Eagles Make Big Free Agent Moves



The Philadelphia Eagles have not been known for making great choices in the free agency or the NFL draft but have already made a step forward this time around. Offensive tackle Stacy Andrews has been signed for 6 years to the Eagles taking over the right tackle position for free agent John Runyan. At 6'7 and 342 pounds there is no doubt he's one of the biggest players on the team behind newbies Nick Cole and Max Jean-Gilles, but how well will he actually play? Though he has been recovering from a right knee injury the Eagles believe he will be ready to play to full potential. The NFL has labeled Stacey as an up and coming star and with Donovan McNabb getting jittery under pressure there is no question they need good protection to make a run this season. Many moves have already been made in the last few days, here is a rap of the eagles free agent activity.

WR Hank Baskett: 1 year with Philadelphia

RB Correll Buckhalter: 4 years with Denver

C/G Nick Cole: 1 year with Philadelphia

S Sean Considine: 2 years with Jacksonville

LB Tank Daniels: 1 year with Philadelphia

FS Brian Dawkins: Expected 2 years with Denver

CB Joselio Hanson: 5 years with Philadelphia

TE L.J. Smith: Expected to sign with Atlanta
