Re: Eagles Acquire Jason Peters

Actually, I don't see anything wrong with this move. The Eagles have tons of picks to play around with and to give up only a late 1st rounder and a fourth (plus a 6th next year) isn't a lot when you're talking about adding a PRO BOWL LT.
They still have picks to fill holes (Dawkins, RB, LB, DB, and WR...still).
If we had 8 picks and a decent cap situation, I'd have no problem pulling the trigger on a deal like this. Peter's is a NFL ready tackle and will most likely better than any other tackle they could draft at the 28th spot. Yeah they could've drafted Otah last year and kept this year's pick but that's hindsight.
We have four measly picks, so trading two of them doesn't make sense, even for a player of Peters caliber - we have way too many holes to fill. And as far as Peters giving up 11 sacks last year, he might have trouble with the Giants and Cowboys but I'm sure he'll shut us out seeing how we have no real threat to rush the passer.
As much as I hate the Eagles and their fans, I think it was a good move.
