no offense, but if he can get a shot, I still believe Chris Snyder deserves one. He was with the lions for a preseason did fine but they still cut him(but when you have Jason Hanson in front of you its hard to get a job)

EJ Cochrane is a good kicker obviouslly but one of the main reasons he has signed with the eagles the previous two season's is because he is a left footed kicker. My understanding of the situation is that he has a very good kickoff that is good for preseason kickoff duties and that the eagles want a lefty in camp so the backup snappers and holders don't have to change their snaps and holds for akers who is also lefty. Congrats to EJ though and best of luck.
