They'll go to the draft and get another RB, especially this year.
Now they have the room to go get someone like a Mike Ipuitati (sp?) and/or a Suh. People we don't want to see. They got rid of a RB with declining production for an injured LB. I consider the two players about even. I think the cap savings is really big, especially after they cut Ryans.

Eagles already had decent cap space, could go after anyone they wanted (they had more than us before this I believe)
