the official 53...sorta

knowin the Philadelphia Eagles, they're always makin some changes...just recently they picked up DE Antwan Barnes from the Baltimore Ravens. supposedly, they been eyein him since the '07 but the Ravens picked him in the 4th round. now Barnes gets to be an Eagle and we gave up another 2011 draft pick...yay? but as the deadline approached, the Eagles made their cuts and not to my suprises, i was pretty close

players that got cut were: Jeff Owens, Chad Hall, Fenuki Tupou, A.Q. Shipley, Cornelius Ingram (called it! too injury prone), Dallas Reynolds, Victor Harris, Kelley Washington, Eric Moncur, Quintin Demps, Jordan Norwood (picked up on the practice squad of the Cleveland Browns)

LB Tracy White got traded to the New England Patriots and G Stacy Andrews got traded to the Seattle Seahawks (which by the way released WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh!)

i liked Hall and Mallett but weren't surprised they got cut...but Andrews, Harris, and Demps i'm EXCITED they did - boo and woo-hoo!!

on the brighter side, the Birds signed 8 to the practice squad includin: WR Chad Hall (yay!), RB Martell Mallett (yay!), DT Jeff Owens, C A.Q. Shipley, G Dallas Reynolds, and 3 new people TE Garret Mills, WR Jeremy Williams and S Chip Vaughn
