Chester Taylor seems to be the right guy.

[chucklehead]

Taylor is still young enough to be relevant.

Tomlinson might be a great fit, too. Might be the perfect system for him also. Get him out in space and let him catch the ball and make moves after instead of contact at the line of scrimmage.

Hmmmm.

I hope his names not LeGarrette Blount

Lol I was just thinking Blount would go well with McCoy.

The only thing is that the Eagles have never seemed to do much with the "big" backs, altho there is only very small sample size to go on (the PSU kid who's name escapes me, and the UH kid they drafted in the 7th, who's name escapes me). They've had more success with guys like Buckhalter as the #2. More middle sized guys (220ish) with some pop and quickness and a decent overall skill set, blocking is big for there HB's

As much as I hate to say it, if they Cowboys sever ties with Barber, the Eagles would be retarded not to snatch him up. He doesnt have the tread to carry the load, but he fits everything the Eagles want as a backup HB. Still a good runner, underrated checkdown type receiving threat, and is among if not the best at blitz pickup.

Although I think Barber can be a total ass clown at times, I would be in favor of this move big-time.

they dont need blount, they will re-sign weaver who has proven he can get the short yardage. like dawk said chester taylor is a prime canidate.

[86WARD]

Trade for Michael Bush. My money is on Chester Taylor. Already knows most of the offense, still has a lot of gas left in the tank...Chester may want a starting gig though.

[smeagle]

that is true and taylor has proven he can handle the starting role although not over an entire season really. but knowing this offense is a huge plus. barber is another thought if the cowboys release him. beyond the help he'd give us in the running game he'd also give the team some inside info.
