At 6:00 pm EST tonight, the Eagles whittled down their roster to the league-mandated 53 players. Some decisions were no-brainers, while others had to be very difficult. However, the current roster is by no means final as we currently have seven wide receivers and only two tight ends. Expect trades, signings, or both to come over the next day or so. ESPN's Adam Schefter has already reported that the Patriot's tight end corps are in for "a wild day."
