    Sturgis used to be the Dolphins' placekicker before Andrew Franks beat him out for that job. I surely would not be surprised if Franks is one of those at whom the Eagles will be taking a long look.
    Eagles signed someone else earlier today. I don’t recall the name.
    Brandon Pirri: Turk would give it to Jagr. That's awesome! Jagr's untouchable. And he would give it to Jagr.

      I had expected they would take more time to make a decision. There's a saying that you should never buy a used van from a kicker, because the guy has probably put a zillion miles on it driving from one tryout to another.

      I'm not sure Franks even had time to get his van (or whatever he drives) to Philadelphia before they signed their new guy.

      For the record, the guy they signed was Jake Elliott, who was drafted by the Bengals but failed to make that team.

              Speaking of Todd, does anyone know if he's at full strength and practicing?

                The nice thing about being a kicker is that you often can play until you are 40 or more. As a kid I was a big fan of Lou 'The Toe' Groza and although in those days kickers played a regular position also, he stayed around fairly long. Unless Franks had some other, non footbal, reason for being cut, I am certain we will see him with another NFL team at some time (hopefully sooner rather than later).

                      Just a clarification on Devito, he didn’t sign a contract with Washington. It’s an invite to their Team Training Camp. He must’ve made quite an impression at their Development Camp to get this invite though.
