healthy the last few years so he is pretty reliable, but unless Philly improves there running game their team isn't going to be much better than they were last year.

They won't make the playoffs as they stand.

Re: jon runyon
 

He is one of the dirty OL in the league...loves to pile on and hit people way after the play is over. Still and Eagle and still good, but this guy is dirty.

Re: jon runyon
 

Runyan looks like Jason Fabani to me. To big white tackles on green teams. Most important post of the day right here.

Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports OT Jon Runyan accepted the Philadelphia Eagles three-year, $12.5 million contract to re-sign with the Eagles. The New York Jets were actually willing to pay Runyan double the money in the first year of the contract and millions more over the life of it. Runyan couldn't leave the Philadelphia market in which he felt so comfortable. The Jets tried very hard to get Runyan to sign, but in the end they could not get the deal closed.

looks like the eagles got a decent deal for him.

Re: jon runyon
 

The Eagles always get a decent deal and I wouldn't write them off yet. Their D is going to be pretty good.

Re: jon runyon
 

grim,why do you think their d will be pretty good?

Re: jon runyon
 

Kearse 3 time Probowler
Trotter 4 time probowl
Dawkins 5 time probowler
Michael Lewis probowler
Darren Howard
Shawn Barber

They have a lot of playmakers. They have a great D coordinator and they are disciplined. Also, they are embarrassed. They were very tough when they had abslutely nothing to play for.

Popularity contest, popularity contest, popularity contest.

You think Larry Allen should have made the Pro Bowl this year too?

Re: jon runyon
 

Not saying they won't be above averge, but I think that's all you can ask for with that group. McNabb will make them MUCH better, they just need more.

I guess 4 straight NFC Championship games were a popularity contest too.
