I think that a bigger deal than T.O. (I know, it's hard to believe) are the absences of Brian Westbrook (holdout) and Corey Simon (refuses to sign franchise tender). There isn't an every down back on the Eagles roster (including Westbrook, come to think of it) and the absence of the prohibitive starter has to be a concern. Simon may not be the lynchpin of the Eagles D, but they think enough of him to pay him the average of the top three at his position. It's hard to believe that they don't have plans for him.\
