Scalamania Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Quote Allen Barbre wasn’t the only Philadelphia Eagles player to be released on Wednesday (story here). The team also cut defensive end Marcus Smith, according to an official announcement from the team. Howard Eskin was first to report the news. https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2017/7/26/16036490/marcus-smith-eagles-philadelphia-nfl-draft-2014-first-round-pick-bust-trade-defensive-end-roseman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalamania Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 A move that should surprise absolutely nobody - this is long overdue and he's been trash since being selected in the first round of 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Is this guy worth getting picked up? Browns are near tops in the Waivers. Could this potentially be a Jerry Hughes type situation where a change of scenery actually pays off?? Eagles run a 34 right? Could he be better in a 43?

He "improved" last year, but if we're being real, he didn't deserve playing time over Steven Means. The Eagles gave him every chance to try and be a contributor, but he just lacks in so many areas that it's hard to put him on the field. Eagles ran a 4-3 last year btw.

If you need someone to dress and line up at DE...but you won't be getting any kind of pass rush from him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyld Stallyns Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 This draft pick was cursed from the start. It was originally the Colts, traded to Cleveland for Trent Richardson, then traded to Philly for the pick used on Johnny Manziel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except Howie Roseman admitted to drafting Marcus Smith. Regardless, the rest of that draft was actually pretty solid. For Chip, it was not understanding the value of players and the NFL marketplace that was his downfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
