Quote:

The Eagles have sent two of their many fifth-round draft picks to the Pats for veteran cornerback Ellis Hobbs.

I would value Hobbs higher, but he is in the last year of his contract and is below-average CB, he is however a top returner.



Hobbs holds the NFL record for the longest NFL kick return with 108 yard return against the Jets in 2007.

kind off a nice trade seeing as you lost 2 star DB's. you know that him returning kicks won't happen with D-jax back there.

Hobbs is a horrible cover corner.

I dont know, i think id put hobbs 3rd string and keep Sheldon at 2nd.. Unless they are going to trade Sheldon away... we'll see what happens. : ) I love where this draft is going. : D

hobbs does his job in the real league but madden wise he is not a terrible cb he is actually fairly good...dependont on his speed and his attributes i will have a hard time figuring out if i will start him over sheldon brown speed wise but he will definately do the dirty work as the #3 cb

lol pats give eagles samuel then hobbs

eagles must love the pats defense lol

if they keep brown, the eagles are looking good. at least madden wise...lol DA BEARS!!! but for real they had a good draft. didn't they draft donald brown too at rb? he's gonna be a gooooood........

No they drafted LeSean McCoy, wich i think is going to be more succesful in the NFL.. hes going to back westbrook up for few years.. but i think hes eagles future runningback... i expect this guy to have a great career... : ) My hopes are high for eagles next year... Now would be a good time to bring that trophy to philadelphia = )

Eagles are going to be set next year if a few guys step it up.
