Somebody else wanted Greg Lewis?

Apparently, Andy Reid isn't the only person who thinks Greg Lewis belongs on an NFL roster. New England head coach Bill Belichick just gave the Eagles a fifth round pick for the roster space filler known as G-Lew.

Maybe something is wrong with Belichick if he is jettisoning Matt Cassell and Mike Vrabel for just a second round pick, and then actually going out of his way to bring in Greg Lewis, who only plays well against the Patriots, scoring a TD in the Super Bowl, and then two more in the Eagles' near upset of the undefeated Patriots in 2007.

The Eagles seem to be on a path of getting rid of fan-favorites, but making up for it by shipping off some of the most hated players on the team this offseason. The fans loved Brian Dawkins and Jon Runyan, but good riddance to Greg Lewis, Sean Considine and, most of all, L.J. Smith.

At this rate, there won't be a single Eagle that I despise next year, unless Reno Mahe comes back to be Brian Westbrook's back up.

Just for the record, I do NOT believe that the Eagles made this trade because Terrell Owens is coming back. However, I would not be surprised if Torry Holt became an Eagle once he is released by the Rams, which will happen before March 17, when he is due a $1.25-million roster bonus.

The Eagles would be smart to send this pick to the Rams for Holt so that another team doesn't swoop in and trade for the man who had his string of eight consecutive 1,000-yard seasons snapped in 2008.
