Hugh Douglas is an upgrade over the DEs currently on the roster here. But if you remain fixated on the phrase "Pro Bowl defensive end, Hugh Douglas" you are going to be disappointed.
His days of stardom are in the rear view mirror. The skins should try to get him - at a reasonable price - because their D-Line is still very very marginal. But if they get him, please keep this in perspective as the season goes along.
So far, none - not a single one - of the guys that Andy Reid and company in Philly have "let go" because their contract demands were excessive have turned out to be star material anywhere else. Douglas fits that description...
