EAGLES NEWS

The Eagles have placed Brandon Graham on IR with his ACL tear and to replace him they have signed Derrick Burgess, who memorably beat up on Mike Vick in the 2004 NFC championship game, and went on become a 2 time Pro Bowler after signing with the Raiders the following season. He had 5 sacks for the Patriots last season, but the Pats cut him before the season this year. He knows the Eagle's system already and has been successful playing it in the past so should be able to ease the sting of losing Graham. The Eagles just have to hope his skills haven't diminished too much.
