The news just doesn’t stop coming. In the last few days the Eagles have removed the two most damaging contracts on the roster, signed a new corner, a new safety and are now turning their attention to the Offensive Line if reports are to be accurate.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport has stated that the Eagles latest acquisition is former Texans Guard Brandon Brooks.
Brooks has exploded in recent years as one of the top young Guards in the NFL..it’s clear to see why the Eagles would be willing to spend $40M on him.
At the 6-5, 335-pounds, the former third round draft pick was set to enter Free Agency and with the market for guards gaining more and more interest, the Eagles were right to strike hard and fast by picking up the 26 year old who has emerged as one of the top Free Agents in his position
