Eagles' Howie Roseman - Shouldn't he be a feel good story? Published at 3/11/2016
|
I haven't been watching ESPN so perhaps this is being covered but I haven't seen any like feel good piece on Howie Roseman of the Philadelphia Eagles. To review Chip Kelly basically muscled him out of his GM position a year ago. A position he was seemingly being goomed for and would hold for a long time under Lurie. Logs of conjecture on exactly how it went down but the end result was Roseman went from a GM type player in the front office to a guy who simply handled the paper work.
At the time some in local radio didn't even understand why he was still around though to me it seemed clear...plan B if Chip Kelly failed. So Chip Kelly has failed and now Roseman is getting his turn. And the guy is making the most of it. But I guess because he isn't a football guy..and is viewed as more of an accountant financial geeky type it's a story that's not getting told.
Well perhpas now it will as Roseman has gone to town doing a full reverse on whatever you call what Chip Kelly was doing. The way it's going I half expect to see DeSean Jackson and Foles back on the team before it's said and done.
Anyway..any Philly fans out there please explain to me the lack of love for Howie Roseman. I'm telling you if he succeeds in turning this around the whole Chip Kelly confrontation could be a scene in a MoneyBall type movie.
