Eagles trade for LB Will Witherspoon?


From Philadelphiaeagles.com...

 

The Eagles have traded WR Brandon Gibson and a 2010 fifth-round draft pick to St. Louis for linebacker Will Witherspoon ...
Not yet, at least.

Something could emerge in the next several minutes. I honestly, truly don't know what is being discussed behind the scenes. I just know from experience that there is always something going on. Whether the talks reach the finish line, I don't know.

This would be a nice pick up for the birds imo.. from what I have seen from him over the years has nice speed hopefully will give our LB corps a boost.

We need a LB who can cover TEs and from what i remember and guessing hence the trade is that Witherspoon can do that.

C'mon Reid!!!!!

I know we need a cover LB, but witherspoon?
I was really hoping we got D. Johnson from the cheifs or one of the raiders LB’s.
Even davis from the panthers would be better.I think the only reason we traded for Witherspoon is because he knows the system and can contribute right away.
