Phew. Yesterday it was looking like the Eagles may bring in Corey "Over-The-Hill" Dillon, Chris Brown or Ron Dayne to backup Westbrook at RB. Today, the news broke that the Eagles have finally managed to exhibit a little common sense, they signed Corell Buckhalter to come back as the second string RB.
Nothing Earth-shattering, which is a very good thing. Going out and over-paying for Dillon, Brown or Dayne would've been a stupid move with little-to-no upside. Buckhalter contributes (when he's healthy). He's got enough speed to break a run every now and then, enough power to pick up tough yards and he can catch the ball coming out of the backfield. I'm pretty sure I could outrun Dillon, Brown and Dayne at this point in their careers.

Bet on the Sixers with Sports Interactions NBA betting lines
I'd really like to see Moats get more carries this year. I know he can be a little fumble prone but he could break some big ones as well. I'd still like Leonard if he's available in the 2nd round. Draft a linebacker or safety in the first. If we do get Leonard then we can probably trade Moats and move up in the third round. Being a Philly fan sucks. I run my mouth more then anyone yet my teams haven't won a championship since what 83 when I was 3?
