Stephen Davis Visiting Philly Today

Eagles fans everywhere have been begging for a power running back to compliment Brian Westbrook. Today the Eagles brought in 10 year veteran Stephen Davis for a "physical and interview."

The two biggest question mark positions in camp have clearly been the receivers (you know your receivers are weak when a video game says they stink) and the backfield. There is a lot of concern, as there is every year, especially with Westbrook's recent injuries, that Brian can't go an entire season without getting injured. Personally, I think BWest will be fine and have a very productive year and will be the biggest weapon on the Eagles offense. I do see legitimate reasons to be a little concerned with the depth at the position. Ryan Moats seems to have made little progress from his rookie season and at times appears to have regressed. Betting on Buckhalter to play a full season is like betting on Terrell Owens to have a controversy free year. Mahe, Perry, and Tapeh have shown fans almost nothing to get excited about.

The bottom line with Stephen Davis is if he is healthy and can put up performances like he did years ago he could prove to be a savvy signing by Andy Reid if he chooses to go that route.
