Fans of the Philadelphia Eagles have been clamoring for an impact linebacker, is Takeo Spikes up to the task?
Ron Jaworski and Sal Paolantonio were both on Philadelphia media saying that Takeo Spikes is an impact player and that this is a good trade for the Eagles. However a sports talk show host from Buffalo said that Spikes must be done for the Bills to trade him like this. So is this a good deal for the Eagles?
Why would the Bills make the trade if Spikes is still an impact player? The thinking is that they need the cap space just to sign draft picks.
