The Eagles don't really have any glaring holes besides WR, which can be addressed in the late first and second rounds of the draft. This year's receiving class is fairly deep.

You could argue that safety is a need and the safety class beyond Kenny Phillips is very weak, and he would definitely be off the board by the time the Eagles pick, but they're still not likely going to move up to get him. They'll definitely be looking to grab a WR (probably Malcom Kelly) or a DE (Derrick Harvey) in the first round.
Actually my diehard Ravens fan buddy told me about three days ago there's a rumour that the Ravens are shopping their 8th over-all pick in search of a QB.

You're an Eagles fan aren't ya RC? Because I want your honest opinion on something. Personally, I think if the Eagles let McNabb walk they'll regret it for years, I think he's incredibly underrated in Philly. You obviously know your team a lot better than myself so I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.
