IRVING (105.3 THE FAN) - We now know that the Eagles' wooing of DeMarco Murray is not nearly as serious as some (like, Murray's agent) would like us to believe. But that doesn't mean Philly players can't daydream about the idea of the NFL's leading rusher joining the Cowboys' rival.
"I don't like the Cowboys,'' tweeted Philly defensive back Malcolm Jenkins. "But I do like DeMarco Murray …. Come on over to the dark side bro! We'll treat you good!''

Again, in reality, there are no indications the Eagles are treating DeMarco at all, as they are closing in on signing Ryan Mathews as the replacement for the traded LeSean McCoy. (We'll soon see if any team comes close to signing with Murray; I'm told that he may have gotten an offer from Jacksonville but if so, to this point, it's clearly not much of a lure.)
But just in case, DeMarco's buddy and Cowboys road-trip roomie Dez Bryant has a reply.
"Go there if you want,'' he tweeted to Murray and Jenkins, "and watch what happens. lol.''
