Philadelphia Eagles re-sign Joselio Hanson

by Ryan Van Bibber on Sep 7, 2011 10:10 AM CDT in 2011 NFL regular season

Have the Philadelphia Eagles re-signed recently released CB Joselio Hanson? Maybe. Geoff Mosher from the Wilmington News Journal said on Twitter moments ago that Hanson was back with the Eagles. He has confirmed the news.

Here's exactly what Mosher said:

Breaking: I'm told Joselio Hanson is back. I think that means he re-signs with Eagles. Stay tuned...

If the Eagles have indeed re-signed Hanson, that means one of the most attractive cornerback options is off the market. The Rams had some interest in Hanson, but not as much as some thought; it was more of "right price" level of interest.

Carolina nabbed Darius Butler off waivers, essentially replacing C.J. Wilson on their roster. Wilson, you'll recall, was at Rams Park yesterday for a workout.

Hanson's re-addition might be more about keeping him from the Giants, per Mosher. The Eagles may look to move some of their other corners, Trevard Lindley or Brandon Hughes, for a late round draft pick. Both of the undersized youngsters could fit the nickel role, but would they have enough experience?

It's probably too late for the Rams to add a corner in time to play against the Eagles this week.

UPDATE: The Eagles release Trevard Lindley to counter the Hanson addition. He's available on waivers.

Figures

let’s hope we’re not talking about a desperate need for a CB on Monday. That’ll mean only one thing………we got scorched

I would like to see

Quentin Mikell get 2 picks this week though. I would be willing to trade the 2nd one for a pick-six

I don’t think bringing back Jose was just about keeping him away from the Giants, he’s one of the better slot CBs in the league & now we got him cheaper then what he was before. I’m thinking it’s Trevard Lindley that either gets traded or released, the Eagles are really high on Brandon Hughes. Some of us want it to be Colt Anderson who’s a special teams ace because we think he won’t be as needed with the new rules but I have a feeling that they’ll keep him.

Pick up Lindley

He wasn’t being used right in Philly and has the size to work out for us. I’d like to see him picked up anyway.

He wasn’t good enough to get on the field for us

our standards aren't as high

In fact i got a call this morning from DeVaney. They still need a gelatinous O-lineman.

I wonder if we did get him if he could play Sunday

I never understood the waiver wire all that well, so I'm not sure how many teams get a crack at him before we do?

by Douglas M on Sep 7, 2011 11:36 AM CDT up reply actions

In order of the last draft

so carolina first, etc.

But the player can deny going to the team who is claiming him off waiver right?

I suppose he could always refuse to sign

I can’t imagine why one would do that if given the opportunity to play or even get paid.

My Philly-Fan buddy, just texted me this:

( DeSean only getting $600,000 this season. LOL )
My response was:
How will you resign him, with Vick’s salary, Samuels, Namhdi, Cromartie, McCoy, Brown, Celek, Macklin, Hanson, etc??
Then I said: We’ll trade $600,100 worth of “whatever,” for him to play out the season with us, then we’ll resign him to a long term deal.
He replied: LMAO…..
