I don't know, maybe Freddie Mitchell could stick around there as well, and at least help make first downs. What other wide receivers are available right now though? Boston, Galloway, Johnson, and McCarriens all are gone, snagged by other teams in desperate need of wide outs. Perhaps Philadelphia will be using a draft pick on a wide out.

The eagles wont be drafting a wide out in the draft i dont believe. They are probly going to trade james thrash. This leaves them w/ Owens and Pinkston starting and Freddie Mitchell in the slot. Pinkston actually has very good hands, he made numerous tough catches this past year. In response to Freddie Mitchell not catching enough TDs.... no kidding their whole recieving corps had like 7 TDs. Brian Westbrook had 6 i think. The addition of Owens will provide the Eagles w/ a WR who can beat press coverage and open the field for pinkston and mitchell.

come on....pinkston couldnt catch a cold. the best thing about the eagles now is that they will have a constant back in...if westbrook can stay healthy. if he does, and reid doenst play rb by commitee again, the eagles will finally have a BALANCED offense. and with T. O. running backs all over the field, mcnaab will be able to actually have a chance at taking off again.

agree with you packerfan.i think reid won't go with the runningback by committee now without duce.i believe you will go see buckhultor on the second and third short and goal line.i still think the eagles need another top wr.they will need to get it in the draft.the players the opposing team has covering wrs less players keeping track of westbrook out the backfield and mcnabb running.balance will be key.
