And actually, I'm surprised the Eagles let Dawkins go. They let Vincent and Taylor go when they got older (34 or so) but Dawkins has always been solid and is arguably the heart and soul of the Eagles so the move is strange. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to see the guy go.

Actually they did try to sign Springs to play safety. Probably free safety though. He was signed to play corner for NE and probably felt he had a better chance to get to a Super Bowl with the Pats. Replacing Dawkins is not going to be easy. He brought 100% when he played. I'll give him that.
