Saquon Barkley bolts NY Giants for rival Eagles in 3-year, $37.75M deal | NFL | UNDISPUTED

man how are you is the question yeah

well I'm about to find out I want you to

start us off by giving this SE want to

the Eagles deal a grade it's an A A it's

an A and I tried to tell you about

saquan Barkley top of the the the list

at the running back position you have

tried and you won't listen but when you

look at it the running back position for

some reason is valuable again they just

basically flew off the shelf all those

guys the running back the running backs

that was available yesterday everybody

basically is gone except der der Henry

Derrick Henry is the only guy and he's

waiting for the right deal to make that

move now you talk about the Philadelphia

Eagles and what they've been able to do

they had DeAndre Swift didn't work at

the level that they wanted it to so they

went got better both in the Run game and

in the passing game saquan Barkley is

just I I don't know what else to say

about him this is the best offensive

group that he will have been with in his

entire shortterm care career when you

think about some of the players on the

perimeter and AJ Brown and Devonte Smith

and G the tight end and Jaylen hers at

the running back position the RPA the

RPO game for the Philadelphia Eagles

just got that much better I mean it it

it really did and I know you don't want

to hear it because you're a Dallas

Cowboy guy and sayquan Barkley just went

up the road or down the road or whatever

they say on the east coast to

Philadelphia when you talk about some of

the things that the Eagles have done in

the past in the off Seasons they've gone

out and they've upgraded almost every

single year they try to get better they

don't stand Pat they saw St K Barkley on

the market and look they gave him three

years 37 million 26 million fully

guaranteed it deals up to $47 million if

he hits all the incentives and all the

other stuff that goes into that the New

York Giants didn't see that value

because it's not because he wasn't a

player that couldn't play they need a

lot they got to restructure their

offensive line they got to do things at

the defensive side they got to find a

wide receiver they made one of the

biggest colossal mistakes in all of

football a year ago when they decided

not to get the deal done with sequan

Barkley instead they paid the

quarterback and I know quarterbacks said

at premium but not Daniel Jones not

Daniel Jones Daniel Jones was they could

have done any type of deal with him and

he would have accepted it sayquon

Barkley for two years tried to get a

deal a long-term deal done with them and

it didn't happen Philadelphia Eagles

said okay they stepped up to the plate

because they feel that they've at least

gotten even with the Dallas Cowboys

right now they may be slightly above

depending on you're asking yes they lose

Kevin Bayard that they picked up he's

gone to the Chicago Bears Kel retired

and then Fletcher Cox retired they still

got a replace the center position one of

the greatest centers to ever played a

game who knows what they got in store

they may have somebody there that they

feel real good about and Kelsey knows

that that's one of the reasons why he

just said okay you guys are in good

hands I like what Philadelphia has done

thus far bringing in Barkley I know you

may not like it but I

do and I will restate what I've told you

for whatever it's been two three weeks

that we have talked about this saquan

Barkley to Philadelphia doesn't scare me

one bit as a Cowboy fan okay I think you

have been blinded by the lights as in

the highlights I think you see the

highlights and you don't see the many

low lights I think he has been

dramatically overrated in large part

because he played in the Big Apple the

Apple of everybody's eye in New York

City and people kept waiting and waiting

and waiting for him to take off and

nothing happened he's been there for six

years this will be his seventh year he

did tear his ACL so he missed most of

one year and they made it to the

playoffs once and they did win a playoff

game at Minnesota and then they got bum

rushed out of Philadelphia 38

to7 okay

so I'll just back up what I'm saying I I

read an analysis on espn.com by Seth

Walder their analytics guy and and I'll

just he said exactly what I've been

trying to tell you for three weeks maybe

even a month he said while saquin is a

huge name the number don't suggest that

he's that level of player

anymore and he concludes the difference

between Barkley at this stage of his

career and an average starter is

small and Barkley is in Decline and I've

tried to tell you the number is start to

fade and fade and just slowly slowly did

he mention offensive line at all in his

article no he did not it's just a little

annales here but they gave him a ton of

money for what he is or what he has been

and I'm going to give you my analogy

again saquin can hit you home runs he's

the classic if I can use a baseball

analogy home run hitter who leads the

league in

strikeouts and bats 220 he is the

classic case of a player against my

Dallas Cowboys and you laugh every time

I say this but I'm going to throw it out

there again because it's the truth and

it has impact as we speak right now

within the confines of the NFC East New

York's biggest rival is the Dallas

Cowboys that's the one they get the most

to up for not the Philadelphia Eagles

not Washington it's the Dallas freaking

Cowboys and against my Cowboys saquin is

now zero and 10 in 10 games he still

hasn't beaten the Cowboys and in 10

games he has managed to Eclipse a 100

yards only twice and in those two games

that he went over 100 he had a home run

he had a 68 Y and in the other 100 yard

game he had a 59 Yer and if if you do

the math on all the other carries it's

going to come out to like 2.6 yards per

because he can't hammer away between the

tackles he can't establish the Run he

can't move those change he he is not the

kind of player that that is so

Transcendent that he can take over

football games for you because that's

not the way he's built he's Flash and

he's Dash and up there going back two

years ago Cooper Rush won the game after

sequan got loose for I think it was 45

yards in the third quarter and all of a

sudden they're up and the stands are

going crazy and Cooper Rush goes backto

back 80 yard drives touchdown touchdown

game over I I just haven't seen it and I

I watch as closely as I can watch and I

I don't get what you're seeing because

you see highlights you get caught up in

Splash and I don't see enough actually

see a running back that if he had skill

position players and a quarterback

behind him offensive line he could do a

lot of dirty work okay okay he can hurt

your feelings that's what I see now you

keep pointing to somebody playing

against the Cowboys and not having the

success that you think they should have

against the Cowboys now Aaron Jones had

a lot of success against Cowboys he he

just found another home in Minnesota

that was a big Mist on green it might

have been a big mistake it may have may

or may not I don't we're not there yet

but all I'm saying is I don't judge

somebody's success against one team you

can't do that I also got to look at

everything around them again I said this

to you before then I'll say it again

this is the best offensive unit that s

con Barkley will have played with on top

of that this is the best offensive unit

in my opinion that the new offensive

coordinator in Kell Moore will be

coordinating even as the stops in Dallas

with the zekes and Ami Coopers and the

young CD Lambs in in in Schultz this is

a better unit than those guys because

this is a little more seasoned these

guys have a little more seasoned to them

you may disagree because it's the

Philadelphia Eagles and and as far as

the Giants rival is the Dallas Cowboys

feels like it's the Philadelphia Eagles

to me just simply based on what Tiki

barara had to say a boss say qun Barkley

going right was it is it down the road

or up the road Skip it's down down the

road to Philadelphia you don't like it

but you don't like it cuz you're afraid

and you don't want to say you afraid

it's

okay they've been they've been the but

forget his team that he was with talk

about the team that he's with now yeah

okay that's the team all right that team

I just watched lose six of its last

seven games true we also watched the two

seasons ago go to the Super Bowl but

that team got blown out at Tampa by

Baker Mayfield in his playoff game 32

to9 AJ Brown in the lineup amongst other

players all right maybe something was

going on between AJ and J maybe that's

the truth he didn't play yeah maybe

that's the truth okay so the point is is

saquin that much better than DeAndre

Swift was last year I I you know what

I'll give you a touch better but but not

significantly better not lifechanging

better he will benefit from being with

Jaylen Herz in that offensive Run game

will benefit from having him he is a

dual threat skip this is not a twood

down back he is legitimately a three

down back legitimately no there's not a

lot of three down backs still in the

National Football League yep he's got

thunder thighs and I forget what he ran

the four was he four four and the four

four dude or whatever uh squatting

whatever 800 lbs or whatever it is that

he's putting on his back Breakaway speed

I I give you all the above but so you

going to sit here and tell me that the

the the the New York Giants offensive

line is

good I you know what it it's it wasn't

terrible his skill position tack his

skill position players that played with

him were by the way Philadelphia gave

Landon Dickerson their guard yesterday

like a ton of money obviously must be

good he must be good because must you

know again I don't watch that closely

that interior part you couldn't tell me

you couldn't tell me one skill position

player player outside of obj that saquan

Barkley made a play with in his early

career in New York you couldn't tell me

not one dude okay but you can easily

tell me what Philadelphia

has yeah I'll give you AJ when he's

right with J give me AJ but no Devonte

Smith no gu the tight end he's okay he

he has never scared me because he has

never killed us before he's good so the

me so your measuring stick for

professional professional uh football

players you gauge them based on playing

against the Dallas Cowboys I mean that's

what I I'm a prisoner of that but if you

go 0 and 10 against your arch division

rival doesn't matter though he wasn't

team if the te first of all Joe judge

was prior to Joe judge who was the coach

uh was it pat shmer who was the head

coach oh anyway it was somebody that

wasn't good yeah and then you get Joe

judge as a coach y oh Ben madoo B madoo

come on now skip yep mhm Ben madoo was

the coach yeah and then you get Joe

judge okay life has changed okay now

it's Nick serani who just went to a

Super Bowl prior to that who's been to

the playoffs three straight years as the

head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles

including in a Super Bowl appearance

that they very easily could have won

very easily I thought he was going to

lose his job after they lost six of the

last seven that that that's the the the

noise

that rises when things like that happen

okay now let's deal with yesterday's

controversy that you pointed out that

you mentioned TIY barar on his WF

show said with a smile and a chuckle

because I listen to it so he's chuckling

he doesn't seem to be taking it very

seriously and he said of Squan going to

Philadelphia he's dead to us now you're

dead to a saquin good luck you're dead

to me and saquin took that so personally

he took it so seriously even though Tiki

told ESPN that he was just tongue and

Chic when he said it but Barkley fired

back at

him yeah LOL yep you're the prime

example of loyalty to a team he's

shooting a tiki here I got the deal I

wanted secured more GM guaranteed money

which wasn't given to me before by the

Giants so if fans are going to hate me

for that so be it but I never turned my

back on my teammates and always had

theirs then he followed up with another

post uh Tiki Barber you've been a hater

since I got to New York and all the dead

to me talk don't smile in my face when

you see me okay maybe they will run into

each other and yet I think that Tiki can

still smile in Sean's face because I

don't think he was that serious with his

comment

here you

know Tiki Barber has been known to throw

shade he yes at Giant players and ex

giant players of that nature I think

he's objective um I didn't hear the

comment I've only read the comment and

I've read seon Barkley and if seon

Barkley feels that Tiki Barbara has been

this way since he landed in New York

there's something that's there that he

sees that we don't he obviously feels

that this man has an issue with him he's

always keeping his name in his mouth now

whether it's tongue and cheek and a

little smirk of a smile the New York

Giants did this not sayquan Barkley they

allowed him to become a free agent they

did and part of becoming a free agent

means that you now have the opportunity

to go out into the Free World of

professional football and look to get a

deal that will secure your financial

future for as long as you can and he did

that whether it was down the road up the

road around the corner across the street

through the tunnel whatever the case may

B he decided and the Philadelphia Eagles

decided the same thing that it took two

and a half years to try to get a deal

done with the New York Giants that made

sense long term the Philadelphia Eagles

did it in less than 24 damn hours they

did probably less than that less than 24

I just say 24 because it started

yesterday and here we are today they did

it fast but what team knows saquan

better than any team knows Squan the New

York football Giants and they said no to

sequan said stupid is what they said

they paid Daniel Jones okay that didn't

make no sense all right at all when you

the best player on your team see when

people make executive mistakes paying

somebody they shouldn't pay when the

best guy is this guy and you make an

executive decision oh I'm gonna pay the

quarterback because I have to pay him

because he's a quarterback and he's no

no saquan Barkley is your best offensive

player so you should I don't that's true

I I think the year before Dan Jones

you're underestimating and dismissing

what he did the year before they made

the playoffs because of Daniel Jones

because saquan Barkley was in that

lineup okay it it made life much easier

for Daniel Jones I'm sure it did but in

the end at quarterback you have to play

quarterback you have to do what

quarterback Jones didn't like the world

on fire man did he's a nice he can move

he had a nice season a nice season he

did he won a playoff game against the

guy we're about to talk about Kirk

cousins at Minnesota he won like that's

saying a lot well Cooper C Cooper cup

Cooper Rush walked into that building he

did and lit up Minnesota in his first

start ever okay Y and then somebody else

walked in that building I think Dak

Prescott walked in thereon did and Andy

like come on you're acting like the

Minnesota Vikings you Minnesota Vikings

is just some cold blooded Killers or

something well that's what Atlanta

thinks right now well that's Atlanta's

fault I ain't got nothing to do with

that that's their money I ain't M or

Arthur Blank will figure it out okay so

to me this comes across like saquon's

priorities are all wrong here because

he's leaving his heart in New York he's

an eagle now whether he likes it or not

and he got his GM as in guaranteed money

just go because C because he doesn't he

is cutting ties but at the same time I'm

not going to have you throw shade at me

and I'm supposed to just ignore what

you're saying when you've been messing

with me my entire career you constantly

are picking at me or whatever their

issues are he addressed it I have no

problem with it at all because he got

his guaranteed money when the New York

Giants were not trying to pay him the

New York Giants didn't want to pay him

they didn't want to pay him a year ago

the year before that and they didn't

want to pay him this year maybe that's

significant maybe you should take that

to your saquan bank no no it's not

significant it's first of all it makes

sense if you're the Giants your team is

bad your team is bad you don't have a

good football team you need more pieces

than what you have they got one in fact

you need a quarterback fact you need a

quarterback yeah they got Brian Burns

they paid him a a boatload I I don't

think Daniel Jones is nearly as bad as

you're dismissing him as I I mean he's

had his moments if if you take a team to

the playoffs League every single mock

draft and the mock draft doesn't mean

anything but it just shows you that

people are looking at the quarterback

position and said they should grab a

quarterback with the sixth pick I think

it's six everybody's saying that y okay

and he did that he took them to the

playoffs and that's why they gave him

his money and he was more valuable in

that squ I can point to a whole bunch of

people that take a team or as a

quarterback of a team that go to a

playoff Victory didn't lose the Dallas

Cowboys and Dak Prescott was a second

seed thank you and they went to the

playoffs and lost yeah and you want us

to pay him another boat load well you

should yeah you should you should back

the truck up yeah back the truck

so the point is we got one other tweet

here from Micah

Parsons who responded to sequan signing

with with again what I surely believe is

tongue and cheek tweet because he did

three emojis laughing crying emojis

before he said sickening that was the

one word that he tweeted so I think he's

just chuckling about it like it's

sickening haha because they both went to

penate sickening how he's saying is is

sickening that the Philadelphia Eagles

landed saquan Barkley when the Dallas

Cowboys didn't land anybody that's what

Michael Parson is saying yeah it's it's

sickening to see okay a guy that that

went to the same school as me although

they didn't cross paths on the playing

field they still know each other they

worked out they're both from the PA area

he saying that the Dallas Cowboys should

have much like I said uh uh uh look at

sayquan Barkley now maybe they don't

want to spend that type of money maybe

they don't because somebody they they um

Pard wind up leaving he did and then

they flirted around with another running

back but he wind up leaving and getting

$4 million from somebody I can't think

off the top of my head but it was a

running back that they thought about

taking a look at that they liked so

maybe he's just saying we probably

should have done that okay I would buy

now I got to play against this dude

again okay I would buy what you're

saying if he had just gone posted one

coldblooded word sickening but when you

put the laugh cry emojis in front of it

he's laughing at y'all he's laughing at

his own

1,00 million that he's laughing at the

Dallas Cowboys and he's just laughing

like this is sickening this is

ridiculous okay and he's just going to

go to Philadelphia and continue to

terrorize us because we're 10 and0

against him right but you keep okay

you're saying you're 10 and0 against him

this is not a pitcher on the mound going

up against a club that has his number

because they understand his pitch count

they understand understand what he is oh

this is not that this is football this

is one person this is not just because

his team is 10 and0 in their last 10

tries against you doesn't mean it's on

him his teams are B I just told you

madoo was the

coach think about it all right and think

about this and Joe judge was the coach

Aaron Jones has played the Dallas

Cowboys four times and his teams are

better four times and he's gone way over

100 yards all four times offensive line

is better his quarterback Aaron Rogers

and Jordan love was better interesting

his receivers were better he kills us

Devonte Adams Romeo they were better

Romeo do to Devonte Adams big game

player they're going to miss him baktiar

big time offensive lineman and they let

him go better yeah they finally said no

to him oh that's that that's they fult

they got to figure that out he'll

probably wind up with the Jets or

something yeah Mike is not afraid

playing saquan but I'll give you this I

I'll give you one point I didn't say he

was afraid of playing saquan I'll give

you this Philadelphia will probably beat

Dallas at Philadelphia so sequan will

finally get to after next year sounds

like he be one in 11 no I think I think

Philadelphia I think Philadelphia beat

us in the fourth quarter at home this

year I they probably should beat us

again next year stay in bounds you got

to stay in bounds right okay but if you

did if had stayed in bounds we might win

that game yes and if was a fifth we you
