    Hot off the presses: Jackie Battle is a Cowboy, having signed a three-year free-agent deal with the Pokes immediately after the draft. And Vincent Marshall is going to Atlanta, with head coach Bobby Petrino personally making the call to "recruit" Marshall for the Falcons.

    Will Gulley is headed to Arizona, and Marquay Love got a two-year deal from Miami.

    UPDATE -- Biren Ealy signed a free-agent deal with the Titans, Willie Gaston with the Ravens and Rodney Hannah will be joining the Battleship in Dallas, signing a two-year deal with the Pokes.

    Only person who has a chance to make a team is Jackie Battle. Battle is no fullback and besides Cowboys drafted a FB in 6th round. Battle could make the team as a 3rd string RB behind Barber and Jones. Battle has some skills but he doesn't play as a fast as he timed and can't catch.

    The Texans missed out on Battle. He would have been valuable in our system. :eek:

    Can't believe they signed so quick. And that he got a 3 year deal. makes you wonder...

    Cowboys lucked out.

    looks like a decent prospect, but that was the worst song I have ever heard in my life. I actually say that song out loud when I want people to shut up.

    I'm glad for all the Coogs, especially Kolb...I got to be honest, I thought Philly isn't the right situation given McNabb, but they saw what we've already known...He has the tools to be a NFL QB...

    I think the Eagles are a perfect fit for Kolb. They are a first class organization that will put the team around Kolb for him to suceed.

    Kevin is gonna get a chance to sit behind McNabb and IMO that system fits him very very well. I just hope McNabb does not get hurt because Kolb needs to sit for a while.
