The Eagles had a busy day today. First they agreed to a 5 year $28 million deal with Jason Babin, re-uniting him with D-line coach Jim Washburn. Babin registerted 12.5 sacks last season with the Titans, but had little impact for any other team, including the Eagles, in previous seasons. Hopefully Washburn can keep him playing at a high level, in which case he'll fill the Eagles need for a left defensive end to team with Trent Cole and be a perfect stopgap until 2010 1st round pick Brandon Graham can get healthy enough to show what he can do. Not long after that the Eagles executed a bigger move, sending Kevin Kolb to the Cardinals for CB Antonio Rodgers-Cromartie and a 2012 2nd round pick. Cromartie was a pro-bowler 2 years ago but struggled last season on very poor Cardinals team. If he can return to his pro-bowl form from 2009 the Eagles will be set at CB for years to come.
