Philadelphia Eagles 2007 Draft Preview
Football Betting Lines
04/04/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Outside linebacker and defensive tackle were two of the Eagles' biggest need areas entering the offseason, but a trade for ex-Bill Takeo Spikes and the acquisition of former Colt Montae Reagor helped offset those respective requirements. Depth behind those players and end Jevon Kearse, all three of whom have missed significant time due to injury of late, will remain a focus, however. The weakest spot on the field for Philadelphia in 2006 was at strong safety, though there is unlikely to be a natural first- round fit for the team in that area. On the other side of the football, there is sentiment within the organization that a club can never have too many offensive linemen, and more value will be placed on that unit than the running back and receiving corps. If the Eagles take a skill player, he will probably be a running back that can challenge Correll Buckhalter for the No. 2 job behind Brian Westbrook.
