Draft day is upon us
Posted on 22. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
The day is finally upon us and we will soon see some new faces added to the Eagles roster. Some will make the team, some will be cut before the season starts. Hopefully, some will find themselves as starters on opening day and others will find themselves getting significant playing time. Howie Roseman has said [...]

My thoughts on the Eagles 2010 schedule
Posted on 21. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Until the draft goes down tomorrow night, the Eagles schedule will be a popular topic. It’s going to be no easy road for them, and it’s not just because they may or may not be “rebuilding.” The Eagles will open their season at home against the Green Bay Packers. For the many who compared Kevin [...]

Eagles trade for a LB
Posted on 19. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
After just talking today about the Eagles taking a linebacker prospect early in the draft, the Eagles have made a trade in order to acquire Ernie Sims from the Detroit Lions. Sims spent four seasons in Detroit, recording over 100 tackles in his first three season but not reaching the mark in 2009 as he [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Brandon Spikes
Posted on 19. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Last season wasn’t a very good year for the Eagles linebackers. There was a lot of rotation going on and the Eagles couldn’t seem to find a group of players that could get the job done. When Stewart Bradley went down last year, the Eagles struggled to fill his shoes. He will be returning this [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Taylor Mays
Posted on 16. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
If you want to talk about speed in this year’s NFL Draft, you’ve got to talk about Taylor Mays, the safety out of USC. This guy is an absolute freak. He stands at 6-3 225 pounds and can run like a freight train. There was a lot of controversy surrounding his NFL Combine 40-yard dash [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Mike Iupati
Posted on 15. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Although the Eagles need a lot of help on defense, they could definitely use some help on the interior of their line. The top interior lineman in this year’s draft is Mike Iupati out of Idaho. Standing at 6-6 330 pounds, Iupati is a load in the middle and has been getting a lot of [...]

2009 Season in Review: Week Twelve
Posted on 14. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
In Week Twelve, the Eagles had a matchup with a familiar foe. They would play the Redskins, a few days after Thanksgiving, looking for their second win against the divisional rival. The Redskins played the Eagles tough in their prior matchup so the Eagles knew this would be no walk in the park despite the [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Kyle Wilson
Posted on 13. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
As I mentioned earlier today, the Eagles are definitely in the market for a young talented cornerback after trading Sheldon Brown. Kyle Wilson could very well be the man for the job. Out of Boise State, Wilson stands at 5-10 186 pounds and is rated by Mel Kiper as the fourth best available cornerback. In [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Kareem Jackson
Posted on 13. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
When the Eagles traded Sheldon Brown, it was a bit of a surprise. They already had a lot of holes on defense, but created another one by dealing Brown. After the move, many mock drafts have the Eagles selecting a cornerback with their first round pick. Kareem Jackson is one of the players they could [...]

2010 Draft Prospect: Sergio Kindle
Posted on 12. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Sergio Kindle is a very talented outside linebacker out of Texas. He is an impact player and is very athletic with nice size. At 6-4 255 pounds, Kindle can rush with power but also has some pretty nice speed to go with it. Kindle ran a 4.71 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine this [...]

What will Michael Vick’s role be in 2010?
Posted on 09. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
When Donovan McNabb was traded to Washington, Kevin Kolb shifted up into the starting role. However, this wasn’t the only shift that was made on the depth chart. Michael Vick also shifted up and is listed as the Eagles backup quarterback. Since no one made a move for him and it seems very likely he [...]
